Esys Colibri

What Esys Colibri does

Colibri (legal entity Esys Colibri) is a Brazilian food service technology company operating as a subsidiary of the RS Solutions diversified technology group. Founded in 1990, Colibri provides a comprehensive ecosystem of point-of-sale (POS) and restaurant management software serving thousands of restaurants, snack bars, pizzerias, franchises, and fine-dining establishments across Brazil, including 3 of 5 Michelin 2-star restaurants in the country. The platform supports SMBs (lanchonetes, bars, cafeterias), mid-market franchise and multi-store operators, and enterprise accounts through a hybrid direct and reseller-led go-to-market.

The core product platform comprises two POS anchors—Colibri Fácil (cloud-based, lightweight) and Colibri POS (Windows-based, for larger operations)—connected to a modular ecosystem of add-on solutions: Colibri Ped+ (mobile ordering), Colibri Totem (self-service kiosk), Colibri Tablet (table-side ordering with call panel), Colibri Menu (digital menu and proprietary commission-free delivery), Colibri Self Checkout, Colibri KDS (Kitchen Display System), Colibri Painel de Senha (queue/notification panel), Colibri Gestão (BI dashboard), and Colibri Hub, a delivery aggregator integrating iFood, Rappi, Uber Eats, 99, Keeta, Uai Rango, Neemo, Anota Aí, and other platforms. The technology runs on Android and Windows, supports 100% offline operation with automatic synchronization, and processes approximately R$28 billion in payments annually across the ecosystem.

Colibri monetizes through recurring software subscriptions priced via quote-based monthly billing, with customers able to start with a single POS module and expand into the broader ecosystem. Distribution is executed through a nationwide network of more than 600 resellers (commission-based), supplemented by self-serve online signup via welcome.colibri.com.br, and supported by active participation in major Brazilian food service trade events (ABF Franchising Expo, ANR, Fispal). The company is privately held with no disclosed external funding and operates exclusively in Brazil.
