Their AI-powered voice platform supports drive-thru, mobile ordering, and in-restaurant operations, redefining voice technology from a simple feature to a comprehensive, full-stack solution.

“Vox AI is pushing voice technology far beyond generic Natural Language Processing. We’re not just improving voice technology. We’re building a new industry standard for how guests interact with fast-food chains and QSR brands they love and how restaurant staff run them,” said Maurice Kroon, co-founder and CEO of Vox AI. “Our goal is to make voice the de facto interface for every QSR location without the need to upgrade their current hardware.”

Unlike general voice assistants, Vox AI’s platform is designed specifically for the fast-paced, noisy environments of QSRs. It operates around the clock, supporting over 90 languages and dialects.

“Vox AI delivers something the QSR space has never had before: autonomous, intelligent, real-time voice interaction at a global scale. It’s not a feature, it’s a platform shift,” said Dominic Wilhelm, Partner at Headline.

“We are thrilled to partner with the Vox AI team to power the future of drive-thru and QSR ordering to not only improve companies’ bottom lines, but also reduce employee turnover and improve customer satisfaction.”
