NCR Voyix Corp. announced the launch of a new AI‑accelerated suite of microservices‑based retail and restaurant applications built on its Voyix Commerce Platform on January 7, 2026. The suite, designed to run on a cloud‑to‑edge architecture, promises faster software updates, real‑time analytics, and enhanced customer experiences across physical retail and dining operations.
The announcement marks a key milestone in Voyix’s transformation from a legacy hardware business to a high‑margin, recurring‑revenue software platform. By embedding AI into its core commerce stack, the company aims to accelerate innovation, reduce time‑to‑market for new features, and increase the value of its subscription‑based services—an essential step toward higher operating leverage and predictable cash flow.
Financially, Voyix’s shift to software has already begun to pay off. In the most recent quarter, the company reported revenue of $1.23 billion, up 12% year‑over‑year, driven largely by growth in its retail and restaurant segments. Operating margin expanded to 9.9% from 9.5% in the prior year, reflecting the higher mix of high‑margin software contracts and improved operational efficiency. The new AI suite is expected to further lift margins by reducing the need for manual configuration and accelerating deployment cycles.
Segment analysis shows that retail applications accounted for 58% of the new suite’s projected revenue, while restaurant solutions represent 42%. The retail portion is expected to benefit from increased demand for omnichannel capabilities, whereas the restaurant segment targets real‑time inventory and workforce optimization—areas where AI can deliver immediate cost savings and revenue growth.
Chief Product Officer Nick East emphasized the strategic importance of the launch, stating, “Our next‑generation portfolio is more than a technology upgrade—it’s a catalyst for acceleration. After several years of intentional modernization and the super‑charging effect of AI on our experienced technology teams, we’ve reached an inflection point.” This comment underscores the company’s confidence that the suite will drive adoption and recurring revenue growth.
The company will showcase the new applications at the National Retail Federation’s ‘26: Retail’s Big Show in New York City, scheduled for January 11‑13, 2026. The event will provide an opportunity for Voyix to demonstrate the platform’s capabilities to a broad audience of retailers and restaurateurs, reinforcing its position as a unified commerce leader.
