Pdv Legal

What Pdv Legal does

Pdv Legal is the flagship commercial-automation product of Tablet Cloud, a privately held Brazilian software company founded in São Paulo in 2014 by Araquen Pagotto and Luis Garbelini. The company provides cloud-based, Android-native point-of-sale and business-management software aimed at small and medium-sized merchants across Brazil — including restaurants, food trucks, bars, nightclubs, events, small and medium retail, and service businesses requiring NFSe (electronic service invoice) issuance. Core modules include PDV (point of sale), a cloud-based Gestão (management) backend with real-time reporting and inventory control, a Serviços (services) module for order management and NFSe, and a monitoring dashboard; the platform is built on open APIs that integrate with payment processors (Stone, GetNet, Sitef, Asaas, Beepay), delivery platforms (iFood, Open Delivery, Delivery VIP), ERP suites (SAP, Omie, Micro ERP, VHSYS), and POS hardware vendors (Elgin, Gertec, TecToy, Urano). Extended products include PDV Legal Fast (barcode-driven quick checkout via Beepay) and Delivery Legal (delivery orchestration via Delivery VIP).

Pdv Legal makes money through recurring SaaS subscriptions sold almost entirely via indirect channels rather than a direct salesforce. Two partner models drive distribution: the Web Automação franchise network (nearly 100 resellers using the consolidated PDV Legal brand, with supplied marketing materials, qualified lead generation, and specialist advisory) and a white-label program (more than 20 partners reselling the solution under their own brand, targeted at companies with strong regional presence and existing commercial infrastructure). The company reports more than 5,000 active SMB customers running nearly 20,000 PDV terminals across Brazil, supported by roughly 120 channel partners. Both founders have track records of building and exiting prior commercial-automation businesses (Midbyte sold to TOTVS; Wyse Colibri sold to NRC), and the company operates privately with no disclosed institutional funding.
