The economics

Half the price of your POS. Plus an employee you can't hire.

Legacy self-checkout runs $300–400 a month for software alone — and you still pay a human to stand next to it. Cashier Crew is the full counter, and the AI only bills when it's actually serving.

Legacy self-checkout · Otter, Toast
$300–$400 / mo, flat

Software only. You still hire the human (~$3,500/mo fully loaded in California — and a 12-hour counter needs two) to run the counter. Same flat fee at 10 orders or 1,000.

Cashier Crew
$99–$198 / mo + AI

Full self-checkout POS — $99/mo if you buy the hardware, $198/mo if you lease it from us. Add the AI video employee at $0.25 per active minute — $0 idle, down to $0.15 with partner ads. It bills only while it's making you money.

Cashier Crew, total~$684/mo
A staffed counter today~$7,000/mo
You keep~$6,316/mo

$99/mo self-checkout + AI at $0.25 per active minute · ~1.5 min per order · open every day. Idle time is free. A full-time counter hire in California runs ~$3,500/mo fully loaded — a 12-hour counter needs two, so ~$7,000. Most owners keep their team and move them to the floor; the AI takes the typing, not the people.

How it works

Live in a week. Not seven months.

No forklift upgrade, no consultants, no retraining week. We install your first one; after that you add locations yourself from the app.

01

Reserve your terminal$200 · fully refundable

Put down a $200 refundable deposit to hold an install slot and lock the founding rate — $99/mo + $0.25 per active minute, for life. Refundable any time before install; credited to your first invoice after.

02

We install — day 7Buy the hardware or lease it

Our team delivers and mounts your first terminal — screen, camera, and payment reader in one unit — and your menu is loaded before we leave. Every location after that you can add yourself from the app: enter the menu, generate the food photos, pick your AI cashier, pair the kitchen screen. Under thirty minutes, no visit required.Two ways to take the hardware. Buy it — $1,500 at signing, all-in with setup and tax, and the terminal is yours for good. Or lease it — $200 setup at signing, then $99/mo for the equipment, and we replace and upgrade it at our cost as the hardware improves. Setup is $200 and the subscription is $99/mo either way.

03

It runs your counter$0.25 / active minute

A camera detects presence — the AI greets, takes the order with every modifier, upsells every single ticket (target +15–20%), answers in 30+ languages, prompts the tip, takes the payment, and fires the order to the kitchen. One tap hands any customer to your staff, mid-order, nothing lost.Tap-to-Pay, Apple Pay, chip · SMS, email, or printed receipts · live owner dashboard on your phone.

04

Idle time pays you backDown to $0.15 / min with ads

When no one's at the counter, the expensive AI powers down and the screen runs a pre-rendered 4K loop — today's special, your brand, or a partner's ad. Compute cost drops to $0. Allow partner ads and your AI rate falls from $0.25 to $0.15 a minute — the screen pays for itself.

Privacy by design. The camera detects presence only — no facial recognition, no biometrics, nothing stored. CCPA / CPRA-safe by default, and you own your merchant data outright.
Not just a friendly face

A full point of sale. Reinvented.

Cashier Crew doesn't bolt onto your register — it replaces the whole counter stack, end to end.

Payments, settled

Tap-to-Pay, chip, Apple Pay, Google Pay — reader built in, settled on the spot.

Tips, prompted

Asks for gratuity at the right moment — consistently lifts the tip average.

Every modifier, caught

"No onions, extra cheese, sauce on the side" — right, every time.

Kitchen display

Orders fire straight to the line — no paper tickets, no mis-reads.

Refunds & voids

Returns handled cleanly — manager-approved, fully logged.

Knows your regulars

Remembers the usual, applies loyalty — without storing a single face.

86's in real time

Sold out? It stops offering the item instantly.

Owner dashboard

Sales, peak hours, upsell conversion — live on your phone.

Plus drive-thru and curbside modes, age-check escalation, and receipts any way the customer wants them. Self-checkout is $99/mo for the founding cohort if you buy the hardware, $198/mo if you lease it; the AI video employee is the killer add-on at $0.25 per active minute. Your founding rate stays locked for life.

For investors · the thesis

Looks like a POS. It's a takeover.

3.6 million American cashiers do the same job: translate spoken words into electronic clicks. That translation layer costs operators ~$90K a year per station — and it sits on POS software that is a passive ledger. We automate the layer, at half the ledger's price. The Trojan horse is the discount.

Move 01 · Land

Undercut the ledger

A full self-checkout at half the incumbent's price, installed in a week, zero migration — Square today, Toast and Clover next. The CFO math is a no-brainer; the terminal gets in the door.

Move 02 · Expand

Every counter, a node

Each terminal is an edge-AI node, a media surface, and a payment rail — usage-billed AI labor, idle-time advertising inventory, and a 0.3–0.5% take on every transaction it routes once the payments layer is live.

Move 03 · Own

The operating layer

Aggregated identity, payments, and inventory across the network — the data flywheel under physical commerce. Toast built a multi-billion-dollar company on ~180,000 locations. The frontline-retail surface is an order of magnitude larger.

margin on the 2027 edge roadmap — same runtime, migrated mechanically

Seed. Closes October 31, 2026.

Working runtime in Los Angeles. NVIDIA Inception member, AWS Activate approved, unsolicited merchant inbound daily. $2–3M at a $20M cap, the last round priced here: a thousand counters, then we reprice. The Principal Memorandum in the data room is the master plan — every serious review starts there.

Roadmap: 1,000 counters inside the first year after close · licensed celebrity avatars in 2027 · self-generated brand avatars for every operator after. Internal goals, not promises — forward-looking statements involve risk.

Straight answers

The questions every operator asks.

What if the internet drops or it breaks?
Orders keep flowing — the terminal runs on a local cache and queues transactions until the connection is back. And your staff can step in at any second. You are never stuck at the counter.
What if a customer wants a real person?
One tap hands the order off to your staff mid-stream — nothing is lost. The AI handles the rush; your people handle the moments that need a human.
Does this mean I fire my team?
No. It takes the repetitive counter work so your people move to food quality, service, and the floor — where they make you more money and go home less burnt out.
Am I locked into a contract?
Cancel anytime. The $200 deposit is fully refundable before install, and there's a 90-day money-back guarantee after you go live. No term, no lock-in, no penalty.
Who owns the data?
You do. It's your merchant data — sales, customers, history. We never sell it, and you can export or delete it whenever you want.

"I built twenty of my own brands in the Caucasus and stood behind the register of my first store. Then I had to leave, and started over. I know what that counter costs the person standing at it, and what it costs the owner — because the owner was me. I built this so the next person at the counter keeps more of what they earn, and goes home less tired."
— Temur Valiev, founder
