Our Custom Lead Scoring Built Just for Food Delivery
With years of experience integrating AI into fast-paced food service ops, we've helped delivery fleets turn chaotic lead lists into streamlined revenue machines.
Why Choose Us
Let's be honest, off-the-shelf tools treat all leads like they're the same bland menu item. But in food delivery, your prospects range from curious app users to loyal corporate caterers. We build a <span class="gradient">custom AI lead scoring system</span> tailored to your exact workflow—analyzing app interactions, delivery zone data, and order history to score leads on conversion potential. No more generic filters. This is flexible, built for you, ditching one-size-fits-all limitations for a perfect fit that boosts your operational efficiency and customer experience. Here's the thing: we're not assembling puzzle pieces; we're cooking up a unified system you own, integrated seamlessly with your dispatch software and CRM.
What Makes Us Different:
Why This Transforms Your Delivery Game
Higher Conversion from Smarter Prioritization
Picture this: instead of cold-calling every new app user, your team targets those who've browsed high-margin items like family platters or premium sushi rolls. Our system scores them 8/10 based on behavior signals such as time spent on allergen filters or add-to-cart actions, leading to 30% more orders closed in the first week—think turning a simple app peek into a confirmed dinner delivery. You're probably thinking, 'Finally, efficiency without the hassle of sifting through ghost kitchens' noise.'
Optimized Routes and Reduced Empty Runs
Leads scored for location within your delivery radii and projected order size—like grouping requests for large catering trays—mean your drivers hit clusters of hot prospects in high-density neighborhoods, cutting fuel costs by 20% and empty runs during lunch rushes. Like seasoning a dish just right, this custom build matches your urban sprawl challenges, ensuring every shift packs in deliveries without detours past no-go zones.
Faster Scaling During Rush Seasons
When holidays like Thanksgiving spike demand for turkey dinners or festive platters, our AI adapts scoring to prioritize bulk inquiries from event planners, helping you ramp up from 200 to 500 daily orders without adding staff—just by focusing on high-volume leads first. It's that unexpected boost, like finding the perfect courier shortcut through back alleys, keeping your customer experience top-notch with on-time hot meals.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, we were drowning in leads from our app promos for lunch specials, but half never placed an order. Their custom scoring now flags the real deal-makers—like those searching for vegan bowls within our 5-mile delivery zone—and we've doubled our repeat business in three months without extra marketing spend on social ads."
Maria Gonzalez
Operations Manager at QuickBite Urban Deliveries
"Our delivery peaks during dinner hours were chaos; drivers chasing duds while hot leads for family meals went cold. This system scores based on past cart abandons for items like biryani combos and precise GPS location, and honestly, it's cut our no-show rate from 15% to under 5% in just two months. Game-changer for our small fleet navigating city traffic."
Raj Patel
Founder of SpiceRush Indian Kitchen
"I was skeptical about AI for leads, but they built it around our corporate catering focus on boxed lunches and coffee setups. Now, prospects with event keywords like 'team meeting' or 'office holiday party' get top scores, and we've landed three big office contracts worth over $10K each in the last quarter. No more guessing—it's precise for our midday rush schedules."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does custom lead scoring differ from standard CRM tools for food delivery?
Standard CRM tools often apply blanket rules that don't account for the nuances of food delivery, like varying demand by neighborhood or time of day. Our custom system, built by AIQ Labs, analyzes your specific data—such as app interactions, delivery history, and even weather impacts on orders—to create a scoring model that's truly yours. For instance, it might prioritize leads from high-density areas showing interest in quick-prep items during lunch rushes. This tailored approach means you're not wasting time on low-potential prospects, potentially increasing your order volume by 25-40% while fitting seamlessly into your operational flow. We handle the heavy lifting, so your team focuses on what they do best: getting food to doors fast.
What data sources does the lead scoring use in food service?
We pull from your core systems: app analytics for user behavior, CRM for past interactions, and dispatch logs for route efficiency. Think order frequency, average basket size, and location signals. If you have POS integrations, we layer in menu preferences too. Unlike generic tools, this isn't just demographics—it's food-specific, scoring a lead higher if they've abandoned a cart with family-sized portions. You're probably thinking about privacy; we ensure everything complies with regs like GDPR, building secure, owned systems that give you full control without relying on third-party data dumps.
How long does it take to implement for a small delivery service?
For most small to medium food delivery ops, we wrap up in 4-6 weeks. It starts with a quick audit of your current setup—maybe a day or two reviewing your lead gen from apps and promos. Then, building the model takes about three weeks, testing another week to simulate real scenarios like weekend surges. The beauty? It's non-disruptive; we integrate in phases so your deliveries keep rolling. Post-launch, we provide training sessions, and the system starts delivering value immediately, often recouping costs through 20% faster lead conversions within the first month.
Can this scale if my delivery business grows rapidly?
Absolutely—our systems are designed for growth, handling everything from 100 daily orders to thousands without a hitch. We use scalable frameworks that adapt as you expand routes or add new menus. For example, if you're ramping up for a city-wide expansion, the AI automatically incorporates new zone data into scoring, prioritizing leads in untapped areas. No need for costly overhauls; it's flexible by design, reducing operational bottlenecks and ensuring your customer experience stays smooth even as volume spikes. We've seen clients double their fleet size with zero downtime in lead management.
What if we already have some lead tools in place?
No problem—we specialize in bridging gaps without starting from scratch. Whether you're using basic CRM filters or app-based tracking, we audit and enhance them with our custom AI layer. For food delivery, this might mean overlaying scoring on your existing Uber Eats integrations, flagging high-value leads like corporate groups based on historical data. The result? A unified workflow that eliminates silos, cuts manual reviews by 50%, and boosts efficiency. We own the integration, so you avoid brittle connections that fail during busy nights.
How do you ensure the scoring is accurate for our unique menu?
Accuracy comes from training the model on your actual data—think specifics like high-demand items such as sushi rolls or pizza deals. We start with historical leads and outcomes, refining algorithms to predict conversions based on factors unique to your service, like dietary preferences or promo responses. Over time, it self-improves with feedback loops from your team's input. In one case, a client saw scoring accuracy hit 85% within two months, directly tying to more on-time deliveries and happier customers. It's all about that custom fit, ensuring it resonates with your workflow and boosts your bottom line.
