What is Nova?

Nova is an AI-native operating system for restaurants. It combines POS, kitchen display, online ordering, mobile, loyalty, scheduling, inventory and analytics in one platform — replacing 7-10+ legacy vendors with intelligence built into every decision, from drive-thru voice ordering to predictive labor scheduling.

Powering restaurants from emerging brands to 680-location enterprise chains

BENEFIT 01

Stop managing 10 vendors.
Run your restaurant on one.

The typical multi-unit restaurant carries 7-10 separate contracts — Olo, Punchh, Cheetah, NCR Aloha, Dayforce, Sage Intacct, Power BI — with middleware holding it all together. Nova consolidates every one of them into a single AI-native platform with one data layer.

  • One platform replaces 7-10+ legacy vendors
  • One guest profile and one loyalty balance across app, web, kiosk, drive-thru and POS
  • One contract per location — not eleven
  • No middleware. No brittle APIs. No vendor coordination cycles.

BENEFIT 02

AI that lifts revenue.
AI that cuts waste.

Voice AI takes the drive-thru orders your team can't get to. Reporting AI surfaces what to feature on the menu next week. AI labor optimization right-sizes every shift. Real-time ops alerts catch voids and comps before they become losses. The kind of intelligence that's only possible when every channel runs on one data layer.

  • Voice AI recovers missed phone and drive-thru orders 24/7
  • Reporting AI surfaced an 18% sales lift & $25K incremental revenue at Bayou Bistro
  • AI labor optimization right-sizes every shift across every location
  • Real-time ops alerts flag voids, comps and prep regressions in seconds

BENEFIT 03

One guest. One profile.
Every touchpoint.

Mobile app, web ordering, kiosk, drive-thru, in-store — one identity, one loyalty balance, one history. Your regulars stop being strangers. Personalization actually personalizes. And AI-driven upsell calibrated to past behavior lifts average ticket without scripted prompts.

  • Single loyalty balance across every channel
  • AI-driven upsell calibrated to a guest's last 50 visits
  • Personalized campaigns generated and measured automatically
  • Consistent offers and pricing — digital to drive-thru

How it works

Three steps from first demo to going live.

Land with digital. Expand into front of house. Consolidate the rest of your back office on your timeline — not ours.

1

Connect

Nova plugs in alongside or in place of your existing stack. No multi-month implementation. No hardware replacement required to start. Land with digital — online ordering, mobile, loyalty, analytics.

2

Unify

Every channel — POS, online, kiosk, drive-thru, app — runs on the same data layer. One guest profile. One menu. One inventory. One financial ledger. Across every location and every brand.

3

Improve

AI runs continuously on live data. Reporting AI surfaces what changed. Voice AI handles missed orders. Models get smarter every week — because they're trained on your data, not someone else's.
