Digital menu boards eliminate this entirely. Change a price from your phone, and it's live on every screen in every location within seconds. No designer, no printer, no waiting. Restaurants using digital menus often see higher average order values from better menu design and strategic upsell placement — menu items displayed with photos tend to sell significantly more than text-only listings.</p><h3>How Restaurants Use Daypart Scheduling for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner</h3><p>Breakfast ends at 10:30. Lunch starts at 11. Happy hour kicks in at 4 PM. Weekend brunch replaces the weekday breakfast menu. With printed boards, someone has to physically swap signs multiple times a day. With Kitcast, you set the schedule once and menus switch automatically — forever. Holiday hours, seasonal specials, limited-time offers — everything activates and expires on the dates you set. Your staff focuses on food and customers, not on changing signs.</p><h3>How Digital Menu Boards Help Promote Specials and Upsells</h3><p>Verbal upselling by cashiers has limited consistency and reach. The same suggestion on a screen at the order point — with a photo and a combo price — tends to convert at a much higher rate. Digital signage does the upselling automatically, consistently, and without making customers feel pressured. Kitcast lets you schedule different upsell content by daypart: coffee combos in the morning, dessert add-ons after lunch, happy hour upgrades in the evening.</p><h3>How Multi-Location Restaurants Manage Menus Centrally</h3><p>A single-location restaurant manages menus on a whiteboard. A 10-location chain can't. When corporate changes a price, all 10 locations need to reflect it instantly — but each location also needs to promote their own local specials. Kitcast solves this with groups and permissions: corporate pushes the master menu to all locations, each manager adds their own daily specials, and nobody can accidentally modify someone else's content. One platform, brand consistency, local flexibility.</p><h3>How Restaurants Use Screens for Social Proof and Brand Content</h3><p>Your customers are already posting photos of your food on Instagram and TikTok. Kitcast's social media widget pulls those posts onto your in-restaurant screens automatically — real customer photos, real reviews, real engagement. It's social proof that drives orders ("that looks amazing, I'll have what they're having") and encourages more customers to post. A self-reinforcing marketing cycle that costs nothing beyond the screen you already have.</p></div></div></div></div></section><section style="background:#f8f9fb;"><div class="page-padding"><div class="container-xlarge"><div class="padding-vertical padding-xxlarge"><div class="padding-bottom padding-large"><div class="text-align-center"><div class="max-width-large align-center"><div class="margin-bottom margin-small"><h2 class="heading-large">Built for IT: Security, MDM, and Governance Included</h2></div><p class="text-size-medium-8">For chains, franchises, and multi-location operators, Kitcast Pro includes SSO, API, audit log, and role-based access to manage screens across every location.</p></div></div></div><div class="w-layout-grid layout244_component"><div class="layout244_item"><div class="layout244_item-icon-wrapper"><img src="https://cdn.prod.website-files.com/65edee601e5bfcd07e93e2ad/674f177d9607067972a66355_security-lock.svg" alt="" class="icon-1x1-medium"></div><div class="layout244_item-text-wrapper"><div class="margin-bottom margin-xxsmall"><h3 class="text-size-medium text-weight-bold">SSO (SAML)</h3></div><p class="text-size-regular">Log in with your existing identity provider — Okta, Azure AD, or Google Workspace.
