Amid the increasing number of people requesting food service at restaurants due to the influence of the new coronavirus, Chinese dropper (Didi), which develops a taxi dispatching application, has been providing a food delivery service utilizing AI in Osaka city in earnest. Announced that it started.

Chinese drop-out app giant, Drop Drop, has held a press conference and announced that it will start a delivery service to deliver food to customers on behalf of restaurants.

With the smartphone app, when you order food from a partner restaurant, the delivery staff will deliver it to your home or work by bicycle.

In 6 wards such as Chuo Ward and Tennoji Ward of Osaka City, more than 2500 affiliated stores are targeted, and an average delivery charge of around JPY 350 will be added.

The feature is that AI analyzes big data and predicts the congestion situation of the road, and guides the delivery staff to deliver the food to the customers in the shortest time.

In the future, we will predict the order situation that will enter the restaurant in 5 minutes and aim to dispatch a delivery staff near the crowded store.

In this area, Uber Eats from the United States has been providing services since 2016, and Osaka's head office, Demaekan, offers similar services in various regions.

Vice President Hayashi of Diddy Mobility Japan said, "I would like to strive to provide services by making use of the ability to attract customers that I have cultivated with taxi dispatch applications."

Delivery service rival

As a food delivery service, Uber Eats from the United States started service in Tokyo in 2016.

In addition, the Demaekan building, which has its head office in Osaka, has embarked on a business since 2017 and is expanding its services in various regions.

Of these, in the Demaekan building, restaurants of various genres are posted on the smartphone application, and customers can order their favorite dishes and request delivery.

In March, we formed a business tie-up with LINE to expand the number of customers.

The Demaekan originally started 20 years ago from a service that introduced restaurants on the web, such as sushi and pizza.

Our strength is our tie-ups with restaurants nationwide.

In addition, the delivery staff actively employs local people, so they are familiar with driving directions, and the company claims that the speed of delivery is at a level that satisfies customers.

Shiori Komiya of the Demaekan said, “I feel that the delivery service is getting excited due to Didy's entry in Osaka. We want to provide services that our customers can rely on.”

The strength of the drops is AI

Dropship, a major vehicle dispatch service headquartered in China, landed in Osaka in September 2018 in Japan and started the service.

The feature is that the taxi and passengers are efficiently connected by analyzing big data using AI.

Currently, we are providing services in 25 prefectures in Japan.

This time, we will apply the know-how cultivated in the dispatch service to the food delivery service.

The feature is that AI analyzes big data and predicts the congestion situation of the road, and guides the delivery staff to deliver the food to the customer in the shortest time.

In the future, we will predict the order situation that will enter the restaurant in 5 minutes and aim to dispatch a delivery staff near the crowded store.

Also, when an order is received from a customer living in the same condominium or nearby, one deliveryman automatically receives the food at multiple restaurants and AI can automatically deliver it to up to four people at one time. I want to be able to select and specify the route.

First of all, we will start the service in Osaka city, but if we are ready, we would like to expand the service to Tokyo, Kyoto, Kobe, Fukuoka, etc.
