What Fresko is

Your marketing team, strategist, copywriter, food stylist and scheduler, in one tool.

Fresko isn't a post generator. Give it your restaurant's website and it builds the whole campaign: the strategy, the post mix, the captions, the visuals and the publishing schedule, shaped by content that already earned real attention from diners.

The problem

You run a kitchen. Not a content studio.

Social media decides who walks in, but service doesn't leave time to feed an algorithm.

74%

Diners choose from social

74% of diners who follow restaurants on social media say they're more likely to visit (MGH survey). An empty feed reads like an empty dining room.

MGH consumer survey
45%

First visits start with a post

Nearly half of diners have tried a restaurant for the first time because of a social media post, usually a photo of the food.

MGH consumer survey
41%

Diners decide on social

41% of diners use social media to choose where to eat, and 67% of Gen Z (TouchBistro, 2025). If you are not in the feed, you are not on the shortlist.

TouchBistro Diner Trends Report, 2025
50%

Reviews decide trust

Half of consumers trust online reviews as much as a friend's recommendation (BrightLocal, 2024), so your best ones belong in the feed.

BrightLocal Local Consumer Review Survey, 2024
The transformation

From "we should post more" to booked-out weekends.

Sundays, before Fresko
Owner alone at a laptop after closing

Marketing happens after close, when you have nothing left.

  • Scrolling for post ideas between services
  • Dark, rushed phone photos that undersell the food
  • Posting whenever there's a spare minute, not when diners decide
  • Specials announced too late to fill the room
  • The same three dish photos, posted on repeat
Sundays, with Fresko
Packed dining room on a Friday night

The campaign runs itself. You run the restaurant.

  • A month of posts, reels and stories built in 2 minutes
  • Your phone photos transformed into styled, craveable visuals
  • Published automatically when diners plan where to eat
  • Specials promoted days ahead, on every platform
  • Captions and hashtags written in your voice
Dish photo transformation

Your phone shot. A food stylist's finish.

No photographer, no studio day. Fresko takes the food photos already on your website and turns them into styled, on-brand visuals, consistent lighting, composition and colors across your whole feed.

Works for dishes, drinks, interiors and staff shots.

What you actually get

Not posts. A campaign.

A real campaign works in layers, posts that educate, entertain, engage and sell, mixed across reels, carousels, stories and singles. Here's what one month looks like for a neighborhood trattoria, built from its website.

Under the hood

You approve. Fresko does the rest.

The post mix

A month of content, planned like a menu.

Fresko proposes the mix, dish heroes, kitchen stories, proof posts, booking pushes, weighted for what fills tables. You review, change what you want in the editor, and approve.

Fresko content mix builder
Auto-publish

Posted while you're behind the pass.

Today's posts go out on schedule, lunch pushes before noon, weekend specials by Thursday, across Instagram, TikTok and Facebook.

Fresko dashboard with today's scheduled posts
Quality control

Checked before it ships.

Every post gets brand, fact and image checks before it reaches your approval queue, so nothing off-brand goes out.

FAQ

Restaurant questions? Good ones.

I can barely keep up with service. How much time does this actually need?

About two minutes to start a campaign, and a few minutes a week to approve what goes out. Fresko does the strategy, writing, visuals, scheduling and publishing. Reviewing the week's posts fits into one coffee.

My photos are just phone shots from the kitchen. Good enough?

Yes, that's the point of dish photo transformation. Fresko takes the food photos from your website and restyles them into lit, composed, on-brand visuals. Your feed gets the food-stylist look without the photographer's invoice.

Can it handle daily specials and seasonal menus?

Yes. Fresko reads your menu from your website and builds the announcement posts, the countdown stories and the booking push, timed so the room is full when the menu drops, not the week after. Change any date or dish in the editor before it goes out.

Does it actually post for me, or do I still have to publish everything?

It publishes for you. Connect Instagram, TikTok and Facebook once, approve the campaign, and posts go out automatically, scheduled around when diners plan their meals: lunch decisions before noon, weekend plans by Thursday.

Can it use my reviews?

Yes. Fresko finds the proof on your website, reviews, awards, regulars, and turns it into posts that answer “is it actually good?”

We're one location with a small budget. Do ads make sense for us?

Yes. Fresko makes ad creatives alongside your posts, built for one location and a local crowd, ready to run as ads.
