The Intelligence Layer for Omnichannel Orders

Curbit provides a fully integrated solution that dynamically orchestrates digital order flow across takeout, delivery, and dine-in, ensuring maximum efficiency, profitability, and guest satisfaction.

Orchestrating Order Flow for Maximum Throughput, Minimal Stress, and Happy Handoffs®

The surge in digital ordering has introduced new challenges for restaurant operations:

  • Static and inaccurate quote times.
  • Overloaded kitchens with unpredictable surges.
  • Bottlenecks during peak hours.
  • Guests arriving too early or too late.
  • Food and beverages losing quality before it’s served.

Curbit solves these challenges with AI-powered, real-time orchestration that transforms how restaurants manage order flow and customer arrivals without requiring any hardware or manual throttling.

How Curbit Solves Kitchen Capacity Management

Curbit is the real-time intelligence layer that connects and enhances the systems restaurants already use — ordering platforms, POS systems, loyalty programs, delivery providers, labor tools, and more.

The result? Orders fall into the "Goldilocks Zone.

While other technologies focus on transactions, Curbit focuses on what’s actually happening inside the kitchen — right now. By capturing and analyzing that real-time signal, Curbit helps restaurants orchestrate better decisions across every touchpoint of the guest journey and every layer of operations.

Results

With rising off-premise orders, the lack of accurate, real-time communication between kitchen operations and guest regarding the progress of their order hurts revenue through reduced guest loyalty, less frequency, and lower online ratings.

Curbit’s real-time integration with Aloha kitchen, Olo, and it’s omni-channel communication channel with guests allowed it to coordinate workflow and order handoff at Smashburger. In short, Curbit provided the missing bridge between Smashburger kitchens and their digital guests.
