Drive-thru restaurants often face challenges with order accuracy and speed of service, leading to customer dissatisfaction and lost revenue. Human order-takers can be inconsistent, resulting in errors and longer wait times, especially during peak hours. This can negatively impact the overall customer experience and brand perception.
OpenCity's TORI™ is an AI-powered virtual assistant designed to automate the drive-thru ordering process. TORI™ integrates with existing Point of Sale (POS) and Kitchen Display Systems (KDS) to ensure accurate and efficient order processing. By providing instant and accurate responses, TORI™ reduces wait times and minimizes order errors. The system also offers consistent and relevant upselling suggestions, increasing the average order value and driving revenue growth for the restaurant.
The primary target audience is quick-service restaurants (QSRs) and fast-food chains looking to improve drive-thru efficiency, reduce labor costs, and enhance the customer experience.
