Running a food delivery business from WhatsApp
Order-to-delivery automation for a home tiffin service — replacing a manual spreadsheet-and-phone-calls routine with a connected system.
The business problem
A small food delivery operation was tracking orders, payments, and daily delivery routes by hand across WhatsApp chats, phone calls, and a spreadsheet. Mistakes were easy and invisible until a customer complained.
The system response
Customers order over WhatsApp, payment is collected automatically through Razorpay, and the day's deliveries are scheduled without anyone re-typing an order twice. If a step fails, the owner is alerted immediately instead of finding out the next day.
