Challenges

Developing a feature-rich on-demand food ordering app presented a host of unique challenges:

  • Food Safety Compliance: Unlike traditional restaurants, which are typically subject to regular health inspections, the platform relied on a decentralized model with numerous home kitchens. Ensuring that all home chefs adhered to stringent cleanliness and safety standards through AI-driven inspections was critical for customer trust and regulatory compliance.
  • Secure Deliveries: Courier identity verification was essential to prevent unauthorized personnel from handling deliveries. Integrating facial recognition technology provided a secure and efficient solution, ensuring trust and reliability in the delivery process.
  • Streamlined User Registration: Designing a smooth registration process for chefs, customers, and couriers was vital. This required intuitive onboarding tailored to each user group while accommodating regional regulatory requirements.
  • Scalable Operations: The platform needed to support a multilingual user base, real-time order tracking, and seamless functionality during peak demand. Scalable backend and cloud technologies ensured consistent performance and user experience across regions

AgileTech’s Solutions

Our development team worked meticulously to deliver a state-of-the-art solution for on-demand food delivery app development. 

  • AI Safety Inspections: Kitchen hygiene and equipment were analyzed using AI-powered tools. TensorFlow was deployed for AI-powered image and video analysis, verifying that home kitchens met hygiene standards. This innovative solution ensured compliance with local health regulations and reinforced user trust in the platform. 
  • Secure Courier Authentication: Integrated facial recognition for reliable identity verification. AWS Rekognition enabled secure and reliable courier identity verification through facial recognition technology, eliminating the risk of unauthorized personnel delivering orders.
  • Comprehensive User Interfaces: Chefs, customers, and couriers each received customized features tailored to their needs. Our team employed Flutter for mobile app development, offering a single codebase for both Android and iOS while utilizing React Native for web interfaces. This ensured consistency in user experience and reduced development time.
