Custom-built, analytics-driven menus that adapt, self-optimize, and scale across every store.
New York, NY (RestaurantNews.com) Checkmate, the leading provider of enterprise restaurant ordering solutions, today announced the launch of its AI-powered Digital Menu Boards (DMBs), designed to help quick service and fast casual brands transform every screen into a revenue-driving asset.
The solution enables restaurants to instantly update content, test promotions, trigger upsells based on guest orders, and sync with point-of-sale (POS) systems, all while tracking exactly what drives results. Unlike static boards or rigid vendor timelines, Checkmate’s DMBs can be deployed fast and continuously optimized to fit each brand’s unique operations.
“Digital menu boards have always been treated as static screens. At Checkmate, we see them as an e-commerce engine, a platform that continually experiments and optimizes to drive sales,” said Vishal Agarwal, Founder & CEO of Checkmate. “With AI, we can generate thousands of variations of banners and menu layouts within brand guidelines, then automatically test and self-optimize. This isn’t just a display; it’s a revenue channel built to adapt to every restaurant’s operations.”
“With DMBs, operators finally get real-time menu control, the ability to launch updates in days instead of weeks, and the flexibility to scale across hundreds of locations,” added Brett Spiegel, VP of Direct Ordering at Checkmate. “We built this system from the ground up with AI/ML experts and data scientists, so every feature is backed by real experimentation and analytics. That makes it simple for operators to manage day-to-day while knowing the platform is continually learning and improving in the background.”
EveryWare is the backbone of Checkmate’s platform, powering the Digital Menu Boards with the same centralized system that drives all of its ordering solutions. By connecting directly to the POS, EveryWare enables seamless multi-channel and multi-location rollouts at scale. Operators can manage menus, pricing, and promotions from one place and see updates reflected across drive-thru, digital menu boards, third-party platforms, web, app, and kiosks instantly.

- AI-generated banner variations that self-optimize for conversions
