The tech company said that its system has been designed to automatically detect the language spoken by the customer and immediately respond in that language to carry out the ordering process.

Hi Auto co-founder and CEO Roy Baharav said: “To best serve our communities, restaurants need solutions that speak to all customers, and the US is the world’s second-largest Spanish-speaking country.

“Our expanded partnership with Checkers and Rally’s represents a huge breakthrough for the country’s Spanish-speaking and bilingual communities, and allows every restaurant to cater to the Spanish-speaking population at any time.”
