Featured announcement

The Founding 100 is open.

Puana opened public reservations for its Founding 100 — a permanently limited cohort of cafés, restaurants, retailers and other operators who lock in a 25%-off-forever rate in exchange for early adoption. Once all 100 spots close, the discount ends. Reservations cost $9 and credit toward month one.

Founder bio

Jesse Meria — Founder

Jesse Meria is the founder of Puana and the operator of Cafe Meria, a seasonal coffee bar. Puana was built inside Cafe Meria — every scheduling rule, every signal that shapes the mood matcher, every minute of catalog testing happened behind the bar during a real working shift.

Before Puana, Jesse spent years building software products independently. He believes the best operator-tools are built by operators — and that small-business pricing should reward small operators, not punish them.

Pre-cleared quotes

These quotes from Jesse Meria are pre-approved for use in articles, newsletters, and podcast intros — no further outreach required. Please attribute as "Jesse Meria, Founder of Puana."

We built Puana for the eight-seat coffee bar, the single-room yoga studio, and the family-run salon — at a price that finally makes sense for them.
Our continuous discount formula deliberately rewards small operators — every additional location compounds savings, instead of locking the best rate behind enterprise minimums.
The cafe has been my classroom. Every system in this product was tested against real customers, on real espresso-bar hours, in a real seasonal small-business economy. If it works behind the bar at Cafe Meria, it ships.
The Founding 100 is a permanent line in our pricing history. Once these hundred operators lock in their rate, the discount closes — and they keep that rate forever as long as their account stays active. We don't manufacture scarcity. We commit to it.
