Restaurants and quick service

Menu boards that keep up with your kitchen

Wyndlass agents update menus across every location, switch dayparts on time, pull sold-out items as stock runs out and roll out new offers, with approvals for prices and rollback for every change.

The challenge

Your menu changes faster than your boards

Prices vary by location, items sell out and offers change every week. Updating every board by hand leaves room for costly mistakes.

  • Many locations, one brand

    Every location needs the same brand standards, with its own prices and local items.

  • Dayparts and sell-outs

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner menus switch on a timetable, and sold-out items should disappear right away.

  • Prices must be right

    A wrong price on a menu board means refunds, complaints and, in some places, compliance risk.

  • Franchisees want some control

    Owners want to run local offers without touching the core menu or the brand.

Menu operations

Launch a menu change everywhere, in one request

Tell an agent what is changing. It updates the right boards in every location, applies regional prices and sends the change for approval.

  • Update items, prices and photos on every board that shows them.
  • Run regional and per-location prices without maintaining separate menus.
  • Scheduled agent jobs switch breakfast, lunch and dinner menus on time, in every time zone.

Price changes can require approval from a regional or brand manager before they go live.

    That changes 186 menu boards in 54 locations across 3 price regions. Prices are changing, so it needs brand manager approval. I’ve sent the request and scheduled it for each location’s opening on Monday.

Content and scheduling

Menus that react to the kitchen and the weather

Combine conditions from your inventory data, the time of day and the weather, so boards only promote what you can serve.

  • Mark items as sold out, or hide them, as soon as stock runs out, straight from your data.
  • Promote hot drinks when it is cold and iced ones when it is hot.
  • Agents build recurring content, like weekly specials and local events, and schedule it for the right days.

Every automated change is audited and can be rolled back in one step.

Illustrative rule: promote what sells, and only what you can serve.

Franchise and brand control

Local freedom, with brand standards intact

Give franchisees and managers the access they need for local offers, while the core menu and the brand stay protected.

  • Multi-level organizations for the brand, its regions, franchisees and locations.
  • Fine-grained permissions decide who can change local offers, prices or the core menu.
  • A full audit trail shows every change, by people and by agents.

Changes outside a franchisee’s permissions are blocked, and brand-level changes can require approval.

Across the restaurant

Every screen in the restaurant

One platform for every screen, each with its own content, rules and people.

  • Menu boards

    Prices, photos and dayparts kept in step across every location.

  • Drive-thru

    Outdoor boards and pre-sell screens that change with the time of day and the weather.

  • Windows and entrances

    Offers that draw guests in, by time of day and weather.

  • Dining and waiting areas

    Specials, loyalty sign-ups and local news while guests wait.

  • Kitchen and back of house

    Staff updates, shift schedules and food safety notices, kept current by agents.

Restaurants: common questions

Can each location have its own prices?

Yes. Set prices by region or location and let conditions decide what each board shows, without separate menus to maintain. Price changes can require approval.

Can menus switch between breakfast, lunch and dinner automatically?

Yes. Scheduled agent jobs and conditions switch dayparts on time in every location and time zone.

Can sold-out items come off the board automatically?

Yes, when your inventory data is in Wyndlass. Data tables can sync from third-party data providers, and conditions hide or mark items as soon as stock runs out.

Can franchisees run their own local offers?

Yes, within the limits you set. Fine-grained permissions let franchisees manage local content without changing the core menu or the brand.

What if a wrong price goes live?

Every change is recorded, so you can see exactly what happened, who or what did it, and roll it back in one step.
