Our Tailored Lead Scoring Solution for Food Delivery
With over 150 custom AI deployments in food service, we've helped delivery ops like yours turn chaotic lead flows into efficient growth engines.
Why Choose Us
Let's be honest—off-the-shelf lead scoring tools treat every business like a cookie-cutter operation, ignoring the frenzy of food delivery where timing is everything. You're probably thinking, 'My leads come from apps, social buzz, and restaurant outreach—how can generic software handle that?' Here's the thing: it can't. At AIQ Labs, we build your lead scoring system from the ground up, custom-coded to analyze delivery-specific signals like order history, geolocation pings, and peak-time inquiries. No subscriptions, no brittle integrations—just a unified AI that fits your workflow like a perfectly timed hot meal delivery. We integrate it seamlessly with your CRM and routing software, scoring leads in real-time so your team focuses on what converts: those high-intent partners ready to flood your platform with orders.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency in Your Delivery Pipeline
Boost Conversion Rates by 30%
Boost Conversion Rates by 30%: Our custom scoring identifies hot leads—like busy diners with consistent 50+ lunch orders weekly—letting you prioritize outreach to high-volume spots. No more cold calls to understaffed cafes; instead, engage primed prospects like expanding food trucks, turning inquiries into signed delivery contracts faster than a 15-minute pizza promise, often within 48 hours.
Reduce Follow-Up Time by 50%
Reduce Follow-Up Time by 50%: Picture this: during a hectic 6-9 PM dinner shift, your team gets auto-scored alerts only for high-potential leads, like restaurants querying bulk ingredient deliveries. We build in filters for behaviors such as repeated app searches for gluten-free menus and geofenced location data near your core zones, slashing hours spent sifting through low-volume takeout noise and letting ops focus on optimizing driver routes for 20% more efficient scaling.
Scale Partnerships Without the Chaos
Scale Partnerships Without the Chaos: Food delivery thrives on dense networks of partners, but unscored leads from pop-up eateries clog your pipeline. Our system forecasts partner value based on 30-day order volume trends and peak-hour capacity, helping you expand into underserved zones with confidence—think onboarding 20% more quick-service restaurants like taco stands without overwhelming your dispatch team during weekend surges.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, our team was drowning in leads from every food truck app download and social media buzz, but half never converted to steady partners. Their custom scoring cut our chase time in half—we went from 50 cold outreach emails a day to focusing on just 15 high-scorers with proven lunch rush volumes, landing three new ghost kitchen chains in only two months. Our on-demand deliveries are up 25% now, especially in urban zones."
Maria Gonzalez
Operations Lead, QuickBite Deliveries
"I was skeptical about AI in our fast-paced delivery world, but this system scores leads based on real app data like repeat searches for vegan entrees and order history. It flagged a hidden gem partner—a chain of plant-based cafes—we almost missed, leading to a 40% boost in vegan orders last quarter alone. No more guessing which inquiries will drive real catering volume."
Raj Patel
Growth Manager, UrbanEats Network
"During our holiday surge last December, unscored leads meant we missed out on prime catering gigs for office parties. AIQ built a custom scorer that prioritized high-volume inquiries for bulk holiday platters, integrating seamlessly with our driver routing app. We closed 12 big events in that month alone, saving 20 hours a week on manual lead reviews—total game-changer for our lean team handling peak-season rushes."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does lead scoring differ for food delivery compared to other industries?
In food delivery, timing and location are king—unlike generic sales, our custom system scores leads by factors like app open rates during lunch hours or proximity to your zones. We build it to flag urgent catering requests or high-volume restaurant inquiries, integrating with your routing tools. This means your team prioritizes leads that can boost same-day orders, not just vague interest. We've seen clients cut response times from hours to minutes, directly lifting delivery volumes by 20-30%. It's all tailored—no one-size-fits-all here.
What data sources does your lead scoring use for my delivery business?
We pull from your specifics: CRM entries, app analytics, order histories, and even geodata from delivery apps. For instance, a lead searching for 'late-night pizza delivery' in your zone gets a higher score than a casual browser. No external black boxes—we map your data securely, training the AI on patterns like repeat inquiries from event planners. This creates a 'single source of truth' for leads, reducing errors in partner outreach. Clients report 40% fewer false positives, letting sales focus on what fills trucks.
How long does it take to implement a custom lead scoring system?
Typically 4-6 weeks for a full build, depending on your data complexity. We start with a quick audit of your lead flow—say, how inquiries come from social media or partner portals—then prototype in week two. Testing happens in your live environment, like scoring during a weekend rush, to ensure it fits. Unlike dragged-out agency projects, our engineer-led approach delivers a working system fast, with training included. One delivery client went live in 5 weeks and saw immediate prioritization wins.
Can this integrate with our existing delivery management software?
Absolutely—we specialize in deep, two-way integrations with tools like Route4Me or your custom POS. The scoring feeds directly into your dashboard, auto-tagging high-potential leads for route planning. For example, a scored restaurant lead triggers a partnership alert, syncing with order forecasts. No brittle APIs that break during high traffic; we build robust connections that handle surges. This unity eliminates the 'subscription chaos' of disconnected apps, saving your ops team hours weekly.
What if our lead volume fluctuates with seasons?
Our systems are designed for that variability—food delivery sees holiday spikes and slow winters, so we make the AI adaptive. It learns from your data, adjusting scores for seasonal behaviors like increased catering leads in December. You get scalable performance, from 200 daily inquiries to 2,000, without extra costs. We include monitoring to tweak models quarterly, ensuring accuracy. A client in urban delivery used this to capture 15% more off-season partners, stabilizing revenue year-round.
Is the lead scoring system secure for handling customer data?
Security is non-negotiable in food service, where personal order details matter. We use enterprise-grade encryption and comply with standards like GDPR for any customer-linked leads. Your data stays in-house—no cloud dependencies unless you choose. We audit for vulnerabilities during build, ensuring scored insights (like high-intent zip codes) don't expose sensitive info. Clients in delivery praise this, noting zero breaches while gaining actionable intel that boosts customer experience without risks.
