TabSense, a Saudi startup redefining restaurant technology, has raised $5 million in a funding round led by Jasoor Ventures. The company, founded in 2024 by Mohammed Jaber, is pioneering the first AI Agentic Point of Sale (PoS) system, designed to act as a digital employee for restaurants and cafes and help them scale efficiently.
The AI Teammate For Restaurants
Unlike traditional PoS systems that merely record transactions, TabSense’s platform utilizes autonomous AI agents to transform operations. These agents streamline workflows, optimize menus, automate complex management tasks, and deliver actionable insights in real time. The goal is to evolve the PoS from a simple tool into an intelligent growth engine. “We built TabSense to give restaurant operators more than just a PoS – we built an intelligent teammate,” said Mohammed Jaber, Co-founder of TabSense. “Our AI agents handle the complex, time-consuming aspects of management, allowing owners to focus on growth and quality.”
Scaling With Strategic Backing
The new capital will be used to accelerate product innovation, expand regional sales, and grow the company’s full-stack engineering and AI teams. TabSense already serves over 1,000 clients, including multi-branch and franchise restaurants across Saudi Arabia and Jordan. The startup has also forged strategic partnerships with major regional players like STC and Zain, alongside integrations with key financial institutions, positioning it for significant growth across MENA.
Investor Outlook
The funding round signals strong investor confidence in TabSense’s vision to disrupt the hospitality sector. “TabSense stands at the forefront of AI-powered transformation in hospitality, reshaping how the industry operates and engages with customers,” said Sara Ebeid, Investment Manager at Jasoor Ventures. “We are pleased to support the team to further develop their technology, expand into new markets, and unlock new use cases.”
