Choosing restaurant POS software in India? Start with these checks.
A restaurant POS should make the rush easier, not add one more screen to feed. Before you buy, check how it takes orders, how it talks to the kitchen and how it bills.
The checks that matter
- Orders from three places: table QR, waiter phone and counter.
- KOT straight to a kitchen screen, with table number and timer.
- UPI, card and cash, with GST bills.
- Item on or off in one tap when something runs out.
- Swiggy and Zomato orders on the same kitchen screen.
- Runs on phones and tablets you already own.
Where CafeAIOS fits
CafeAIOS covers the POS basics, from ordering and KOT to UPI and GST billing, and adds an AI layer most POS systems do not have: an AI waiter at every table, automatic WhatsApp offers to regulars, and a daily owner briefing.
Swiggy and Zomato orders come in through UrbanPiper as an add-on on the Pro plan, so delivery and dine-in share one kitchen screen.
