Foreva vs Retell.ai

Restaurant domain expertise vs general-purpose developer platform

Why Generic Voice AI Can't Handle Restaurant Orders

Restaurant-Trained Intelligence

Core restaurant intelligence built-in with constantly improving AI models. Advanced restaurant-trained models that generic platforms simply cannot match.

99%+ Restaurant Accuracy

Understands "extra spicy," "gluten-free," "sauce on side," and hundreds of restaurant-specific conversation patterns.

Generic Platform Accuracy Problem

Generic voice AI platforms lack restaurant domain knowledge. Restaurant ordering requires extremely high accuracy that general platforms struggle to achieve.

Accuracy Gap

Generic AI misunderstands food terms, gets confused by modifiers, and lacks restaurant conversation context.

Restaurant Owner vs Developer: Different Expertise Needed

What Restaurant Owners Know Best

  • Menu Complexity: Which dishes have modifiers, what "on the side" means for each item
  • Customer Preferences: How regulars order, common dietary restrictions, cultural expectations
  • Operational Flow: How orders move from phone to kitchen to customer
  • Business Impact: What actually drives revenue and customer satisfaction

What Developers Know Best

  • API integration, webhooks, and technical architecture
  • Voice AI model training and optimization techniques
  • Custom development and platform flexibility
  • Technical infrastructure and scalability planning

The Gap: Restaurant expertise + Technical expertise = Months of development. Foreva AI bridges this gap by providing restaurant-expert AI that works immediately.
