Why Choose Us

Here's the thing: off-the-shelf apps treat every delivery like a pizza run in a small town, but your business? It's got unique routes, quirky customer habits, and those insane dinner rushes. We ditch the templates. Instead, we build a custom AI system that plugs right into your POS, GPS trackers, and inventory logs. Think predictive routing that anticipates traffic jams like a seasoned dispatcher, or smart order bundling to maximize each driver's loop. You're probably thinking, 'Sounds great, but will it fit my setup?' Absolutely—it's flexible, scalable, and owned by you, not some subscription overlord.

What Makes Us Different:

Deep dive into your daily routes and order patterns for pinpoint accuracy
Seamless ties to tools like DoorDash APIs or your in-house fleet software
Ongoing tweaks based on real data, so it evolves with your growing menu

Why This Custom Fit Transforms Your Deliveries

Faster Routes, Happier Customers

Faster Routes, Happier Customers: No more guesswork. Our AI crunches live traffic data, historical delivery runs, and even local event schedules to optimize paths, shaving 20-30 minutes off average delivery times for items like hot wings or fresh salads. Picture this: your customers get their orders steaming hot, boosting satisfaction scores by 25% and keeping those five-star reviews rolling in during peak lunch hours.

Smarter Stock Management

Smarter Stock Management: Forecast demand like a pro chef prepping for a busy weekend brunch. By analyzing order history, seasonal trends, and weather impacts on comfort food cravings, we prevent those embarrassing 'out of stock' texts for staples like coffee or pastries, reducing waste by up to 40% and freeing up cash for more delivery vehicles or eco-friendly packaging.

Effortless Team Coordination

Effortless Team Coordination: Integrate everything into one dashboard—drivers get instant alerts on new burger orders, kitchen staff prioritizes based on prep times for pizzas or stir-fries. This cuts miscommunications that used to eat 15 hours a week in ticket juggling, letting your crew focus on what they do best: plating perfect meals and getting them out the door fast without remakes.

What Clients Say

"Before AIQ, our drivers were circling downtown blocks during the lunch rush, losing 10-15% of pizza orders to delays from traffic snarls. Now, with their custom routing that factors in construction zones and peak pedestrian areas, we're hitting 95% on-time deliveries, and our repeat customers for our signature pepperoni pies jumped 22% in just three months. It's like having an extra dispatcher who never sleeps."

Maria Gonzalez

Operations Manager, Urban Bites Pizzeria Delivery

"We were drowning in manual inventory checks—constantly running low on samosas and naan during weekend dinner rushes. AIQ built us a predictor that ties into our POS orders and even accounts for festival spikes in curry demand, cutting shortages by half. Saved us about $8K in wasted ingredients last quarter alone, especially on those spice-heavy batches. Feels custom-made for our chaotic Indian fusion menu."

Raj Patel

Owner, SpiceRoute Express Kitchen

"Juggling three separate apps for tracking meant constant errors, like delivering pho bowls to the wrong high-rise during dinner peak. Their unified system fixed that overnight, syncing with our kitchen timers for hot noodle orders. Delivery complaints dropped from 20 a day to under 5, and our drivers say it's easier than ever to hit their quotas without soggy arrivals."

Fleet Coordinator, QuickEats Asian Fusion Service

Simple 3-Step Process

Step 1

Map Your Workflow

We start with a deep chat about your routes, peak times, and pain points—like those nightmare traffic spots you hit every Friday. No fluff, just getting the lay of your land.

Step 2

Build and Test

Our engineers craft the AI from scratch, integrating your POS and GPS. We run pilots on a few routes first, tweaking until it's smoother than a well-oiled kitchen line—expect quick iterations based on real runs.

Step 3

Launch and Optimize

Go live with full training for your team. Then, we monitor and refine monthly, ensuring it adapts as your menu expands or new neighborhoods open up. You're in control, with full ownership from day one.

