The system

A self-checkout that runs itself. Almost.

Three views of what UCheX looks like in practice — the shopper, the attendant, and the math behind why it pays for itself.

View 01 · Customer

Branded, guided checkout

Customizable retail screens, dynamic produce charts, item-not-found lookup. The shopper gets through without needing help — and when they do, the assist button calls the attendant in seconds.

A day at the front end

How the front end actually uses it

Same store, same volume — a different labor curve and a different customer experience.

How do you cover a light morning without four cashiers — or closed lanes?

UCheX is on the floor from open. One attendant covers all four units while staffed lanes ramp up.

Every early shopper has a fast lane

That's one store, one shift. Now picture the labor curve across every store you run.

Enterprise SCO vs. S4 UCheX

Built for independents, not built around them

Enterprise SCO is engineered for 50,000+ sq ft stores with dedicated IT. UCheX takes the same hardware approach and rebuilds the rest for the way independents actually run.
