Penny Upsell Engine

Every phone order can earn a little more.

Penny doesn’t just take the order. She can naturally recommend the sides, drinks, desserts, upgrades, and add-ons you approve—helping grow ticket value while your team stays focused on the restaurant.

Helpful, not pushy

Upselling that feels like good service.

Penny listens to what the guest is ordering and uses the rules you approve to make a relevant suggestion at the right point in the conversation. The goal is simple: help the guest complete the meal while giving your restaurant another opportunity to increase revenue.

Relevant suggestions.

Pair burgers with fries, entrées with drinks, family meals with desserts, or any combinations your restaurant wants Penny to recommend.

You control the strategy.

You decide what Penny can suggest, when she should suggest it, and when she should simply finish the order without adding friction.

More revenue, automatically.

The recommendation happens while Penny is already handling the call—without adding another task for the host stand or front-of-house team.

Penny Impact Report

See what Penny contributed every month.

Reporting can show the measurable financial impact of Penny—not just that calls were answered. Track accepted upsells, revenue attributed to those add-ons, phone orders handled, and an estimate of the staff time Penny saved based on your configured operating assumptions.

That gives owners a simple monthly view of both sides of the equation: revenue Penny helped add and operational time Penny helped save.

Small add-ons can compound across the month.

Not every guest will say yes—and Penny should never force it. But when a relevant suggestion is accepted, that incremental revenue is visible and attributable, helping you understand which offers are actually working.

Built into the call

No extra screen. No extra employee step.

Penny can make the suggestion, capture the guest’s answer, update the order, confirm the new total, and—where your integration supports it—send the completed order into the restaurant workflow.

Penny takes the call.

The guest orders naturally over the phone, just like they would with a team member.
