Goals develops the HANZO series, an AI-native cloud suite that targets waste reduction and cost optimization across restaurants, food distributors, and manufacturers. Its flagship modules include HANZO Automatic Ordering, which automates restaurant ordering; HANZO Labor Costs, which recommends optimal staffing levels; and HANZO Cost Analysis, which visualizes and trims food costs. By applying machine-learning algorithms to daily operational data, the platform aims to cut waste, improve labor allocation, and boost margins for food-service operators. The company positions itself as a comprehensive operating system for food businesses, replacing manual spreadsheets and fragmented tools. Headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, Goals is led by President and CEO Suguru Sazaki and is focused on scaling both its product and go-to-market capabilities. The newly raised capital will be directed toward expanding development resources, bolstering sales, enhancing existing services, and underwriting new customer implementations.
