Let your POS AI mark dishes out of stock across the online menu

who Eros Puentes, general manager of La Maracucha Restaurant & Creperie in Gainesville, Florida

What it does

The AI in their Toast POS adjusts online menu items in real time when an ingredient used across several dishes runs out, and answers his quick restaurant questions. Customers never talk to AI.

The problem

When an ingredient ran out, staff had to mark each affected dish out of stock by hand.

What happened

As reported by The Independent Florida Alligator: it saves staff from updating each dish by hand. He keeps AI out of customer-facing service because guests 'want to hear the real person'.
