What is TabSquare AI

TabSquare AI is a restaurant technology platform that unifies in‑store dining, online ordering, customer retention, and data analytics in one AI‑driven suite. Through products such as SmartQR, SmartKiosk, and SmartTab, it delivers dynamic digital menus, seamless self‑service ordering, and data‑backed recommendations that elevate order accuracy and guest satisfaction. Operators use TabSquare to streamline front‑of‑house flows, personalize upsell suggestions, and monitor performance across channels to improve margins and repeat visits.

Industry Use Cases for TabSquare AI

In casual dining, QR code menus can remove queue congestion and speed table turns while promoting high‑margin add‑ons. Quick‑service formats use kiosks to handle peak traffic and standardize modifiers for accuracy. Cafes and bakeries streamline counter service with guided upsells on pastries and beverages. Multi‑brand food courts unify menus and reporting across outlets, while cloud kitchens centralize online ordering and optimize item performance based on data insights.
