Skinny Sake builds software for tasting rooms.

We’re an independent company, first market Bay Area tasting rooms, founded 2026.

Our thesis: sake — and wine, at rooms that run the same way — fails after the pour. Not because the pour was bad, but because the guest leaves with no name attached, no record of what they preferred, and no follow-up. The room did the hard part and then let the relationship end at the door.

Skinny Sake is the software that catches that moment: a QR code that turns a pour into a captured lead, a companion the guest actually uses during the flight, and one follow-up email that closes the loop instead of starting a newsletter.

We’re starting with sake kura because that’s the room we know first. Wine rooms run the same job the same way, and are next.
