You might enjoy reading about OLO’s Dispatch product.
They are turning the tables on delivery service providers.
I was looking for a recent article that explained everything clearly and concisely, but this was the closest I could get:
Essentially, the restaurant secures the delivery order then puts the actual job of delivering the food up to bid to companies like Uber Eats, DoorDash, Postmates, GrubHub, etc.
The end user pays the delivery fee–same as they would if ordering direct through Uber Eats, et al.
Restaurant pays OLO service fees, but nothing to Uber Eats, et al.
Really interesting restaurant industry-related software solution that is a shining example of that magic Silicon Valley word: disruptive.
