Restaurant Order & Delivery System for WhatsApp with GPT-4o and Supabase

How it works This workflow creates a complete AI-powered restaurant ordering system through WhatsApp. It receives customer messages, processes multimedia content (text, voice, images, PDFs, location), uses GPT-4 to understand customer intent and manage conversations, handles the complete ordering flow from menu selection to payment verification, and sends formatted orders to restaurant staff. The system maintains conversation memory, verifies payment receipts using OCR, and provides automated responses in multiple languages.

Who's it for Restaurant owners, food delivery services, and hospitality businesses looking to automate customer service and order management through WhatsApp without hiring additional staff.
