My Top Tech IPO to Buy in October
Toast's business started in point-of-sale software, but it has since expanded into offering nearly every back-end service its 48,000 restaurant partners could need. Through its platform, Toast is hoping to reduce the complexity of effectively managing a restaurant. Toast wants to be the one-stop shop for these businesses, and the company has ramped up the number of services it offers -- now almost two dozen of them -- including everything from payroll to payment processing to marketing.
