The Food & Delivery Challenges We Solve
We know the specific problems that make food & delivery apps hard. Here is how we approach them.
Real-Time Everything
Order status, driver location, ETA, and restaurant prep time must update in real time — any lag kills user trust.
Driver Matching Algorithm
Assigning the nearest available driver while balancing fairness, earnings, and delivery speed is an operations research problem.
Menu Management
Restaurants need to update availability, prices, and photos instantly — without going offline or calling support.
Payments & Payouts
Multi-party payments — split between platform, restaurant, and driver — with instant driver payouts is complex to get right.
What We Build for Food & Delivery
Real-Time Order Tracking
WebSocket-powered live tracking with driver position updating every 3 seconds, animated route rendering, and live ETA recalculation.
Smart Driver Dispatch
ML-based driver allocation that factors proximity, acceptance rate, current load, and traffic — with manual override for ops teams.
Restaurant Dashboard
Tablet-optimised restaurant panel for order management, menu editing, hours, and real-time analytics — zero training required.
Stripe Connect Payouts
Multi-party payment splits via Stripe Connect with instant or scheduled driver payouts, automatic platform fee deduction, and tax reporting.
Surge & Dynamic Pricing
Demand-based pricing engine that adjusts delivery fees by zone and time — with admin controls and user-facing transparency.
Ratings & Trust System
Two-way ratings, photo proof of delivery, in-app dispute resolution, and automated refund workflows.
Types of Food & Delivery Apps We Build
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you build all three apps — customer, driver, and restaurant?+
Yes. A complete delivery platform requires three separate apps sharing a common backend. We build and maintain all three as a single integrated platform.
How does real-time driver tracking work?+
Drivers run a background location service sending GPS coordinates every 3 seconds. Coordinates flow through a WebSocket server to the customer app, rendering a smooth animated position on the map.
Can you clone Uber Eats or DoorDash?+
We do not do direct clones, but we build full-featured on-demand delivery platforms with all the core functionality — and then help you differentiate on UX, vertical, or geography.
How do you handle driver payouts?+
We use Stripe Connect for multi-party payments. Drivers receive their share automatically after each delivery, either instantly (for an extra fee) or on a weekly schedule.
