Every drive-thru. Live on your phone.

One screen. Every branch.

Magnaite Connect pulls live data from the systems already running in your locations — cameras, POS, drive-thru timers — into a single dashboard. No new hardware to install, no new habits for your team to learn. Just visibility into what's actually happening, as it happens.

Built on the systems we install.

Connect isn't a separate product bolted onto someone else's hardware. It reads from the cameras, POS terminals, and network infrastructure Magnaite already deploys — which means it goes live faster, and it stays accurate because we control both ends of the connection.

What you see.

Live status per branch — know which locations are running normally and which need a look, without waiting for a call.

Service time tracking — see how long orders are taking, branch by branch, shift by shift.

Multi-branch comparison — spot the outlier location before it becomes a pattern.

Mobile access — the same view your on-site team sees, from wherever you are.

For the people running the floor.

Operations directors managing multiple locations. Franchise owners who can't be everywhere. Regional managers who need to know which store to call before headquarters does.

What branch monitoring means in practice

Most chains already own the data they need. Cameras record every lane and counter, the POS logs every order, and drive-thru timers measure each car. The problem is that this data sits in separate systems, at separate branches, and nobody sees it together until a weekly report arrives. Branch monitoring with Magnaite Connect brings those sources into one live view on your phone, so you see what is happening at each location while it is happening.

Because Connect reads from the cameras, POS and timers you already run, there is no new hardware to buy and no rollout across branches before you see value. We connect the existing systems, set up the dashboard, and your team starts using it.

Who uses it

• Operations directors who need one view of every branch before the lunch and dinner peaks.
• Franchise owners who want to see their own locations without waiting for head office reports.
• Regional managers who cover several branches and cannot be at all of them at once.

Each role sees the branches it is responsible for. A regional manager does not need the whole network, and an owner does not need to dig through screens built for an analyst.

What you can see from your phone

Drive-thru performance

Live lane timings from your drive-thru timers, shown per branch. When a lane slows down, you see it during the rush, not the next morning. Connect pairs the timing with the camera view of that lane, so you can check whether the queue is a staffing gap, an order problem or a slow pickup window.

Sales and orders

Order activity from the POS, by branch and by hour. Branch monitoring is far more useful when you can see a drop in orders next to the video of the same counter at the same moment.

Live video

Camera feeds from each location, available from the same app. You do not need to log in to a separate recorder at every branch.

Why one view matters for multi-branch operators

When a chain grows past a handful of sites, managers stop visiting every location every day. Problems that used to be spotted on the floor now show up later in sales reports. Branch monitoring closes that gap: instead of learning about a slow Friday at one location on Sunday, the regional manager sees it as it happens and can call the branch.

It also makes branches comparable. When every location reports the same timings and order data in the same view, you can see which branches run well at peak and learn from them, and which need support.

How we set it up

1. We review which cameras, POS platform and drive-thru timers each branch runs today.

2. We connect those sources to Magnaite Connect and confirm the data is reaching the dashboard correctly.

3. We configure access by role, so each user sees the branches they manage.

4. We walk your team through the app and stay available through our support team after go-live.

If some branches run different systems, we tell you at the review stage what can be connected as it is and what would need attention first.

Branch monitoring during the peaks that matter

The hours that decide a restaurant's day are short: the lunch rush, the evening peak and the weekend. Those are also the hours when managers are busiest and least able to check reports. Branch monitoring on your phone fits those moments. A quick look shows which locations are keeping pace and which lanes are backing up, without stepping away to a desktop.

Because lane timings, orders and video sit together, a manager can move from "this branch is slow" to "this is why" in a few taps, then call the shift lead with something specific to fix.

Branch monitoring and the systems behind it

Connect is only as reliable as the systems feeding it. That is why branch monitoring sits naturally next to the rest of our work: we install and maintain the CCTV, networks, POS infrastructure and drive-thru technology that the dashboard reads from. If a camera goes offline or a timer stops reporting, our maintenance team can treat it as part of the same support relationship instead of a separate vendor problem.

For chains that already work with us on CCTV or drive-thru, adding branch monitoring is a short step. For chains that work with other installers, we start with the compatibility review and tell you plainly what Connect can read today.

Getting started

Tell us how many branches you run, which POS platform you use and which drive-thru timers are installed. We will come back with what can be connected and how branch monitoring would look for your operation.

Questions to ask before you start

Before connecting any system, it helps to agree internally on a few points. Which managers need access, and to which locations? Which numbers matter most to your operations team: lane times, order volumes, or both? How should a slow lane be escalated during a shift? Settling these early means the dashboard reflects how your chain already runs, rather than adding another screen nobody checks.
