Real Convenience. Better Experiences. Hardware-Free.

Distinguish between walk-in and drive-thru customers to serve them on their terms. Transform the experience even further by differentiating between multiple drive-thru lanes.

No hardware required to unlock quick rollouts for unlimited scale.

Understand ETA with Bluedot Tempo

Build more efficient kitchen operations for mobile orders.

With Tempo, QSRs can understand customers’ estimated time of arrival (ETA) via the app.

This allows more efficient use of your resources to fire off tickets at the right time – ensuring food freshness. Say goodbye to soggy fries, melted ice drinks, and luke-warm burgers.

Tempo understands that distance is heavily influenced by traffic patterns, topography, commute hours, and mode of transport. Tempo’s time-based arrival technology takes into account that coming from 2 miles east of the drive-thru may take twice as long as coming from 2 miles west at rush hour.

QSRs make better real-time decisions with Tempo, operating more efficiently at greater volumes, especially during lunch and dinner hours.

Achieve higher throughput, serve more cars.
