Table Nove
a supper club, nine seats, last Friday of the month · Bologna, Italy
You host nine people at one table every month, and you route all of it — the natural wine they reorder by the case, the cheese-maker two hours away, the seat at next month's table they fight over. The host has always captured none of it. Here the table is a ledger: every routing logged and paid to the host, on the monthly cadence the supper club already runs. Recurrence is the lock-in.
What the table already runs on. The rail logs it and pays the host — every month it gathers.

The natural wine the table reorders by the case
The cloudy Lambrusco nobody expects to love and everybody takes home. Not the supermarket fizz — the grower's, disgorged by hand. They order a case within the week.

The cheese-maker two hours north
The Parmigiano stravecchio aged past anyone's patience. He lets the table visit the cave; they leave with a wheel between them.

Table Nove+€6.48
The seat at next month's table
Nine seats, one night, and the list is long. The standing reservation is the thing people actually want — the routing that recurs by design.

Coltelleria Scarperia+€17.28
The host's knife, from the maker in the hills
The carbon-steel one that lives by your board. Forged in the old knife town; they'll put your initials on the tang while you wait.

The harvest weekend at the vineyard
Two nights in September: pick in the morning, long lunch under the pergola, press in the afternoon. The trip the table plans its autumn around.

The payout ledger
Gathering the ledger…
This is the rail Uber ran for drivers and Airbnb ran for hosts, pointed at the oldest demand channel there is: a person you trust telling you where to go. Table Nove already routes guest spend — Troviii is the only layer that logs it as an edge and pays the router for it, openly. Routed spend is an estimate, not a captured transaction; the edge shape (router → guest → venue → value × confidence) settles through the same attribution store Troviii uses.
