SoundHound AI acquires web-based food ordering platform Allset

SoundHound’s system is utilized by over 10,000 restaurant sites to interpret language in various primary languages, memorize menu details of any eatery, manage orders directly to the point of sale (POS), and address common inquiries from customers.

In a statement about the acquisition deal, Keyvan Mohajer, CEO and co-founder of SoundHound AI, mentioned, “By joining forces with Allset, SoundHound will be able to deliver voice AI solutions to a wider range of restaurants, helping them boost operational efficiency.”

As an illustration, SoundHound has been collaborating with White Castle, a fast-food burger chain based in the US, to introduce voice AI ordering technology at specific White Castle drive-thrus for one year. The aim is to expand this technology to 100 sites by the conclusion of 2024.
