Overview

Screenza brings menu creation and screen management together. It can generate menu boards, food imagery, promotional banners, and short looping videos, or extract menu items, descriptions, prices, and categories from a menu photo or PDF. That can shorten the work of moving a menu onto screens, though imported and AI-generated content needs human review: errors are possible, and Screenza does not guarantee AI output is unique or non-infringing.

Displays can run from a browser URL or a dedicated Android or Windows player app. The player caches content locally, so menus and promotional images keep displaying through an internet interruption and updates sync when connectivity returns. Screenza also offers help installing players and troubleshooting display devices.

Key features

Scheduling and display content

Dayparts can switch menus automatically, and schedules support custom weekdays and overnight windows. Playlists rotate boards and promotions; templates can add weather, alerts, QR codes, countdowns, and interactive menu search. This is a practical fit for restaurants with content that changes by service period, rather than a static menu alone.

Multiple locations

A single dashboard manages screens, menus, and schedules across restaurant locations. That central control is a stronger fit for operators coordinating several sites than for a single-screen venue, although the per-screen pricing means expansion increases the bill.

Integrations and account responsibility

Screenza uses Stripe as a payment processor and describes possible third-party AI, hosting, CDN, and analytics services. No restaurant POS integration is specified. Customers are responsible for account credential security and controlling authorized-user access, and Screenza does not state a security certification.

Pricing

The free plan costs 0.00 USD per free and allows one screen, 5 image credits per month, 10 menu parses per month, and 100 MB of storage. It includes a Powered by Screenza watermark, so it works best for a limited trial or a display where branding is acceptable.

Starter costs 16.00 USD per month, billed at $16 /screen/mo. It provides 20 image credits, 2 video credits, and 40 menu parses per screen per month, 1.0 GB of storage per screen, video uploads, and no watermark. It suits a small deployment that needs branded displays and modest content quotas.

Growth costs 28.00 USD per month, billed at $28 /screen/mo. Per screen, it raises the monthly allowances to 45 image credits, 5 video credits, and 100 menu parses, with 5.0 GB of storage. This is the more suitable tier when a team creates content more often or keeps more media on-screen.

Multi-location costs 42.00 USD per month, billed at $42 /screen/mo. It offers 80 image credits, 10 video credits, and 200 menu parses per screen per month, plus 15 GB of storage per screen. Its larger quotas suit content-heavy, multi-site operations, but the per-screen rate makes it the most expensive option as displays multiply. All paid plans include video uploads and remove the watermark. Unused monthly image credits and menu parses expire at the end of each billing cycle without rollover.

Platforms

Screenza supports Android, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows. Displays can use a browser URL or a dedicated Android or Windows player app; the listed platform range is broader than the dedicated player options described.

Who it's for

Screenza is best for restaurants that want menu creation, scheduling, and display management in one service, particularly those running multiple locations or needing menus to keep playing through internet interruptions. It is less compelling for venues that need a named POS connection, cannot accept a watermark on the free tier, or expect unused AI credits to carry forward.

Pros and cons

Pros: Menu OCR from photos or PDFs can reduce re-entry work, while AI tools create boards and promotional media.
Pros: Daypart scheduling, playlists, and centralized multi-location controls support changing content across sites.
Pros: Cached playback keeps menus and promotional images visible during internet outages.
Cons: Free use is restricted to one screen and carries a watermark, with limited monthly credits, parses, and storage.
Cons: Paid plans charge per screen, and monthly image credits and menu parses expire without rollover.
Cons: AI and parsed content can be inaccurate or non-unique, so customer review remains necessary.

Verdict

Choose Screenza if you need restaurant menus and promotions scheduled across screens or locations, with cached playback to keep content visible during internet outages. Its menu import and centralized controls are the clearest reasons to choose it; look elsewhere if per-screen costs, non-rolling AI quotas, or the lack of a specified POS integration are deal-breakers.
