Ameza Solutions

The all-in-one smart retail platform replacing legacy POS and pricing systems
Austin

About Ameza Solutions

Ameza Solutions builds a unified retail system designed for independent and small-chain stores that are outgrowing outdated POS setups and manual pricing processes.

The platform combines point-of-sale software, electronic shelf labels, and a cloud-based management dashboard into a single, integrated system. Store owners can manage prices, inventory, and promotions centrally while keeping shelf prices and checkout fully synchronized in real time. The system is designed to remain operational even during internet outages.

Most existing POS solutions treat checkout, pricing, and in-store hardware as separate products, which leads to errors, inefficiencies, and higher operating costs. Ameza is built as one system from the ground up, reducing complexity and day-to-day labor while giving owners clear visibility and control over their stores.

Ameza focuses on independent and ethnic grocery retailers who are underserved by enterprise software but need more reliability and control than legacy POS systems can provide.

Problem statement

Independent and small-chain retailers rely on outdated POS systems and manual pricing processes that were never designed to work together. Prices are updated at the register but not at the shelf, leading to mismatches, customer disputes, and compliance issues. Changing prices or promotions requires significant manual labor, often outside business hours, increasing costs and error rates.

Most POS providers treat checkout, pricing, and in-store hardware as separate tools. This fragmentation forces store owners to manage multiple systems that don’t stay in sync, lack real-time visibility, and break down during internet outages. Enterprise retail platforms solve these problems but are too complex and expensive for independent stores.

As a result, retailers waste time, lose customer trust, and operate with limited control over pricing accuracy, inventory visibility, and store-level execution.
