Direct Orders. That's It.
We build your site. Get you found on Google, Instagram, ChatGPT - wherever people search for food. We handle the phones. Take the orders. Run the marketing. Bring customers back. Everything lands in your kitchen. You cook. Money in your account same day.
Founded in 2026, we built DirectOrders AI-first so restaurants get reliable automation without legacy constraints.
We've Seen How This Industry Works
Hidden Fees Are Everywhere
“Zero commission” sounds great until you find the 5% platform fee on page 47. On $500K revenue, that's $25,000/year - every year.
“AI-Powered” Usually Isn't
Most restaurant tech slaps an AI label on basic automation. Real AI understands “gluten-free pasta under $20.” Marketing copy doesn't.
Support Disappears After the Sale
Great sales call. Ghost town after you sign. We've heard it a hundred times from restaurant owners who switched to us.
No PR Team. No Fairy Tale.
18 years building software at scale - Not in a dorm room. At companies shipping products used by millions. Now we're building for restaurants.
Working-class roots - We come from families running small businesses. Understaffed. Underfunded. No time for software that needs a manual.
Engineers who answer support - When something breaks on Friday night, we pick up the phone.
Built by operators, for operators.
Our founders have spent over a decade in Silicon Valley shipping high-growth products at scale.
But this one is personal.
We've been selling food since before the internet existed - from local markets to the AI era. We've felt every fee, every margin squeeze, every algorithm change.
DirectOrders is what we wished existed for ourselves.
