About Takeoutly

Takeoutly was started by Rodney Blackwell, a Sacramento solopreneur who has spent twenty years building communities around food, from founding the Sacramento Burger Battle to running the Plush Burger pop-up.

When Oracle announced it was shutting down GloriaFood and stranding more than a hundred thousand restaurants, Rodney was helping a beloved Sacramento brunch spot figure out what came next. The answer became Takeoutly: commission-free online ordering with a live kitchen board, direct payouts, and a promise that restaurants own their data and can leave anytime with everything.

Today Takeoutly is run by one person and the restaurants that use it, who vote on the roadmap. Tomorrow it will be run by worker-owners. The plan is written, the pay scale will be published, and Sacramento gets first crack at the jobs.

If that sounds like a company you want handling your orders, set up your restaurant and help us build it.
