1. Improve Order Accuracy

Mistakes in orders, from wrong items to missing customizations, lead to dissatisfied customers and bad reviews. Ensuring accuracy is critical for maintaining trust and loyalty.

How Curbit Helps:

Curbit’s Dynamic Order Orchestration provides real-time updates to streamline kitchen operations, minimizing the chances of mistakes. By syncing platforms and providing accurate order details to the kitchen, it ensures that every meal is prepared just as the customer ordered.

2. Reduce Delivery Times

Customers want their food fast, and any delay can impact their experience. Long waits, whether due to kitchen backups or driver delays, create frustration.

How Curbit Helps:

With Order Throttling and Prioritization, Curbit ensures that your kitchen operates at optimal efficiency. The system balances order flow during busy periods, prioritizing time-sensitive deliveries and adjusting to real-time kitchen capacity to keep delivery times in check.

3. Manage Peak Delivery Traffic

High demand can overwhelm kitchens and lead to slowdowns that affect both food quality and delivery times. Handling peak delivery periods without disrupting workflow is crucial.

How Curbit Helps:

Curbit’s Flexible Scheduling and real-time data insights allow restaurants to adjust schedules on the fly, ensuring a smoother workflow. During peak hours, the platform automatically paces orders to prevent kitchen bottlenecks, reducing staff stress and improving overall performance.

4. Communicate with Customers in Real-Time

One of the most common complaints in delivery is the lack of communication about order status. Customers expect real-time updates so they know exactly when to expect their meal.

How Curbit Helps:

With Guest Updates, Curbit delivers real-time SMS notifications to customers, letting them know exactly when their food is being prepared, when it’s on its way, and when it’s ready for pickup or delivery. This level of transparency reduces frustration and improves the overall customer experience.