Why We're Different

We code from the ground up, not just mash up apps—meaning your system won't break when a vendor updates, unlike those fragile no-code setups that leave you scrambling during dinner service.
True ownership: No endless subscriptions. We hand you a robust, yours-forever tool that scales with your fleet, freeing you from the 'subscription chaos' that eats 20% of most delivery budgets.
Deep industry know-how: We've tackled food service quirks like variable order sizes and weather impacts, so our AI isn't generic—it's tuned to prevent soggy sandwiches from rain delays.
Hands-on builders, not consultants: Our team has run their own delivery ops, so we get the sweat of coordinating 50 drivers in a storm, delivering solutions that actually stick.
Flexible integrations that last: While others offer superficial links, we build two-way APIs that sync in real-time, eliminating data silos that cause those costly order duplicates.
Focus on your exact needs: We skip one-size-fits-all; every line of code matches your workflow, like prioritizing high-tip zones over generic shortest-path logic.
Proven scalability: From 10-driver startups to 200-bike fleets, our systems grow without hiccups, unlike off-the-shelf tools that cap out and force expensive upgrades.
Data privacy baked in: In an industry rife with customer info risks, we prioritize secure, compliant builds so you avoid fines while tracking deliveries flawlessly.
Ongoing evolution: Post-launch, we refine based on your metrics, turning one-time fixes into a living system that evolves faster than your competitors' stale apps.
Real results over hype: We're obsessed with metrics like on-time rates and waste reduction, delivering 25-40% efficiency gains because we've lived the delivery grind ourselves.

Common Questions

How does your custom AI handle varying delivery zones in a city like mine?

Let's be honest, cities are a maze—downtown gridlock one minute, suburbs the next. We tailor the AI to your specific zones by mapping them during our initial audit, then using machine learning to learn from your drivers' real routes. For example, if your Thai noodle spot serves both high-rises and outskirts, the system prioritizes multi-stop clusters while factoring in one-way streets or construction. It's not rigid; it adapts weekly based on data, ensuring 85-95% coverage without the guesswork of generic GPS apps. We've seen teams cut fuel costs by 15% just from smarter zoning.

Will this integrate with my existing POS and delivery partner apps?

Absolutely, and that's where we shine. You're probably thinking about the headache of syncing Square with DoorDash— we've done it dozens of times. Our custom builds create secure, two-way integrations that pull order data in real-time, updating inventory as soon as a pickup's confirmed. No more double-entry errors that lead to oversold burritos. For multi-partner ops, we layer in APIs from Uber Eats, Grubhub, and even in-house apps, creating a unified view. Setup takes 2-4 weeks, and it's all owned by you, so no vendor lock-in surprises.

What if my menu changes seasonally—does the AI adapt?

Seasonal shifts, like swapping salads for soups in winter, can throw off forecasts big time. Our system is built flexible: we train the AI on your historical data plus easy-update interfaces for new items. Say your taco truck adds holiday specials; you input specs once, and it starts predicting demand based on past trends and external factors like festivals. It's like a sous-chef who remembers every rush. Clients report 30% better stock accuracy after the first season, and we provide quarterly reviews to fine-tune without extra coding.

How secure is the customer data in your delivery AI?

Security is non-negotiable in food delivery—think addresses, allergies, payment details. We build with end-to-end encryption and comply with standards like GDPR and PCI-DSS, storing only what's needed for routing. Unlike shared platforms, your data stays in your owned system, with role-based access so drivers see routes but not full profiles. We've audited for vulnerabilities in high-volume ops, preventing breaches that could tank reviews. If a concern arises, our team handles it proactively, keeping your ops smooth and trustworthy.

Can this scale if I double my fleet next year?

Scaling shouldn't mean starting over—that's the trap of templated tools. Our architecture uses modular cloud tech, so adding 20 drivers or new warehouses is just config changes, not rebuilds. For instance, a client went from 15 to 50 bikes; the AI auto-adjusted routes without downtime, maintaining 92% efficiency. We design for growth, incorporating buffers for 2-3x volume, and monitor performance to preempt bottlenecks. It's custom-built for your trajectory, ensuring you grow without the growing pains.

What's the timeline and cost for a custom setup like this?

Timelines vary by complexity, but for a standard delivery AI—integrating POS, routing, and forecasts—we're looking at 6-8 weeks from kickoff to launch. Costs start around $25K for SMBs, scaling with features like voice agents. Think of it as an investment: one client recouped costs in four months via 25% faster deliveries. We break it down transparently—no hidden fees—and offer phased builds if budget's tight. You're getting a owned asset that pays off long-term, not monthly drains.
