The screenshots of the backend “Assistant” in [1] pretty much seem like this is what Burger King is expanding upon. It seemed already able to determine out-of-stocks and was gathering cleanliness data for the bathrooms.

From what I understood it was tracking production, providing reminders to check the bathroom, and providing projected order volume information. https://www.goicc.com/kitchen-minder-tech-support https://www.goicc.com/kitchen-minder-tech-support
