matry.techAI agents for food delivery - try them right now
Short answer: AI agents take food-delivery orders by voice or chat (items, modifiers, upsells, address), answer "where is my order" calls with live status, assign riders by real dispatch math, and predict prep times so delivery promises hold. Below: a working voice-ordering agent you can talk to, a dispatch optimizer you can watch, and a prep-time predictor - all running in this page.
1. The voice-ordering agent
Type the way a customer would speak - messy sentences, modifiers, several items at once. The agent parses it, upsells, totals, and takes the address. Try: "two paneer tikka pizzas, one without onion, and a coke".

2. Dispatch optimization, visualized
Orders drop in around the kitchen. The agent scores every idle rider - distance, direction, batch - and assigns in seconds. Watch it work, or drop an order yourself.
3. Prep-time prediction
A fixed "30 minutes" promise breaks the moment the kitchen gets busy. The predictor reads order size, queue depth and peak load - the same inputs the production model uses.
What the production version connects to
The demos above run in your browser. In production, the same agents wire into the systems you already run:
- Your ordering stack and POS - the ordering agent writes real orders, applies your menu, prices, taxes and offers, and never invents an item.
- Your rider app and maps - the dispatch agent sees live rider positions and traffic in real time.
- Your phone line and WhatsApp - customers call or message the same numbers they use today; the agent picks up in under a second, in their language.
- Guardrails and human handoff - hard limits on refunds and credits, and any conversation the agent cannot resolve goes to your team with the full context attached.
Voice-agent running cost is priced per minute of conversation - roughly $0.02 to $0.08 on current frontier models. Run your call volume through our Voice AI Cost Calculator for an exact monthly number.
Straight answers
What can an AI agent do for a food delivery business?
Four jobs drive most of the value: taking orders by voice or chat with modifiers and upsells, answering "where is my order" calls with live status, optimizing dispatch with nearest-rider and batching math, and predicting prep times so promises hold.
How does a voice-ordering agent handle real customer speech?
It parses messy sentences - "two paneer tikka pizzas, one without onion, and a coke" - into structured items with quantities and modifiers, confirms with a total, upsells, and captures the address. Anything unresolvable goes to a human with the full conversation.
What does dispatch optimization actually change?
The agent scores every idle rider against every open order - distance, direction, current batch, promised time - and assigns in seconds. Batching two nearby drops onto one rider is where most of the cost saving comes from.
Can an AI agent predict kitchen prep time?
Yes - order size, item types, current queue and time of day produce an estimate that reflects the kitchen's real state instead of a fixed promise.
How much does it cost to build AI agents for food delivery?
Running cost is per-minute model pricing: $0.02-$0.08 per minute on current frontier models, so 100 four-minute calls a day costs $276-$960 per month. Build cost depends on scope and integrations - we scope it on a free 30-minute call.
