The challenge
Printed and hand-edited menu boards go out of date the moment a price changes or an item sells out. Restaurants needed to update every screen from one panel, safely, without one business ever seeing another's data.

Digital Menu Board SaaS for Restaurants
Turn any TV into an always-accurate digital menu
A multi-business SaaS where restaurants build their menu (categories, products, prices, availability and branding), design boards, and publish versioned releases to TV screens they pair with a code.
- Laravel
- MySQL
- Tailwind CSS
- jQuery
What we built
We built a Laravel SaaS with a master panel for the platform owner and a private panel for each business. Owners manage categories and products (with Available, Sold out and Hidden states), design boards with themes and backgrounds, preview them, and publish immutable releases to paired screens, with the option to restore an earlier release.
Key features
What the product does.
- Master panel: businesses, owner logins, activation and login history
- Business panel: categories, products, prices and availability
- Board designs with themes, fonts, backgrounds and an image library
- Live preview, publish and restore of menu releases
- Screen pairing with one-time codes
- Sign-in activity and audit history for owners
Under the hood
Architecture and engineering highlights.
- 1 Strict tenant isolation with a global business scope; cross-tenant access returns 404
- 2 Draft locking with revision numbers to stop two editors overwriting each other
- 3 Soft deletes and restricted foreign keys: nothing is hard-deleted
- 4 Append-only login history and audit events with before/after values
- 5 Prices stored as integer cents to avoid rounding errors
