DoorDash unveiled an AI ordering agent that operates inside Apple’s Messages app, letting US customers on a waitlist place orders via text commands such as ‘order my usual protein bowl to the office’ using their saved order history and payment details. The agent also suggests recipes from a photo of a user’s refrigerator and supports group orders and dietary preferences. Early testing found discrepancies between prices quoted by the agent and those shown in the DoorDash app, raising possible consumer-protection concerns for European markets where DoorDash owns Deliveroo and Wolt.
