Digital signage, rewritten around AI.

Ornex is the signage CMS for restaurants, retail and hospitality teams who've outgrown clunky legacy tools. Generate content, run your fleet, and attribute revenue — from one AI-first control room.

Fire TV · webOS · Tizen · browser — one player core.

Why we built Ornex

Signage software is stuck in 2015.

The market is fragmented, feature-thin, and dated. The people running multi-location screens deserve better tools than the ones IT bought a decade ago.

01

AI is a checkbox, not a foundation.

Legacy vendors bolt on one image-gen button and call it AI. Meanwhile you're still hand-writing captions, hand-tagging media, and hand-reading dashboards nobody has time to open.

02

Fleets are managed by spreadsheet.

You've got screens in 12 venues on 3 hardware types. Which are offline right now? Which venue's menu board didn't roll over at 4pm? Nobody knows until a customer complains.

03

Signage is a cost, not a revenue line.

You can prove uptime. You can't prove impact. Without a line from what played to what sold, budget for signage is always the first thing cut.

What Ornex does

Everything a modern signage team needs — in one product.

Grouped the way you'd actually use it, not by which team shipped it.

AI content

Content that makes itself

AI

Generate with AI

Image, video or promo copy from a prompt — with an optional reference image for image-to-image or image-to-video.

AI

Self-organizing library

Every upload gets an AI pass: description, tags, extracted text, quality score and suggested use. Search by what's in the image.

Ask Ornex Copilot

Natural-language assistant on every page. Question, create, or run multi-step jobs — every change confirmed before it happens.

Fleet & devices

One control room for every screen

Any hardware

Fire TV, LG webOS, Samsung Tizen / SSSP, and any browser. One player core — features behave identically across devices.

Regions, groups, tags

Region → Location → Screen hierarchy plus free-form tags across 11 record types. Target once, apply everywhere.

Device Map

Every screen on a geographic map, colour-coded by status. Fly to any marker to answer 'what's down, and where?'

Content composition

From a single image to a video wall

Playlists

Ordered loops with per-item durations. Drag to reorder, loop or shuffle. The atomic unit of scheduling.

Multi-zone Layouts

Split a screen into zones — main promo, sidebar menu, bottom ticker. Each zone plays its own playlist or widget.

Live Widgets

Clock, weather, RSS, social, Google Slides/Docs, Figma, flight boards, custom HTML — self-updating, no maintenance.

Text overlays

Scrolling tickers that ride on top of whatever is already playing. Target by group, device or tag with a start/end window.

Video walls

Stitch multiple physical screens into one frame-locked canvas. A single playlist spans the wall.

Scan Campaigns (QR)

Trackable QR codes with redirect, webhook or deep-link modes. Scan-to-claim vouchers with per-user dedupe.

Scheduling & automation

Rules that run themselves

Scheduling with priority

Weekly / once / monthly patterns. Target screens, groups, regions, locations or tags. Priority (0–999) wins overlaps.

Automation triggers

WHEN a condition — time, weather, POS event, pushed signal — DO an action: swap playlist or layout, show widget, fire alert.

Alerts & broadcasts

Emergency take-over with severity, auto-expiry and typed confirmation. Cancel to return screens to normal instantly.

Analytics & revenue

Proof of play. Proof of sale.

Analytics + CSV export

Every play logged. Impressions, dwell by daypart, top content, filterable events, exportable for compliance.

Sales Impact (POS)

Connect Square, Shopify, Toast or any webhook. Ornex attributes revenue to what played at that venue around the purchase.

Weekly AI Digest

Every Monday: plain-English review of what over- and under-performed, plus scheduling-hygiene findings with one-click fixes.

How it works

From an unplugged TV to revenue in view — in an afternoon.

  1. 01Screens → Pair a screen

    Pair your screens in seconds

    Open the Ornex player on Fire TV, webOS, Tizen or a browser — it shows a 6-character code. Type it in the dashboard and the screen is live. Or go admin-first: generate the code, read it out to whoever's at the TV.

  2. 02Network → Groups & Sites

    Organize by region, group and tag

    Build a Region → Location → Screen tree, then bundle screens into groups (‘Lobby Screens’, ‘Menu Boards’) and tag anything with free-form labels. Schedules, overlays and triggers all target these.

  3. 03Media Library → Generate with AI

    Build content — or ask AI to

    Upload media (auto-tagged on the way in), generate images, video or copy with AI, compose playlists or multi-zone layouts, drop in live widgets. Or just ask Ornex: ‘generate three happy-hour promos.’

  4. 04Schedules · Triggers · Analytics

    Schedule, automate, measure

    Assign a playlist to a group with a time window and priority. Set triggers that swap content on weather or POS events. Every play is logged — connect your POS and revenue attributes to the content that ran.

AI depth
Throughout · not bolted on

Most vendors ship one AI button. Ornex ships eight surfaces.

AI isn't a feature in Ornex — it's the substrate. Every image is analyzed on the way in. Every week your network reviews itself. Every action the Copilot proposes is one click from live.

AI surface

Content generation

Image, video and promo copy from a prompt. Image-to-image and image-to-video with a reference. Aspect ratios matched to screen orientation.

AI surface

Media auto-analysis

Every upload gets a description, search tags, extracted text, a 0–100 quality score and a suggested use — so ‘coffee’ finds IMG_4821.jpg.

One assistant across your whole network. Ask questions, generate variations, run multi-step jobs. Every state change is confirmed before it fires.

Data Explorer summaries

Every raw dataset — play logs, signals, trigger firings, conversions, footfall — has an Analyse button that writes an AI summary of what it shows.

AI surface

Trigger-building from a sentence

‘When London is above 30°C, swap to my iced-coffee playlist on all screens.’ Ornex builds the rule and shows it to you to confirm.

AI surface

Revenue attribution

Sales events matched to the content playing at that venue around the time of purchase. Revenue-per-play by venue, network-wide.

AI surface

MCP server (50+ tools)

Ornex ships as an MCP server so AI agents like Claude can operate your network conversationally end-to-end.

Nothing auto-applies

Every AI action is proposed first and only runs when you click Apply.

Master off switch

One toggle server-side hard-blocks every AI call across your tenant.

Transparent credits

One monthly budget, per-feature breakdown, opt-in overage — no card on file.

Multi-location was the design brief, not an afterthought. Everything — targeting, rollout, reporting — scales without extra ceremony.

  • Live fleet visibility

    Online / offline / awaiting-pairing across every venue. A pulsing live count in the top bar tracks changes in real time.

  • Every screen on a map

    Geographic Device Map colour-coded by status, with fly-to and filters. Answer ‘what's down, and where?’ in one glance.

  • One player core, all TVs

    Fire TV, webOS, Tizen and browser share one runtime. Layouts, widgets, triggers and real-time reactions behave identically.

  • Audit log for everything

    Filterable, paginated record of every create, update and delete — by user, entity and date, with expandable before/after diffs.

What operators say
We replaced a menu-board vendor we'd used for eight years in a weekend. The Copilot did the heavy lifting on rebuilding our schedules.
[PLACEHOLDER] Ops Lead
38-venue café group
First time we've been able to show finance that a specific promo drove specific revenue. That conversation used to end at ‘impressions.’
[PLACEHOLDER] Marketing Director
Regional restaurant brand
The weekly AI digest finds scheduling gaps faster than my team does. We stopped having a Monday standup about it.
