Theatro
Dallas-based software company pioneering the market’s first voice-controlled mobile app platform for hourly employees
About Theatro
Theatro provides a hardware-enabled Software as a Service (SaaS) solution aimed at frontline workers in sectors such as retail, hospitality, and manufacturing. The company's core offering is a voice-controlled wearable device that connects to a mobile app, enabling hands-free communication and access to enterprise resource planning systems.
This platform is designed to improve employee productivity and customer service by allowing staff to communicate with each other and access information without interrupting their workflow. The business model is based on a subscription service for the software, coupled with the sale of the proprietary wearable hardware. Theatro serves a client base of large retail and hospitality brands, including The Container Store, Walgreens, and Macy's. The company was acquired by Motorola Solutions, integrating Theatro's technology into a broader ecosystem of communication and safety products.
