Toronto, September 12, 2025 -

We are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between Volanté Systems and Amniscient. This collaboration combines Volanté's trusted point-of-sale (POS) solution with Amnisicent's AI computer vision platform, giving new and existing self-service kiosks the benefits of computer vision with just a single line of code. Backed by more than 1,000 kiosks and one billion transactions, Volanté brings unmatched reach and reliability. Now, in partnership with Amniscent, this proven platform is set to transform how organizations deliver food service at scale.

At Volanté, we are committed to providing scalable and reliable POS solutions that streamline operations and enhance the customer experience. By partnering with Amniscient, a leader in real world applications for computer vision AI, we are excited to expand our offerings and provide even greater value to our clients. Amniscient specializes in a novel approach to computer vision, layering onto existing POS software, and turning existing self-service units into truly autonomous self-checkout kiosks. Benefits include 4X faster throughput, multiple item transactions in seconds, and an open door to increased customer sales.

Implementation is designed for easy adoption, requiring only a single line of code and minimal additional hardware. Rollout will be straightforward with object capture handled entirely on the iPhones already available.

"Our number one goal is providing innovative tools that simplify technology and deliver tangible business impact. We are thrilled to be unlocking new possibilities for the hospitality and food service industries." - Volanté Systems CEO, Sunil Selby

Key opportunities for cafeteria concepts lie in reducing friction during peak service periods and establishing greater consistency across products. Volanté and Amniscient's partnership promises to be an unlock for the hospitality and food service industries.

"I started Amniscient to tackle the challenge of bringing automation to school cafeterias during the pandemic, a project that ultimately failed because there was no simple, fast, and accurate computer vision option under a hundred million dollars. It is an incredible moment to see years of work culminating in a plug and play object detection solution for students, employees, and cafeterias all over the country that you can build and deploy in a week without a machine learning engineer or data scientist." - Amniscient CEO, Suresh Yalamanchili

To learn more about the possibilities this partnership unlocks, we invite you to explore our upcoming solutions.
