Your kitchen display stops at the bump. Your guest is still waiting.
Visbi shows what your kitchen display can't: plates waiting at the pass, orders stacking at the make-line at the rush, and the minute a runner is needed, next to the ticket times you already have.
90 seconds, no uploads. You'll see whether your cameras can see the pass.
Where the kitchen time actually goes.

Kitchen or floor? Know which is the ceiling.
The same slow ticket has two very different fixes. Pushing the kitchen won't help if the plates are waiting at the pass.
When the kitchen is the ceiling
- Orders stacking at the make-line at the rush
- Ticket times long, the pass clear
- The move: a second cook on the line for the rush
When the floor is the ceiling
- Ticket times on target, plates waiting at the pass
- The kitchen is done; the guest is still waiting
- The move: a runner on the pass for the 7pm push
of diners named "hot food served cold" a bugbear, and the same share named a long wait for food and drink. Both can start after the kitchen is done, while a plate waits at the pass.

From day 14: kitchen or floor, which station, which shift, which location.

The move
A runner on the pass, a second cook on the line, or the table fired together. One move, at the minute it matters.
