Let's be honest, running a ghost kitchen means you're slammed with orders, not scrolling through marketing tools. Here's the thing: our custom marketing automation isn't some off-the-shelf band-aid. We build it from the ground up to fit your exact flow – from pulling DoorDash order data to firing off personalized texts for that vegan bowl fan.

What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Time and Revenue Without the Hassle
Slash Weekly Marketing Time by 15 Hours
Slash Weekly Marketing Time by 15 Hours: You're probably thinking, 'I barely have time to restock spices or prep dough for the dinner rush.' Our system automates promo scheduling around peak hours, like auto-posting Instagram stories for Friday night surges in pizza orders. Teams report reclaiming full shifts for kitchen ops, turning wasted hours into focused prep time that boosts efficiency across the board, with one bistro seeing 20% faster table turnover.
Drive 25-40% ROI Through Smarter Targeting
Drive 25-40% ROI Through Smarter Targeting: Picture your marketing like a perfectly timed food drop – precise and hot off the grill. We analyze past orders to send custom offers, such as '10% off your fave poke bowl' to loyalists or 'Buy one falafel wrap, get one half-off' for vegan repeaters. This isn't guesswork; it's data-driven, leading to 40% higher open rates and orders that pay back your investment in just 2-3 months, as seen in our client taco trucks.
Boost Productivity with Unified Customer Insights
Boost Productivity with Unified Customer Insights: No more sifting through app silos for feedback on spice levels or wait times. Our AI pulls everything – from Grubhub reviews to repeat buyer patterns for wing nights – into one dashboard. Short punchy result: quicker decisions on menu tweaks like adjusting sauce heat, fewer no-shows for reservations, and a smoother operation that feels like having an extra line cook on marketing duty, cutting decision time by 50%.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, I was spending evenings manually emailing customers about our new al pastor taco specials – it was exhausting and half got lost in spam folders. Now, their system auto-sends personalized promos based on past orders, like discounts on rice bowls for lunch loyalists, and we've seen a 35% uptick in repeat deliveries over three months. Finally, time to innovate on flavors instead of chasing clicks during our peak 7 PM rush."
Maria Gonzalez
Operations Lead, Urban Taco Ghost Kitchen, Los Angeles
"Ghost kitchens like ours live or die by delivery apps, but marketing felt like an afterthought amid constant curry order fluctuations. AIQ built us a custom flow that tracks DoorDash trends for butter chicken spikes and blasts targeted deals like 'free naan with samosas' during 2-5 PM lulls. Saved us about 12 hours a week on admin, and our order volume jumped 28% last quarter. It's like they read our chaotic shift schedules."
Raj Patel
Founder, Spice Route Deliveries, Chicago
"We were buried in social media posts that didn't convert – think generic burger pics during our vegan quinoa bowl promo week. Their automation now pulls customer prefs from past orders and schedules spot-on content, like targeted reels for gluten-free options. ROI hit within two months, with 20% more Grubhub orders from repeat vegetarians. Honest game-changer for our small team juggling brunch and dinner shifts."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this automation handle our variable order volumes in a ghost kitchen?
Great question – ghost kitchens aren't predictable like brick-and-mortar spots. Our custom AI learns your patterns, like slower Tuesdays versus Friday frenzy, and scales campaigns accordingly. For instance, it dials back emails during peaks to avoid overwhelming customers, while ramping up targeted offers during lulls. We've seen ops save 10-15 hours weekly by automating this, with no manual tweaks needed. It's all integrated with your delivery apps, so if Uber Eats slows, it auto-shifts to social boosts. The result? Smoother revenue flow without you babysitting the system. We tailor it during setup to match your exact menu cycles and location demands.
What's the ROI timeline for implementing this in our setup?
You're probably thinking about quick wins amid tight margins. Most ghost kitchen clients see payback in 2-4 months. Take one partner: they automated promo emails and social blasts, cutting manual work from 12 hours to 1 per week, while lifting orders by 25%. Costs drop too – no more $200/month on scattered tools. We focus on quantifiable gains, like tracking how a 'buy one curry, get one half-off' campaign converts via DoorDash data. Upfront, it's a one-time build fee, then low maintenance. We provide projections based on your current volume, ensuring efficiency boosts cover the investment fast.
Can it integrate with our existing delivery platforms like DoorDash?
Absolutely, integration is our bread and butter. We don't just connect; we build two-way APIs that pull real-time data from DoorDash, Uber Eats, or Grubhub into your marketing engine. For example, if a customer orders your signature ramen twice in a month, the system auto-sends a personalized loyalty nudge. No more exporting CSVs or broken Zapier links that fail during rush hour. Our engineers ensure it's robust, handling high-volume spikes without downtime. We've done this for similar kitchens, turning app data into actionable campaigns that feel native to your workflow. Setup takes about 2-3 weeks, with testing to match your pace.
How personalized can the marketing get for our customers?
Let's be honest, generic blasts flop in food service. Our AI goes deep: it analyzes order history, like frequent vegan picks or spice levels, to craft one-to-one messages. Imagine texting 'Loved your last pad thai? Try our new spicy twist at 20% off' to that exact customer. It's not creepy – it's helpful, boosting engagement by 40% in tests. We train it on your data securely, complying with privacy rules for food allergies too. For ghost kitchens, this means higher repeats without extra ad spend. We customize the tone to match your brand, whether casual street food vibe or upscale fusion.
What if we expand to new menus or locations?
Scalability is key for growing ghost ops. Our systems are built modular, so adding a new poke bowl line or second kitchen site means simple reconfiguration – no full rebuilds. The AI adapts by ingesting fresh data, like location-specific delivery trends, to tailor campaigns. One client expanded from one to three virtual brands; we updated in a week, maintaining 15-hour weekly savings while hitting 30% ROI on new promos. You own the code, so no vendor limits. We include optimization sessions quarterly to keep it efficient as you evolve, ensuring it supports your operational efficiency every step.
Is this secure for handling customer order data?
Security's non-negotiable in food service, especially with dietary info. We use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with GDPR/CCPA, building everything on secure, owned infrastructure – not rented clouds prone to breaches. Data stays in your control; our AI processes it without storing sensitive details long-term. For ghost kitchens, this means safe handling of allergy flags in personalized offers. We've audited systems for partners, passing compliance checks effortlessly. Short answer: yes, it's fortified like your best-locked recipe book, with regular updates to stay ahead of threats.
