Are you building out custom backend or are you integrating with other APIs? I hate lines, love the idea

@elonrubin We are open to integrate with other APIs if there is a need.

@viviancromwell obviously you and your team have spearheaded this product. I just say this because I think the principle value proposition is operations efficiency, and if you don't have to build out custom tech for menus, it may allow you to focus more on your core values ✌

@vivianCromwell Love it , very clean UI, do we have to pay the extra to skip the line ? if yes who fix the price ? and what's your business model for the moment B2B or B2C ?

@otymix expediting service does require additional work on the merchant side, so there is a fee. We discussed with merchants and came up with a simple fee to try. Chop is B2C business model, but we have been getting inquiries from brands and stores. It is early days, our ultimate goal is to provide a modern and affordable mobile commerce solution to local businesses. (a side note: we choose React Native framework because it makes possible to share a lot of code while achieving great UI and animation on mobile, also easy to customize for brands. so it is a business decision as well what tech stack to use)

Congrats on the launch ! How do you connect the merchants ? Have you developed a special app for them ? Do you provide them a device ?

My friend and fellow Xoogler built an app so that you can order ahead — and skip the line — at any local merchant. As she puts it, Customers can ... have the Starbucks experience at any shop, and [merchants avoid] astronomical upfront costs. The app is really well designed — and more technical Product Hunt readers will appreciate the deep technology insights they've shared about how they built Chop!

Re:amaze

Chop looks pretty great. Every time I use a food-related app, I feel like I'd have to be loyal customer already to order/pre-order at a local favorite. However, my favorite restaurants, who used to say hi and notice me, started doing it less frequently. I sometimes go in there physically to get food just so I can maintain a good relationship with the owners. It would be great if Chop can also create a great experience for local restaurant owners to keep up the relationship with me. It is a two-way street after all. Congrats! @viviancromwell @sauldevitt

@davidsfeng @sauldevitt yes. Actually store owners can see who is making the order via Chop. The data is made available to them, we are keeping it pretty open ended at the moment how store owners want to engage with their regular customers. Your feedback is appreciated. Our early data does indicate Chop is for regular customers.
