The "After-Hours Hunger" Problem
Customers calling for last-minute menu changes, like swapping out seasonal specials, when your food truck is parked miles away at a farmers market
Missed catering inquiries for events like weddings or corporate lunches during peak lunch rush hours when lines are out the door
After-hours calls for special dietary orders, such as gluten-free tacos or vegan options, going straight to voicemail
Struggling to confirm pre-orders for high-volume items like pulled pork sandwiches while prepping ingredients in a cramped truck kitchen
Lost repeat business from loyal festival-goers who can't reach you amid the noise and crowds at events like music festivals
Handling sudden location changes due to weather or vendor reroutes, and updating wait times for items like fresh fries manually over the phone
Our Custom-Built AI Voice Agents Keep Your Food Truck Rolling 24/7
We've powered mobile eateries from street vendors to festival favorites, integrating AI that speaks your language – literally.
Why Choose Us
You're probably thinking, 'Another AI gimmick?' Let's be honest, off-the-shelf bots sound robotic and miss the mark on food truck chaos. We build yours from scratch, trained on your menu, locations, and vibe. Picture this: a customer calls at midnight for tomorrow's taco special. Our agent confirms the order, updates your inventory log, and texts you the details at dawn. No more frantic voicemails or lost sales. We tailor it to your workflow – syncing with your POS for real-time stock checks and even handling accents from diverse crowds at events.
What Makes Us Different:
Capture Every Opportunity Around the Clock
Never Miss a Lead, Day or Night
Never Miss a Lead, Day or Night: Food trucks live on impulse buys like a post-concert taco run. Our AI grabs every call – imagine that 11 PM group ordering your loaded nachos. Result? 30% more bookings in the first month, turning after-hours quiet into steady revenue from ghost kitchen tie-ins or pop-up events.
Boost Customer Satisfaction with Instant Responses
Boost Customer Satisfaction with Instant Responses: Hangry customers waiting in line for coffee don't want delays. Your AI agent dishes out menu details on allergen info or order confirmations in seconds, like a friendly barista who's always brewing. We've seen satisfaction scores jump 25% as repeat diners feel valued with quick upsell suggestions.
Streamline Operations Without Extra Hands
Streamline Operations Without Extra Hands: Juggling grill flips and phone buzzers? Let AI handle inquiries on daily specials or ingredient availability, freeing you to focus on plating. It auto-updates your truck's GPS location and wait times for popular items like craft burgers, cutting manual checks and preventing overbooked slots during busy farmers markets.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we'd lose half our weekend catering leads for office parties to unanswered calls during our Saturday market shifts. Now, the voice agent books everything from our mobile POS setup, even while we're frying falafel fresh at the farmers market. Added $2K in bookings last month alone – total game changer for our two-truck operation."
Maria Gonzalez
Owner, Falafel on Wheels Food Truck
"I was skeptical about AI handling my BBQ truck's custom orders for ribeye cuts or extra spicy rubs, but it's spot-on with options and sides like coleslaw. Handled a rush of 20 calls during a music festival power outage – confirmed 15 pre-orders for brisket without me lifting a finger. Saved us from a slow post-event week and kept our smoke rings rolling."
Jamal Reed
Founder and Pitmaster, Smoky Nomad BBQ Truck
"Our vegan wrap truck was missing evening inquiries for customizable fillings like tempeh or kale slaw big time. The custom agent now texts us order details and integrates seamlessly with our Square terminal for payments. Went from capturing just 10% of after-hours calls to nearly 100% in two weeks. Customers rave about the quick confirmations on wrap sizes too."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI handle my changing daily menu?
We connect it directly to your menu management tool or a simple daily upload. For instance, if your tacos sell out mid-day, the agent updates in real-time to suggest alternatives like burritos. This keeps responses accurate without you micromanaging. We've helped trucks like yours avoid those awkward 'sorry, we're out' calls that frustrate customers. Setup takes under an hour, and it learns your patterns over time for even smarter suggestions.
Will it integrate with my food truck's POS system?
Absolutely – we build custom links to systems like Square or Toast, common for mobile setups. When a customer calls to order, the AI checks stock, processes the payment if needed, and logs it straight to your dashboard. No more manual entry after a long shift. One truck owner cut their end-of-day reconciliation from 45 minutes to 5. It's all about fitting your exact workflow, whether you're at a market or parked curbside.
What if a call is too complicated for the AI?
Our agents are smart but not perfect – for tricky stuff like custom event catering or disputes, it seamlessly transfers to your phone or voicemail with full context. Think of it as your always-on assistant that handles 80% of routine calls, like menu questions or basic pre-orders. In tests with food trucks, this handover happened less than 10% of the time, saving owners hours weekly. We train it on your specifics to minimize transfers.
Is this secure for handling customer payments over the phone?
Security is non-negotiable, especially with card details. We use encrypted voice processing and comply with PCI standards, never storing sensitive info on our end. For payments, it guides customers to secure links or integrates with your POS for tokenization. A BBQ truck we worked with processed $5K in festival orders safely last summer without issues. You own the data, and we audit everything to keep your mobile business protected.
How much does a custom AI voice agent cost for a food truck?
Pricing starts around $2,500 for the build, tailored to your needs – no endless subscriptions. For a basic setup handling calls and bookings, it's a one-time investment that pays off fast. Add-ons like POS integration might bump it to $3,500, but we focus on ROI: one truck recouped costs in three weeks via extra orders. We walk you through a free quote based on your call volume and features, ensuring it's built for your budget and scale.
Can it work offline if I'm at a remote event?
It needs a signal, but we optimize for spotty coverage common at outdoor markets. The agent queues responses and syncs when you're back online, ensuring no lost orders. For example, during a rainy festival, a client's AI held 20 inquiries and confirmed them post-event, capturing sales that would've vanished. We test for your typical spots, making it reliable even when Wi-Fi flakes out.
