Limited 30-day campaign: 3 months free. No setup fee. No contract.
Stop paying marketplace commissions.
90 days free to prove it works.
Branded ordering site live in a week. Keep your customers, keep your margin, no contract.
Restaurants moving 200 orders/mo direct save ~$1,000/month.
The problem
The apps trained your customers to order somewhere else.
Your regulars may already know your restaurant. They may already want your food.
But when they are hungry, many still open DoorDash, Uber Eats, or Grubhub out of habit.
That means your restaurant can lose margin on customers who were already yours.
Talos helps you start moving those repeat orders back to your own ordering site.
1
You lose margin on repeat customers
Marketplace fees hurt most when the customer already knew your restaurant and was going to order anyway.
2
The app owns the ordering habit
Even loyal customers get trained to open a third-party app first.
3
You miss the customer relationship
When the order goes through the marketplace, the customer data and reorder path stay with the app.
Direct ordering only works when customers are reminded again and again where to order next time.
Signals, not slogans.
No stock photos, no invented testimonials. Three concrete ways to verify Talos is real and working.

Marketplace cost calculator
See what third-party ordering may be costing you.
Marketplace delivery can take a large cut from every order. Talos gives restaurants a lower-cost way to keep delivery inside their own ordering system.
My restaurant mostly does
Example: many restaurants charge $3.99–$4.99 per delivery. Anything you pass to the customer offsets the $7.49 Talos delivery cost — your restaurant only absorbs the rest.
Marketplace cost
$1,456/mo
Estimated third-party app cost based on your delivery volume.
Your net Talos delivery cost
$419/mo
$7.49 per delivery under 5 miles, minus the $4.00 you pass to the customer.
Estimated savings with Talos
$1,037/mo
The difference when delivery orders move from marketplace apps to your own Talos ordering site.
Savings depend on how many customers shift from marketplace ordering to direct ordering during the 90-day trial.
Marketplace rates: 30% blended on delivery (restaurant commission plus customer-side service and delivery fees the platform keeps), 7% on pickup (midpoint of DoorDash and Uber Eats pickup rates). Based on published 2026 merchant pricing.
Talos delivery: flat $7.49 per delivery under 5 miles ($6.49 DoorDash Drive / Uber Direct driver cost + $1 Talos platform fee). Your restaurant decides how much of that to pass to the customer; the slider above reflects a common $4 passthrough as an example. Pickup orders on Talos have no dispatch cost.
Why 90 days free
Direct ordering is not a switch you flip. It is a habit you build.
Customers do not stop using DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub just because your direct ordering site exists.
They need to see it. Try it. Be reminded. Then use it again.
That is why Talos gives you 90 days free — enough time to launch your ordering site, promote it, and see whether repeat customers start moving direct.

How Talos works
Your own ordering system, without rebuilding your restaurant.
Talos gives you a direct ordering flow that fits into how your restaurant already operates.
Customers order from your branded site. Your team accepts orders on the tablet. You keep the customer relationship.
- 01
We build your branded ordering site
Your menu, logo, hours, photos, and ordering flow live on your own domain.
- 02
Customers order directly from you
Pickup and delivery orders come through your ordering site instead of sending repeat customers back to the apps.
- 03
Your team manages orders from the tablet
Orders come into a dedicated tablet, so your staff can accept and manage them without changing the whole operation.
The customer gets a simple ordering experience. Your restaurant gets control back.
What your restaurant gets.
One ordering system for your restaurant: branded site, order management, customer data, and reporting. No bundle of add-ons. No separate tablet plan.
Your branded ordering site
Customers order from your restaurant's site, not a marketplace page.
- Custom domain (order.yourrestaurant.com)
- Your logo, colors, photos, menu
- Works on any phone, no app download required
Multi-location support
Run multiple locations from one system without separate tools for each store.
- Per-location revenue, orders, and average ticket
- Compare any two (or all) locations on one screen
- Menu, hours, and delivery rules overridable per location
Customer insights you own
Every direct order helps build your own customer list, order history, and repeat-order opportunities.
- Lifetime value, avg order, order history
- Favorite items and modifier preferences (what they add, what they skip)
- Loyalty tier, points, and full activity timeline
Every feature is included from day one of your 90-day trial.
Why direct ordering is worth building
Every direct order gives you more control.
Marketplace orders can cost you margin, customer data, and repeat-order control. Talos helps you start moving those orders back to your own restaurant over time.
Own the customer relationship
Names, contact info, order history, favorites, and repeat-order behavior stay with your restaurant instead of the marketplace.
Less margin lost to marketplaces
Pickup orders through Talos have no marketplace commission. Delivery can stay inside your ordering experience instead of sending customers back to the apps.
Customers need reminders to order direct
Many customers will order direct when they know the option exists. The 90-day trial gives you time to make that habit stick.
Delivery cost
Lower-cost delivery, without sending customers back to the apps.
Talos lets customers place delivery orders through your restaurant’s own ordering site.
Instead of paying marketplace commissions, delivery is routed at driver cost, with a simple Talos fee added on top.
For deliveries under 5 miles, that starts at:
$6.49
Driver cost
+
$1.00
Talos fee
=
$7.49
Total, under 5 miles
That means your restaurant can offer delivery while keeping the customer inside your own ordering experience.
Marketplace delivery
Commission-based, app-owned customer
Third-party apps can take a large cut of the order and keep the customer relationship inside their platform.
Talos delivery
Driver cost plus Talos fee
Customers order from your branded site, and delivery is routed at driver cost plus the Talos fee.
Your customer stays yours
The order, customer data, and reorder path stay connected to your restaurant.
The goal is not to replace every marketplace order overnight. The goal is to start moving repeat customers to a lower-cost direct ordering flow.

