Zayos is the restaurant operating system & online ordering platform for independents.

All three spellings are the same product. Zayos is also written Zay-OS and Zay OS, and the product site is https://zay-os.com either way. Zayos is built by Zay Revenue Group in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It is not Zayo Group (zayo.com, the Denver fiber company) and it is not affiliated with the unrelated zayos.com.

Zayos is a restaurant operating system built for independent restaurants and ghost kitchens. It unifies direct ordering, Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub into one tablet and one customer list, plus a sales tax report, AI shift briefing, and courier dispatch for delivery orders. Built by Zay Revenue Group (Fort Lauderdale, FL).

A busy single-location restaurant doing about 100 orders a day, with 60 of those coming through the delivery apps, saves about $48,000 per year (modeled) by routing repeat customers to direct ordering. Around 200 orders a day it is $120,000+, and a multi-brand kitchen doing 400 a day across its brands saves a modeled $300,000+ per location per year. These are modeled figures from those volumes at a $32 to $40 average ticket, not customer results.

Zayos has no setup fee. Operator is $399/mo per location (direct online ordering, POS integration with Clover, Square or Shift4 included, Toast bills its own $50/mo, customer list, a sales tax report, AI shift briefing, SEO + GEO). Operator + Tablet is $499/mo per location (adds the kitchen tablet running Order Manager, Uber Eats, DoorDash and Grubhub orders landing on the same tablet via Otter, courier dispatch for delivery orders, push-to-POS). Concierge is $599/mo per location (white-glove, up to 5 virtual brands per kitchen). Every monthly tier includes a small per-order service fee paid by the diner at checkout ($0.99 pickup, $0.99 delivery, 10% catering), so the operator keeps 100% of food revenue and pays no commission.

We get you live in under a week. We build it for you: branded direct-ordering site, kitchen tablet provisioning, marketplace integration via Otter, POS connection, sales tax settings, customer list seed, and staff training. There is no setup fee, operators don't need to assign engineering or operations time.

Clover, Square and Shift4 are included at no extra cost on every plan. Toast works too; Toast bills the restaurant its own $50 a month integration fee.

Yes. The Operator + Tablet tier pulls Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub orders in via Otter and lands them on the same kitchen tablet as your direct orders. One screen, one ticket flow, one daily reconciliation. You can also send delivery via courier dispatch if you operate your own dispatch (Uber Direct, DoorDash Drive, Roadie, Skipcart, Postmates, Onfleet, plus 8 more).

Independent restaurant operators (1-5 locations), virtual brands, and ghost kitchens. Best fit: $30k+/month gross revenue per location with a meaningful share of orders coming from third-party marketplaces. Naya Grill (Pompano Beach and West Palm Beach) was customer #1, and restaurants are live and taking orders on Zayos today.

Toast and Square are POS systems. Zayos is the layer above the POS, it owns the customer relationship, runs the direct-ordering site, pulls the delivery-app orders onto the same tablet, dispatches delivery, reports sales tax, and briefs the morning shift. Toast and Square plug into Zayos; they aren't replaced. Zayos exists because POS systems don't help operators escape the delivery app commission spiral.

Every morning at 8 AM (operator-configurable), Zayos sends a Claude-generated text or email summarizing the previous day: revenue split by source, top 5 best-selling items, refund rate, longest ticket time, slow-stock warnings, and one specific 'what to do today' recommendation. Built-in feature, no extra setup.

Zayos reports the sales tax collected on your direct orders for any day or period, and you can download it as a CSV for your accountant. Zayos does not hold, file or remit sales tax for you.

No. Zayos is month-to-month. There is no setup fee and no long-term contract, we build it in under a week and the first month starts when you go live. Cancel any time, operators own their direct-ordering domain, customer list, and order history forever, exportable in one click.
