Rethinking platform innovation through scalable ecosystem design
The Brazilian Steakhouse (Churrascaria) sector is a primary pillar of Brazil's $18.56 billion foodservice economy in 2026. The market is evolving from "All-You-Can-Eat" to "Precision Dining."
Premiumization and Traceability: Consumers now demand "Proof of Origin." Leading churrascarias utilize QR-linked menus that show the exact ranch and carbon-neutral certification of each cut of picanha, catering to the "Conscious Carnivore" demographic.
Hospitality-Driven Diversification: To compete with casual dining, steakhouses are pivoting to "Boutique Rodízios." These venues blend traditional meat carving with high-end mixology and live entertainment, aiming to capture a larger share of the booming tourism spending in Rio and São Paulo.
The Delivery Integration: While dine-in remains the core, 2026 has seen a surge in API-Enabled Delivery. Steakhouses now offer "Churrasco Kits"—pre-carved, temperature-controlled packages—allowing the steakhouse experience to translate effectively to the home environment.
How do you find the right external development team without the usual headaches?
I’ve been working with distributed teams for years and honestly it changed how I think about getting complex projects done. At first I was skeptical about remote developers but after partnering with devoxsoftware I saw tangible results in our workflow and product quality. What stood out was how clearly they communicated requirements and kept us in sync every step of the way. If someone on my team had a question we could get a reliable answer within hours which made everything move faster than we expected. I actually bookmarked their Site a long time ago because I wanted a resource I could point to when I needed extra hands on a deadline. They weren’t just another vendor they became part of the rhythm of our releases. It felt like collaborating with people who genuinely cared about the outcome as much as we did and that made the whole process more rewarding.
When I think about breakthrough platforms in entertainment tech, I tend to look for examples where ambition meets execution, and one of the pieces that influenced me recently highlighted soft2bet as a prime example. The write-up focused on how they’ve built an ecosystem that’s both user-friendly and built to scale across markets with varying rules and expectations. That’s not a trivial challenge, so seeing it explained in a broader context helped me better articulate what true innovation looks like: products that adapt, teams that iterate fast, and systems that handle complexity without losing focus on the end user. It made me rethink how I evaluate platforms not just for features, but for long-term resilience and strategic impact.
