DoorDash launches an AI agent that takes orders over text
What happened
On October 1, 2026, TechCrunch reported that DoorDash launched an AI agent that can place orders over text. Users order through Apple Messages by sending prompts like "order my usual"; the agent can also search local restaurants, suggest a cart and send photos of dishes. The report says the feature handles different dietary preferences and quantities for group orders, and is open to a US waitlist. In the same report, DoorDash said it will test delivery drones at some restaurants in Northern California.
