  ItsaCheckmate (Checkmate) is restaurant middleware that connects point-of-sale
  systems to delivery marketplaces and ordering channels, providing two-way
  integration, menu management, and consolidated reporting across 50+ POS
  systems and 100+ ordering platforms for tens of thousands of restaurant
  locations. Through its Marketplace for Developers, Checkmate offers a
  self-service open REST API that lets technology partners build a single
  integration to read and write menus, orders, and locations across many POS
  systems. The API uses OAuth-style token authentication with short-lived,
  scoped access and refresh tokens, ready-to-use Postman collections, and an
  llms.txt index for AI agents.
