What Clients Say

"Before AIQ Labs, quoting for our catering gigs was chaos – we'd burn half a day figuring surcharges for 50-person boxed lunches. Now, it takes under two minutes with auto-adjustments for add-ons like gluten-free options, and we've snagged three more office contracts this quarter. Saved us about 12 hours a week on top of streamlining our POS integration."

Maria Gonzalez

Operations Manager, FreshBite Catering & Delivery

"Our drivers were swamped fielding pricing queries for spice level customizations mid-route. The AI quote bot now manages it seamlessly, pulling GPS data for accurate ETAs on hot curries. Dropped our quoting errors from 15% to zero in two months, and customers rave about the quick responses – ROI hit after just six weeks with 20% more orders processed."

Raj Patel

Owner, SpiceRoute Indian Delivery Service

"I doubted AI could handle our vegan menu's daily price swings from organic produce, but they customized it for peak-hour fees and eco-friendly packaging upsells. Team productivity soared 40% in three months, and we're capturing orders from rivals by quoting faster for event platters. It's revolutionized how we handle fluctuating ingredient costs."

Common Questions

How does this automation handle variable costs like fuel prices in food delivery?

Fuel and other variables are a big pain in delivery – we know that firsthand. Our AI integrates with live data sources like gas APIs and your routing software to dynamically adjust quotes. For example, if prices spike mid-day, the system recalculates instantly without manual input. We customize it to your fleet's specifics, whether gas or electric vehicles, ensuring margins stay healthy. Clients typically see 25% better accuracy on cost estimates right away. Setup takes about two weeks, and it's all built to your workflow, so no disruption to your operations.

Will this work with our existing POS and delivery apps?

Absolutely, integration is our specialty. We connect seamlessly with popular food service tools like Square, Toast, or DoorDash APIs, pulling menu data and order history directly. No more double-entry errors that slow down your kitchen. For a typical setup, we map your workflows in the first consultation, then build secure, two-way links. One delivery service we worked with went from 30-minute quote delays to under 60 seconds, all while keeping their app ecosystem intact. It's tailored, so if you have custom software, we handle that too.

What's the ROI timeline for implementing quote automation?

You're probably thinking about payback period – fair question. Most food delivery clients break even in 4-6 weeks through labor savings alone. Say you save 15 hours weekly at $25/hour; that's $1,500/month back in your pocket. Plus, faster quotes mean more orders – we've seen 20% uplifts in conversions. We provide a custom ROI projection during discovery, based on your volume. Unlike generic tools, ours scales with you, so as deliveries grow, savings compound without extra costs.

Can the system personalize quotes for different customer types?

Personalization is key in food service, where regulars expect perks. Our AI analyzes customer data to tailor quotes – think loyalty discounts for repeat sushi orders or premium pricing for last-minute catering. It factors in past behavior, like preferred drop-off times, to make quotes feel bespoke. A client in urban pizza delivery used this to boost repeat business by 35%. We train it on your data securely, ensuring compliance with privacy rules, and it's all custom-built to match your brand's voice.

How do we train the AI for our specific menu and routes?

Training is straightforward and hands-on. We start by ingesting your menu files, historical quotes, and route data – no tech wizardry needed from you. Our team fine-tunes the model over 1-2 weeks, testing with real scenarios like rush-hour traffic in downtown areas. You provide feedback loops, like 'tweak for vegan options,' and we iterate. It's like seasoning a recipe: precise to your taste. Post-launch, it learns from usage, getting smarter without ongoing effort from your side.

What if we need support after launch?

Support is baked in – we're partners, not just builders. You get dedicated access to our food service specialists for the first three months, including weekly check-ins to optimize for things like new menu items. Beyond that, it's priority email and chat, with SLAs under 24 hours. One caterer we helped called it 'a safety net for our growth spurts.' No nickel-and-diming; it's all covered in the build to keep your delivery humming smoothly.
