Digital menu boards for bakeries

A bakery counter changes by the hour. What came out of the oven at seven is gone by eleven, the price of butter moves the pastries, and a chalkboard written at dawn is wrong by lunch. Change it from your phone between batches and the screen above the counter has it straight away.

One screen free, for as long as you like, with a small counterboard.com band on the board, no card. Without the band £14 a month for one screen, and £7 for each screen after it. No VAT charged.

The board of Rise & Shine Bakery, an example shop, with panels for bread, pastries and cakes
Drawn by Counterboard AI in about a minute, from a few words and a price list. Rise & Shine Bakery is an example shop: yours is drawn to your own description, with your name and your prices on it.

Why shops move

You make the changes, not us

Most signage companies hand you a screen and keep the software. A new price, a line you have sold out of, a special for the weekend: you email it over and wait, and it goes up when it suits them.

Counterboard hands you the keys. Changing the pastry prices and what is still on the shelf is typing the new number into your phone behind the counter: the board is drawn again with it and every screen in the shop has it in about a minute. We draw your board for you, with your prices on it, at no extra cost. We just do not keep hold of it afterwards.

What you get on day one

Your board, drawn for you, in about a minute

You do not start at a blank screen and you do not hire a designer. Say how the board should look, type your prices or photograph the list you have, and press one button. About a minute later a finished board is on the screen: your name across the top and every price printed on it, in sections for Bread, Pastries and Cakes, or whatever yours are called. Not quite right? Say what to change, in words, and it is drawn again.

Make a breakfast board and an afternoon board, and switch the screen between them when the bread runs out and the cakes take over.

Getting your prices on it

Photograph the menu you already have

Take a picture of your printed board, your leaflet or your delivery listing. The prices are read off it in seconds and come back typed out, for you to check before the board is drawn. No typing out a hundred lines, which is the reason most shops never get round to this.

You do not have to do even that yourself the first time. Send us the photograph and we set your first board up for you, at no extra cost, before you have paid us anything.

What you need

Probably the TV you already have

A smart TV runs it on its own. An older one needs a streaming stick in the HDMI socket, about £30 from any shop, or we send you one set up. Each screen keeps the menu on itself, so the board stays up when the line goes down. The price goes by how many screens you put up: £14 a month for one screen, and £7 for each screen after it.
