Receipts can now be printed in Romanian or English (with more languages coming Q3 2026). Perfect for venues serving international tourists, especially in Bucharest, Cluj, Brasov, and the seaside. Language is selected per customer or configured as venue default.

AI Demand Forecasting

The new AI forecasting engine analyzes your last 12 months of sales, weather patterns, local events, and holidays to predict ingredient needs for the next 7 days. Purchase suggestions are generated automatically, reducing both stockouts and overstock.

Beta result: Restaurants in beta testing reduced weekly food purchases by 11% while cutting stockouts by 73%.
