Operator who builds.

I run a handful of small businesses on the San Antonio River Walk and in Southtown. I taught myself to code, and now most of what I run has software behind it that I wrote myself.

// 00 / Who

Joel Panchèvre

Started a lot,
kept a few.

I have started something like ten businesses since 2012. A pizzeria, a CBD shop, indoor mini golf, microgreens, a few odder ones. Some worked, some closed. The ones open now are a frozen-drink bar, a candy store, and an e-bike shop. Somewhere in the middle of all that I learned to build software, and it turned into the thing I do every day.

// 02 / The Work

Software for
my own places.

The businesses need software, so I build it. Point-of-sale scrapers, inventory and food-cost tools, review funnels, an AI phone agent that answers the bar line, labor dashboards that catch missed clock-outs. Close to a hundred projects now, most of them in daily use across my own places and a few family ones.

  • Labor analytics

Slow or
expensive?

If you run a bar, a restaurant, or a shop and you are paying too much for software that only half fits, there is a good chance I already built the thing you need for one of my own places. Tell me what is slow or expensive and I will tell you straight if I can help.
