For bars and restaurants

Your specials board, on the TV.

Weekly specials, events, ads you sell to local businesses, and your drinks list. Change any of it from your phone and the wall and the QR menu update in seconds.

That link is a working bar, not a mock-up — it is what their customers scan.

More than a beer list

It is the biggest thing on your wall. Anything you would otherwise print, chalk up or keep saying out loud can go on it, and it keeps its own diary.

This week's specials

Lunch at eleven, happy hour at four, the late menu after nine: one screen doing three jobs a day. When the specials change, it is one edit from your phone, not a rag and a piece of chalk.

Events that schedule themselves

Trivia Tuesdays, line dancing, live music, a holiday closing. Set the days and hours once and the board puts them up and takes them down without anyone remembering to.

Ads you sell to your neighbours

The garage, the barber, the venue down the road. Mark the promo as a sponsor, set the date they paid through, and it comes off by itself. Afterwards you can show them how many times it ran. We take nothing from it.

Brewery and tap takeovers

A brewery night or a new can worth pushing. Give them the full screen for the weekend, and the board is back to normal on Monday without anyone touching it.

The things you keep repeating

Kitchen closes at nine. Cash only at the bar. The wifi password, the charity night, the game on Sunday. Whatever is currently on a whiteboard by the door.

Rep tastings and brand nights

A distributor puts money behind a night — a rep comes in, pours samples, runs cocktails, and the bar takes the spend. Put the tasting on the board for exactly those hours, and afterwards show the rep how many times it ran. That number is the part they have to take back to the distributor.

One change. Both screens.

No publish step, no confirmation, nothing to remember at close.

1

Something changes

A keg blows. The new week's specials are in. The band cancels on Saturday.

2

You change it on your phone

One tap marks a beer sold out, and one tap puts it back. A special is a few words and a price. Built to be done one-handed, mid-shift.

3

Everyone sees it

The wall and every phone already scanning your code, in about two seconds. Nobody orders from a list that is out of date.

Your beer list is never wrong again

The board pages through your taps between the promos, and the QR menu carries the same list, because it is the same list.

  • ✓Sold out is one tap — greyed on the wall and on every phone, and one tap puts it back.
  • ✓A new keg in seconds. Pick the beer, check the price, save.
  • ✓Cocktails, wine and cans too, on the board, the phone menu, or both.

It keeps working when the wifi does not

The screen holds the last board it had rather than showing an error. A bar's TV going blank in front of customers is the one thing this is built never to do.

Who it is for

Anywhere the specials, the events or the drinks change faster than the sign does. A kitchen with a Friday fish fry and a new lunch special each Monday. A neighbourhood bar with twelve handles and a whiteboard by the door. A taproom turning over half its list every week. A restaurant whose draft list is buried on page four. A venue that needs the board saying something different on a show night.

It is early, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise. The live menu linked at the top of this page is a real bar's, running on Tapline now, not a mockup.
