POS System Companies & Dealers in Jessup, PA

Precision Point of Sale, which also operates as Precision POS and Precision Software Innovations, is a restaurant technology company based in northeastern Pennsylvania. It builds and sells its own point-of-sale software and hardware for restaurants, so buyers are dealing with a developer rather than a reseller of another brand. Its website now sends visitors to AvaLux, a newer platform from the same founders, which the company describes as the next generation of its POS and payments product.

Background

Business directories list the company's founding year as 2011. Its corporate office is in Jessup, Pennsylvania, and Gino Piccolino is named as founder and CEO. Posts from the team say the business began in a basement, grew into an anchor tenant at the Scranton Enterprise Center incubator, and now has customers in more than one country. Those customers range from small independent restaurants to large franchise operators and food distribution partners. The move to AvaLux is presented as a change of product, not of people: the team that built Precision is developing AvaLux.

POS systems and features

The Precision product line is built for food service. It centers on a tablet-friendly, cloud-based POS that runs on Android, along with online ordering, branded mobile apps and kitchen display screens. Restaurant features shown on the website include:

• Scanning a QR code on a customer's receipt to bring the order back up at the terminal for quicker checkout
• Contactless Apple and Android wallet payments through the card reader
• House accounts, so orders can be charged to a saved account and settled later
• Reporting and analytics that help managers track costs and see which menu items sell best

On the hardware side, Precision offers its own all-in-one terminals. The S15 has a single 15.6-inch screen and a built-in 80mm thermal printer. The D15 adds a second screen facing the customer, which can show advertising. The L14 is a 14-inch unit with a wide viewing angle. The company has also announced PrecisionWear, a set of paging watches that would let staff call a manager, learn when food is ready or know when to print a check.

The AvaLux platform

AvaLux P2 moves the POS toward a wider restaurant operating system, adding AI, voice control and tools for staff communication. AvaLux Studio lets operators add menu items and modifiers by voice, improve food photos and create specials. It can also suggest ingredients and menu descriptions from a photo. PayLux builds payment processing into the POS, with dual pricing options and no separate terminals. Other products under the AvaLux name include Dexter, PlateBuilder.ai, Customer Assist, ServeNow, Hub and Wheelz.

For restaurants comparing POS vendors in the Lakewood area, Precision stands out because it is a regional developer that controls its software, hardware and payments in-house. It focuses only on hospitality and is now putting voice and AI features into its main product. Buyers should be aware that new systems are being sold under the AvaLux name.
