Overview

Screenza combines menu creation with publishing and management for restaurant displays. It can generate menu boards, food imagery, promotional banners, and short looping videos, or extract menu details from a photo or PDF. That can help move an existing menu onto screens, but AI-generated and parsed content may contain errors; customers need to review it, and Screenza does not guarantee generated content is unique or non-infringing.

Displays can run from a browser URL or a dedicated Android or Windows player app. The player caches menus and promotional images for continued display during an internet outage, then syncs updates when connectivity returns. Support can help with player installation and display-device troubleshooting.

Key features

Scheduling and content

Automatic daypart changes, custom weekdays, and overnight windows suit restaurants whose menus or promotions vary by service. Playlists rotate boards and promotions, while templates can add weather, alerts, QR codes, countdowns, and interactive menu search. This is a practical set of options for keeping screens useful beyond static menus, though image credits, video credits, parses, and storage are capped by plan.

Multi-location management

A single dashboard manages screens, menus, and schedules across restaurant locations. That central control is useful for operators coordinating updates, while the per-screen billing structure means costs rise with the display count.

Pricing

The free tier costs 0.00 USD per free and allows one screen, 5 image credits per month, 10 menu parses per month, and 100 MB of storage. It includes a Powered by Screenza watermark, so it is better for a trial or a single low-volume display than polished customer-facing signage.

Starter costs 16.00 USD per month, billed at $16 /screen/mo. It provides 20 image credits, 2 video credits, and 40 menu parses per screen per month, 1.0 GB of storage per screen, video uploads, and no watermark. It suits a modest screen setup, but the per-screen terms matter as displays multiply.

Growth costs 28.00 USD per month, billed at $28 /screen/mo. It raises the monthly per-screen allowance to 45 image credits, 5 video credits, and 100 menu parses, with 5.0 GB of storage per screen. Choose it when Starter's quotas or storage are too tight; otherwise, those larger limits may not justify the higher per-screen price.

Multi-location costs 42.00 USD per month, billed at $42 /screen/mo. It includes 80 image credits, 10 video credits, and 200 menu parses per screen per month, plus 15 GB of storage per screen. This is the most capable listed tier for content-heavy multi-site operators, but it still scales by screen rather than offering a flat location-wide price.

Unused monthly credits expire at the end of each billing cycle without rollover. The free plan's watermark and tighter quotas are its main trade-offs; paid plans remove the watermark and add video uploads. No named restaurant POS integration is specified, so restaurants needing a particular POS connection should verify that requirement before choosing Screenza.

Platforms

Screenza supports Android, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows. Screens can run through a browser URL or dedicated Android and Windows player apps, with offline caching for menus and promotional images.

Who it's for

Screenza fits restaurants that want scheduled digital menus, rotating promotions, QR codes, and centralized control across screens or locations. It is less suited to operators who need a named POS integration, broad uncapped content production, or a fixed multi-location fee. Account credential security and authorized-user access controls remain the customer's responsibility; the terms do not establish a security certification.

Pros and cons

Pros: Photo and PDF menu parsing can reduce manual re-entry, while daypart schedules, playlists, and widgets support changing service content.
Pros: Local caching keeps menus and promotional images on screen through internet interruptions.
Pros: The dashboard manages screens, menus, and schedules across multiple locations.
Cons: Per-screen pricing and per-screen quotas can make larger deployments costly and require careful plan selection.
Cons: Monthly credits expire without rollover, and AI-generated or parsed content requires review for accuracy and rights concerns.
Cons: The free tier is limited to one screen and carries a watermark.

Alternatives

Digital Menu Software is a useful category starting point for comparing options. Consider GustoQR if its free plan's 500-customer annual allowance, team access, and full templates and AI features better match your needs. EatPe is worth comparing when POS billing or thermal-print-ready invoicing matters. Choose MenüQR if its free allowance of one restaurant, one menu, 50 items, and one language is a closer fit. square.menu offers a free option capped at one menu, 25 products, and three categories with QR sharing. Tabemi may suit an outlet eligible for its no-subscription Founding Partner offer. AviQR provides a free starter allowance of 20 menu items, 50 orders a day, one QR code, and basic analytics. Digmenu is another freemium option, with a 19.99 EUR monthly plan. Dmeals has a free starter tier for one restaurant and up to 30 dishes, with a QR code menu.

Verdict

Choose Screenza if your restaurant needs scheduled, multimedia signage managed across screens or locations, especially when offline playback is useful. Its main advantage is the combination of menu creation, scheduling, and centralized display control; look elsewhere if you need a named POS integration, predictable flat pricing across many screens, or AI quotas that do not expire monthly.
