| Fact | Solink Drive-Thru AI | Zairo |
|---|---|---|
| Headquarters | Ottawa, Ontario, Canada | Kansas City, Kansas, United States |
| Intended customers | The launch announcement describes Drive-Thru AI as an extension of Solink’s platform for quick-service restaurant operators, including multi-site operations. | Zairo is designed for multi-unit QSR and fast-casual franchise groups and independent operators, though single-location operators can use it. |
| Purpose | Solink Drive-Thru AI gives quick-service restaurants real-time performance monitoring across the drive-thru journey using existing cameras. | Zairo turns labor, sales, scheduling, food-cost, and operational data into actions for multi-unit QSR teams. |
| Security | Solink says cloud data is encrypted in transit and at rest, user accounts support MFA and SSO, and recording appliances operate behind customer-managed firewalls without required inbound ports. | Zairo states that traffic is encrypted with TLS, security-relevant actions are audit-logged, and encrypted database backups are stored off-site nightly. |
| Speed of service | It tracks lane times from order to handoff and helps identify which station or employee is slowing service. | Zairo scores drive-thru performance in 15-minute intervals, identifies the weakest hour, and can send SMS alerts when service misses its target by 10% or more. |
