What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we'd lose half a day every week just matching invoices to our courier logs for 150+ lunch orders – it was total chaos during peak rushes. Now, everything auto-syncs with our route apps, and we've cut processing time by 12 hours weekly. Our drivers even upload sauce-stained receipts on the go via mobile, which has smoothed out relations with our fresh produce suppliers big time."
Maria Gonzalez
Operations Manager, QuickBite Pizza Deliveries
"I was skeptical about custom automation fitting our variable routes with grocery and meal kit stops, but they nailed it. In the first month, we saved $2,500 in overpayments from sloppy manual entries on refrigerated transport bills. It's not just software; it's like having an extra accountant who understands food delivery headaches, like tracking spoilage risks."
Raj Patel
Finance Lead, UrbanEats Meal Prep Fleet
"Our team was bogged down approving bills for seafood and bakery vendors while handling 200+ daily orders across the city. AIQ's system routes approvals via app notifications on our tablets, and we've boosted our on-time payment rate to 98% without missing a single catering deadline. Honestly, it's transformed how we manage cash flow for perishable inventory without adding headcount."

What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle invoices from multiple delivery partners?
In food delivery, juggling bills from various couriers can be a nightmare. Our custom AI system uses intelligent matching to link each invoice to specific routes, drivers, and orders based on details like timestamps and reference numbers. We integrate directly with your partner APIs or import CSV files seamlessly. For example, if you're using Uber Eats and independent fleets, it auto-categorizes and flags duplicates. This setup has helped clients reduce reconciliation time by 70%, letting you focus on expanding your menu instead of paperwork. Setup takes just a week, and we provide ongoing tweaks as your partnerships evolve.
What kind of time savings can I expect in my daily operations?
You're probably thinking about those endless afternoons sorting through delivery receipts. Our solution automates the entire cycle – from capture to payment – saving food delivery teams an average of 15 hours per week. Short punchy tasks like data entry vanish, while longer processes like approvals speed up via mobile alerts. One client, a mid-sized service with 50 daily runs, went from 20 hours of manual work to under 5, redirecting time to route optimization. The ROI kicks in fast: payback in 2-3 months through reduced errors and faster vendor payouts, ultimately boosting your operational efficiency without hiring extras.
Is this system secure for handling sensitive payment data?
Security is non-negotiable in food service, where delayed payments can sour supplier ties. We build with enterprise-grade encryption and comply with standards like PCI DSS for payments. Your invoices are stored in a private cloud, accessible only via role-based logins – drivers see upload interfaces, managers get approvals, finance handles exports. We've incorporated audit trails to track every change, perfect for end-of-year reviews on fleet costs. Unlike generic tools, our custom setup avoids third-party vulnerabilities, ensuring your cash flow data stays protected even during high-traffic delivery peaks. Clients report zero breaches since implementation.
Can it integrate with my existing accounting software?
Absolutely, integration is our specialty. Whether you're on QuickBooks, Xero, or something food-specific like Restaurant365, we create deep, two-way connections that pull invoice data directly into your ledgers. No more manual exports that lead to errors during busy seasons. For instance, it can auto-populate vendor details from your delivery logs, syncing payments with actual route expenses. Setup involves a quick audit of your current setup, followed by custom APIs that make it feel native. This has streamlined month-end closes for delivery ops, cutting them from days to hours and preventing those costly reconciliation headaches.
How much does a custom invoice automation cost for our size?
Costs vary by your scale, but for a typical food delivery service with 20-100 daily orders, expect an upfront build fee of $15,000-$30,000, with no ongoing subscriptions – you own it outright. This covers full customization to your workflows, like handling variable route invoices. The ROI is compelling: save $5,000+ monthly in labor and errors, often recouping investment in 4-6 months. We're transparent – during your free consultation, we quote based on your exact needs, factoring in integrations and training. It's not a template; it's built to fit your margins and growth, like automating fuel reimbursements without the fluff.
What if our delivery volume fluctuates seasonally?
Food delivery ebbs and flows – think holiday surges versus slow winters. Our system is designed to scale effortlessly, using cloud-based AI that handles 10x volume spikes without added costs. We build in predictive features, like forecasting invoice loads based on order trends from your POS data. During peaks, it prioritizes high-value bills, such as those from bulk catering suppliers. Clients in seasonal markets have seen uninterrupted performance, with auto-scaling ensuring no bottlenecks. Post-launch, we optimize quarterly to match your patterns, keeping efficiency high year-round and your team from drowning in paperwork when it matters most.
