QSR & Multi-Unit Restaurant Intelligence

The Operating Intelligence Platform Built for QSR and Multi-unit Restaurant Brands.

A single operating narrative across the restaurant business
The Retail Score connects POS, BOH (Back of House), inventory, transactions, marketing, and finance data into one restaurant intelligence model — so operations, finance, field leadership, and brand teams work from the same numbers, definitions, and daily realities.

Two problems define QSR performance.

Every QSR operator is solving two fundamentally different problems — and they require two different lenses.

Store inefficiency compounds. Portfolio complexity hides it.

THREAD 1
Store Execution
This is where margin is won or lost — inside the four walls of each restaurant.

Problem: teams know the numbers, but not what to fix today

THREAD 2
Franchise & Multi-Brand Visibility
As operators scale across brands, the problem shifts from execution to clarity across the portfolio.
Problem: Leadership cannot see where to focus across brands

How the platform works

The simplest way to understand tRS is as a connected operating layer for QSR: systems feed a restaurant model, and that model powers reporting, AI, and action.
Source systems
Restaurant systems generate the raw data
tRS pulls data from the systems different teams already use to run the business — including POS, BOH (Back of House systems covering labor, scheduling, and cost control), inventory, transactions, marketing, finance, and delivery platforms.
Restaurant model
The data is structured into one restaurant intelligence model
Stores, dayparts, products, promotions, labor, transactions, and financial outcomes are linked into one consistent operating view.
Reporting + AI
Reporting and AI work from the same model
Teams can build automated reporting from the connected operating model and use AI on top of the same definitions, calendars, and logic. That means no constant rebuilding, reconciling, or debating which number is right.
Execution
Teams can act faster at the store and network level
Operations, finance, and field teams can see the same issues earlier, prioritize action, and improve execution across every location.
Systems → Restaurant model → Reporting + AI → Execution

Two Distinct Capabilities — Built for Two Different Problems

The platform solves both store execution and portfolio visibility —
but these are fundamentally different use cases and should be understood separately.

AI for QSR & Multi-unit Restaurant Operations

Because AI runs on the same connected restaurant model as reporting, it analyzes the business the same way your teams do — across stores, labor, products, transactions, promotions, and financial outcomes.
Surface restaurant issues automatically
The platform continuously monitors the model and flags issues common in QSR operations — labor spikes, food variance, transactions throughput gaps, promotion underperformance, and store execution changes — without teams needing to build reports first.
Answer operational questions instantly
Instead of manually pulling POS, labor, and finance reports, teams can ask questions about stores, dayparts, menu items, promotions, and labor efficiency and receive simple explanations based on the connected operating data.
Solve multi-step operational problems
Because the model connects transactions, transactions, labor, promotions, and financials, AI can trace problems across the business.
Example: a promotion drives higher-than-expected lunch transactions in a region. The platform can identify which stores were understaffed, where throughput slipped, how labor % moved, and what the net sales impact was — without anyone manually stitching the analysis together.
