Deliver New Speed and Efficiency to Quick-Service Restaurants

Stay Ahead of Customers’ Orders with AI

AI technology is helping quick-service restaurants (QSRs) address labor shortage and become more agile and efficient. With computer vision and speech recognition, restaurant operators can automate food ordering through AI-enabled kiosks, predict when orders will be ready, optimize staffing, and deliver meals to homes faster—creating more satisfied, brand-loyal customers.

Every single fast-food restaurant and retail store should have automated avatar agents that represent each brand to provide excellent customer service.
