Established in 2003, Solutions Details specialises in accounting software, enter- prise resource planning (ERP), inventory management (IM), warehouse manage- ment (WMS), point of sale (POS) and customer relationship management (CRM) for single and chain store retailers. For the front-end retail store, the company provides POS, CRM, e-menu, e-catalogue, kitchen display system (KDS), self-service payment kiosk and mobile or- dering systems. Today, Solutions Details is committed to helping its customers eliminate invest- ment in hardware through the migration to the cloud, and more importantly, the integration of AI. For instance, the Flexi AI_ChattyBoT allows eateries to eliminate the costs of installing e-menu devices, and the network infrastructure required to power them, says Chew. Instead, customers need only to key in a QR code and begin to start ordering on their individual devices. Payment is supported by multiple digital payment modes such as Apple Pay, and can also be conducted via cryptocurrency. “An AI bot will also advise on how many minutes the customer can be expected to wait for their food and it can also build cus- tomer loyalty by making recommendations on future visits, based on previous orders,” Chew says. Solutions Details’ new POS system is now completely hardware-independent, and can support iOS, Android or Windows, and the company is the only one in the in- dustry doing so, alongside its AI initiative, he reiterates.
