Solink has launched Drive-Thru AI, a system that monitors quick-service restaurant drive-thru performance using existing cameras rather than traditional in-ground sensors. The platform provides real-time visibility across the entire drive-thru lane, from entry through service windows. The system replaces loop timers with configurable camera-based detection zones, capturing metrics including wait times, queue abandonment and bottlenecks. Drive-Thru AI addresses a critical revenue area, as drive-thrus typically generate over 70% of annual revenue for QSR locations. The platform requires no new hardware installation and can be configured in minutes. According to one study, every five-second delay in drive-thru service can cost up to $9,500 annually per location. Sonny's BBQ is amongst early adopters of the technology.
