Meet SipSense™

Where hospitality meets personalization.

The Question That Started It All

Long before SipSense existed, there was Dasta.

As Sandeep worked to bring his vision for Dasta to life, he was focused on creating something different—a café built around authentic chai, hospitality, community, and discovery.

But like many parents, his mother challenged him to think carefully about the risks of the restaurant business. She often encouraged him to explore different ideas, ask difficult questions, and think beyond traditional approaches.

One day, while discussing Dasta over coffee, the conversation turned to artificial intelligence and how rapidly it was changing the world.

Then came a simple question:
‍"Why not use AI to create a better café experience?"
‍
‍What began as a casual conversation quickly became an idea.
And that idea became SipSense.

More Than a Recommendation Engine

Most cafés offer menus.
SipSense offers guidance.

Rather than asking customers to sort through dozens of drinks, SipSense starts with something much more personal:
‍
‍How are you feeling today?

‍Whether you're looking for energy, comfort, focus, refreshment, or simply something new, SipSense takes your mood, cravings, and preferences and transforms them into a recommendation designed specifically for you.

No two customers are exactly alike.
Your recommendation shouldn't be either.

How SipSense Works

Step 1: Tell Us About Your Moment

Are you studying for an exam?
Meeting a friend?
Taking a break between classes?
Looking for something comforting on a cold day?
Looking for something refreshing on a hot day?

Simply tell SipSense how you're feeling or what you're craving.

Step 2: Let SipSense Think

SipSense carefully considers your preferences, flavor interests, and desired experience.

Step 3: Discover Something New
‍
In just seconds, SipSense creates a personalized drink recommendation and food pairing designed specifically for you.

Every recommendation is crafted with one goal:

‍Helping you discover your perfect sip.

Every Sip Has a Story

At Dasta, we believe great food and beverages are about more than ingredients.

They're about traditions.
They're about culture.
They're about stories.
They're about people.

Inspired by Dasta's philosophy of bringing the world to our customers, SipSense was built to help create moments of discovery.

Today, that means personalized recommendations.

Tomorrow, it means helping customers explore flavors, traditions, ingredients, and stories from around the world.

Because every sip has a story waiting to be discovered.

A World From Your Chair

One of the ideas that inspired Dasta was simple:

What if a single café could help people experience flavors, traditions, and stories from around the world?

What if a student taking a break from studying could discover a flavor inspired by another culture?

What if a simple cup of chai or coffee could spark curiosity, conversation, or connection?

SipSense helps make that vision possible.

Not by replacing hospitality. But by enhancing it.

One recommendation at a time.

Built Around People

The purpose of SipSense has never been technology for technology's sake.

The purpose is creating a better customer experience.

Helping someone discover a new favorite drink.

Helping a student find the right study companion.

Helping a customer feel understood.

Helping make every visit a little more personal.

Because great hospitality has always been about people.

SipSense simply gives us a new way to serve them.

Looking Ahead

SipSense is only beginning its journey.

Future innovations will continue to make recommendations more personal, more meaningful, and more connected to the stories, moments, and discoveries that make every visit unique.

As Dasta grows, SipSense will grow alongside it—continuing to blend hospitality, discovery, and innovation in ways that help create experiences worth remembering.
