AWS has introduced a new system for restaurants to handle phone orders using an AI host powered by Amazon Connect. This AI host can greet callers, answer menu questions, locate nearby pickup spots, and confirm orders, all without requiring an app or website. The solution integrates Amazon Connect for telephony, Amazon Lex V2 with Agentic Voice for speech processing, and an Amazon Connect AI agent for conversation orchestration, connecting to restaurant backends via Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. AI
IMPACT This system could streamline restaurant operations and improve customer experience by automating phone order intake.