Setup / go live
Go live in about a week.
Talos is built so restaurants can start direct ordering without rebuilding their whole operation.
We set up your branded ordering site, load your menu, connect the tablet, and get your team ready to accept orders.
Send us your menu
We collect your menu, logo, hours, photos, and ordering details.
We build your ordering site
Your branded ordering page is created on your domain with pickup, delivery, modifiers, and checkout.
You start taking direct orders
Your team receives orders on the tablet and customers can start ordering directly from your restaurant.
The setup is simple. The 90 days are for customer adoption, not complicated onboarding.
Most restaurants go live in about a week after setup details are collected. Timeline can vary by location — tablet shipping distance from our HQ may shift it by a few days.
The honest answers.
Straight answers to the questions restaurant owners ask before trying Talos.
What if I don’t commit after the trial?
You walk away. You keep the tablet.
What if I don’t commit after the trial?
You walk away. You keep the tablet.
No clawback, no cancellation fee, no retention call. You keep the $220 tablet you already paid for, plus 90 days of real ordering data on your restaurant that DoorDash would never have given you.
When does billing actually start?
Day 91, and only if you pick a plan.
When does billing actually start?
Day 91, and only if you pick a plan.
Days 1 through 90 are fully free, all features included. On day 91 you choose Flex (month-to-month, $99/mo) or Partner (12-month agreement at the campaign rate of $49/mo — 50% off the standard $99/mo). Your $220 tablet deposit is credited back as a lump sum to that first invoice. On Partner, the deposit covers about four more months before you pay a subscription bill.
Will my customers actually use my ordering site?
Not overnight. That is why the trial is 90 days.

Not overnight. That is why the trial is 90 days.
Customers are used to opening DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub. Direct ordering works when they are reminded consistently and given enough time to build a new habit.
During your trial, Talos helps you launch the ordering site, place the right links, and give customers a clear reason to order direct.
The goal is not to replace every marketplace order in week one. The goal is to see whether repeat customers start shifting direct over 90 days.
Why is the trial 90 days?
Because customer habit matters, not just software setup.
Why is the trial 90 days?
Because customer habit matters, not just software setup.
Because direct ordering depends on customer behavior, not just software setup.
Your restaurant can go live quickly, but customers need time to notice the new ordering option, try it, and remember to use it again. A short trial would test the software. A 90-day trial gives you time to test whether customers start changing their ordering habit.
Do I need new hardware?
Just the tablet. Works with your printer.
Do I need new hardware?
Just the tablet. Works with your printer.
The tablet connects to most common thermal printers, so if you already have one, we use it. If you don't have a printer we can source one at cost, but that part isn't included or credited. Tablet is a $220 deposit, credited back to your subscription if you stay. Yours to keep either way.
POS integration?
If you can run a DoorDash tablet, you can run Talos.
POS integration?
If you can run a DoorDash tablet, you can run Talos.
You’re already running a DoorDash tablet. Probably an Uber Eats one. Maybe Grubhub. The Talos tablet sits in the same spot in your kitchen, except this one feeds your customer list, takes zero commission on pickup, and prints straight to your existing thermal printer. No complex IT setup, no six-month POS integration project, no waiting on API approvals from Toast or Square. Tell us what POS you’re running and we’ll reach out on your behalf to request an integration, but we don’t need them to go live. Most restaurants are running Talos a week after saying yes.
Do I have to switch payment processors?
No. You don’t need to switch, just add one for online orders.
Do I have to switch payment processors?
No. You don’t need to switch, just add one for online orders.
No, you don’t switch anything. You add a new merchant account with AMP Payment Systems for your online checkout — that’s the whole point. Your in-store POS processing stays exactly as it is today. The AMP setup is a form we handle during onboarding, not a migration.
Driver network?
DoorDash Drive and Uber Direct, at driver cost.
Driver network?
DoorDash Drive and Uber Direct, at driver cost.
You set the delivery fee your customer pays. Driver cost comes from DoorDash Drive or Uber Direct (under 5 miles is $6.49 flat). You can also run your own drivers, or mix per location.
Can I keep my existing domain?
Yes. Keep yours, or use a subdomain.
Can I keep my existing domain?
Yes. Keep yours, or use a subdomain.
Two options. Point a subdomain like order.yourrestaurant.com at Talos and keep your current website exactly as it is. Or move your full domain to Talos and we rebuild the ordering site underneath. Either works, and either way the domain stays registered in your name.
Timeline to go live?
Most restaurants are live within a week.

Send us your menu in any format (CSV, PDF, a link to your current site). We build the ordering site, set up delivery, configure payment processing, and hand you a tablet. You approve, we go live. During the trial we handle menu tweaks and any early adjustments at no charge.
What about my customer data if I leave?
You keep platform access. Only the ordering site goes offline.
What about my customer data if I leave?
You keep platform access. Only the ordering site goes offline.
If you stop the subscription, you don’t get locked out. Your dashboard, customer list, order history, favorites, and loyalty data stay accessible. The only thing that goes offline is the public ordering page your customers used to check out on. Your records are still yours. Export a CSV any time. We never remarket to your guests.
