VOICEplug Drive-Thru AI
Palo Alto, California, United States
What it is
VOICEplug Drive-Thru AI automates restaurant drive-thru ordering with conversational voice technology for quick-service restaurants and multi-location chains. It handles modifiers, combos, special requests, and promotions, then confirms orders verbally and visually before sending them to POS and kitchen systems. Analytics are captured automatically. The proprietary VOICEpod hardware is designed for drive-thru environments and recommended for enterprise-grade deployments. It uses noise filtration and focused voice recognition to reduce background noise and isolate the ordering customer’s voice. Processing can run on premises, at the edge, or in the cloud. The system is designed for multi-lane ordering, peak-hour traffic, complex menus, and chain-wide rollout. The company says it reduces repetitive workload so staff can focus on food quality and speed rather than replacing staff. Priority technical support is available during setup. The product page says orders sync with POS and kitchen systems but does not name specific integrations. Voice recordings may be collected with explicit consent and are typically anonymized or deleted after a reasonable period. Pricing is on request.
