Mashgin

What is Mashgin?

Mashgin is an AI checkout system that uses computer vision to identify items placed on a tray without barcodes or scanning. It recognizes everything at once and completes the transaction in roughly 5 seconds.

Key capabilities of Mashgin

• Barcode-free recognition: Identifies packaged items, hot food and fresh produce
• 3D camera modeling: Multiple cameras build a real-time 3D model of each item
• Purpose-built hardware: Proprietary devices instead of commercial tablets
• Fast checkout: About 5 seconds per transaction; the vendor cites 3-4x faster checkout
• POS and payments integration: 50+ systems covering POS, payment networks and loyalty programs
• Support: 24/7 U.S.-based phone support and white-glove implementation

How Mashgin works

A customer places items on the Mashgin tray. Several 3D cameras capture each item at once, the AI matches them to the venue's catalog and the order total appears for payment. Mashgin states over 99.99% accuracy, including on hard-to-distinguish items and crowded trays, and the system connects to the venue's existing POS and payment setup.

Who uses Mashgin?

Mashgin serves high-throughput venues: more than 50% of U.S. professional stadiums, plus universities, hospitals, ski resorts, convenience stores and airports. Named clients include Sodexo, Aramark, Morrison Healthcare and Legends Global, across 5,000+ locations.

Mashgin pricing

Mashgin does not publish prices. Because it sells proprietary hardware with implementation support, quotes come from the vendor.

Mashgin alternatives

Related tools in this category include other AI retail and checkout systems, but Mashgin is distinguished by its custom 3D camera hardware and focus on cafeterias, stadiums and campuses.
