Business Agents · Order-Taking Agents

Never miss another order.

For restaurants, takeaways and hotel food & beverage, DVAI agents answer every ordering call — even at the height of the dinner rush — capture the order accurately into the POS, surface declared allergen information, route payment securely, consolidate aggregator orders, and take the routine supplier reordering and chasing off stretched staff. The unanswered-phone problem alone is estimated to cost the US restaurant industry around $20 billion a year. Payment and allergen handling operate under explicit safety boundaries.

Order-Taking Agents — questions we’re often asked

No — by design the agent never captures, reads back, stores or processes raw card data. It takes the order and routes payment to your existing PCI-DSS-compliant provider, keeping card details out of the conversation path. Responsibility for payment security and PCI-DSS compliance stays with the venue and its provider.

It surfaces the venue’s own declared allergen and ingredient information at the points distance-selling rules require. It reads out what the business has declared — it does not judge whether a dish is safe for an individual, give dietary or medical advice, or replace the venue’s allergen controls. Legal responsibility for allergen accuracy stays with the food business.

It is designed to pass orders straight into your POS and to consolidate ordering across phone, own-site and connected aggregators, reducing the number of separate devices staff juggle. The exact integrations depend on your setup.

The agent is built to absorb peak-time overflow — answering the calls staff cannot reach when it is busiest — and to escalate anything it cannot handle to a person. The aim is that no order is lost to a busy line.

Yes — within limits you set. For supplier reordering the agent acts on your own stock data and pre-set rules; it is not an inventory-management system, and it does not appoint new suppliers, accept price changes or place unusual orders without human approval.

With a confidential discussion and a scoped pilot — typically starting with order capture and overflow — measured on the venue’s own operation.
