Toast launched Toast Drive-Thru, a unified digital platform for quick-service restaurants. The system integrates point-of-sale software, digital menu boards, and audio systems into a single interface. This offering replaces the traditional industry practice of managing multiple hardware and software vendors.
The company is targeting a domestic market of more than 140,000 drive-thru locations. The platform incorporates hardware from Delphi by Toast and currently utilizes artificial intelligence for voice ordering. Toast expects to introduce additional AI partner integrations in 2026.
The system uses guest-facing confirmation screens to verify order accuracy and improve labor efficiency. The initial rollout targets restaurant brands with 15 or more locations.
