Checkout was never the hard part.
Take away the till and the queue just re-forms at the empty shelf. At half-time the bottleneck is replenishment, not payment. QueueZero pairs computer-vision grab-and-go with a live restocking engine, so the shelf keeps pace with the rush.
Everyone automated the wrong half.
A decade of autonomous-checkout systems all solved the same thing: the payment. Walk in, take what you want, walk out, get charged. Clever, and beside the point. In a stadium concourse the transaction was never the constraint.
The constraint is the forty-five-minute window at half-time, when thousands of people want the same six products at once and the shelf empties faster than anyone can refill it.
Four steps, no friction.
Enter
A fan walks up to an open bar. No gate, no app to open, no card to tap first. Identity and age are cleared once at the venue entrance, never at the shelf.
Take
Overhead cameras track what leaves the planogram. Pies, pints, the lot, mapped to a position on the tray, not to anyone’s face.
Leave
They walk off with what they grabbed. The basket is resolved from the vision feed and charged to the credential already on file.
Restock
The system watches stock fall in real time and tells staff exactly which tray to refill, and when, before it runs dry.
A live restocking engine.
Grab-and-go gets people away from the shelf in about four seconds. That only matters if the shelf is full. So the core of QueueZero is not the checkout, it is the engine that keeps supply ahead of demand.
- 01
Per-SKU stock sensing
The same overhead vision that resolves a basket counts what is left on every tray, continuously.
- 02
Predictive prompts
Staff are told which product to bring and when, ranked by how close each tray is to empty.
- 03
Pace matched to the rush
The engine reads the half-time spike and pushes restocking ahead of it, not after the gap appears.
The questions you will actually ask.
Built in the open, heading for a first pilot.
QueueZero is pre-pilot and honest about it. We have built and dressed a full bar in a London studio, run the vision pipeline on real people grabbing real pies and pints, and proved the parts that matter: the tracking, the basket resolution, and the live stock engine.
What we want next is one stand, one match day, with one operator willing to measure it properly.
What a pilot looks like
One stand. One match day. Let us prove it.
If you run concessions at a ground and the half-time rush is costing you, we should talk. We are looking for a first pilot partner.
