You do not need an installer to get a screen working

Search for digital signage in Toronto and most of what comes up is installers. They quote a project, supply the hardware and book a visit. That suits a head office lobby with a video wall. For one to twenty screens in a local business, software you run yourself is faster and costs far less.

Use the TV you already own

VYPA runs on Samsung Smart TVs, Amazon Fire TV, Android and Google TV, Raspberry Pi 4 and 5, and any modern browser. If your TV can run one of those, it can be a sign.

No site visit to book

Install the player app, sign in and pair the screen with your account. The only physical job is hanging the TV, and that is probably done already.

You make the changes

New price, new special, closed for the long weekend. Update it yourself from your phone in a minute, without emailing an agency or waiting on a technician.

No smart TV? Plug a VYPA Android Stick (CA$49.99) or Android Box (CA$69.99) into any HDMI port and you are ready. See the players

    Samsung Smart TV, Fire TV, Google Play, Raspberry Pi or the Web Player.

What you get

Cloud digital signage that does the everyday jobs well

VYPA is built for busy owners and small teams, not for a signage department. Everything below is in every plan.

Images, video and PDF

Drop in photos, clips and PDF menus or price lists. Web pages work too.

Playlists

Put items in order, set how long each one shows, and loop it.

Schedules

Breakfast in the morning, lunch at noon, a weekend sale on Saturday.

Layouts

Split the screen into zones: a menu on one side, a promotion on the other.

Offline playback

If the Wi-Fi drops, the screen keeps playing what it has stored.

Many screens, one login

Run a single TV or screens across several GTA locations from one dashboard.

What Toronto businesses put on screen

Whether it is a café on Queen West, a grocery in Scarborough or a clinic in North York, the job is the same: tell the people already in the room something useful, and keep it current.

Menus that change with the day

Schedule breakfast, lunch and dinner menus, take a sold-out item off in seconds, and run the daily special where the line forms.

A signage installer, or software you run yourself

Installers are right for some jobs. For most local businesses, this is how the two compare. Looking at other software instead? See how VYPA compares.
