    🧩 Section 1: What Is Qordinate & How Does WhatsApp Food Ordering Work?

    Qordinate is your omni-channel AI assistant that lives where you already chat. Think of it as a smart coordinator that understands what you need and acts on it—right from WhatsApp, Telegram, or Slack.

    Here's the magic: Instead of opening a food delivery app, scrolling through endless options, and fighting with clunky interfaces, you just message Qordinate on WhatsApp. You can:

    • Ask for "dinner options near me"
    • Request "vegetarian meals under ₹200"
    • Order your favorite Surprise Bag from Fozo

    Qordinate understands natural conversation, checks available options, confirms your order, and tracks delivery—all through simple chat. No accounts to create, no passwords to remember, no apps to install.

    Simple example:

    You: "Hey, what's for dinner around Indiranagar?"
    Qordinate: "Here are 3 options: 1) Fozo - Mediterranean Bowl @ ₹150 (70% off), 2) ..."

    It feels like texting a friend who knows all the best food deals in town.


    🚀 Section 2: Why Food Rescue Matters in 2025

    Bangalore generates over 4,000 tonnes of food waste daily. A significant portion comes from restaurants and eateries with surplus food that can't be sold by closing time. This isn't stale or unsellable food—it's perfectly good meals that just didn't find a buyer.

    The environmental cost? Food waste in India contributes nearly 50% of methane emissions from landfills. Every kilogram of wasted food represents 0.7kg of CO2e released into the atmosphere.

    Why now? Consumers are increasingly conscious of both their wallets and their footprint. The combination of AI convenience (through Qordinate) and food rescue (through Fozo) creates a win-win:

    • You save 40-70% on quality meals
    • You reduce food waste and carbon emissions
    • You support local businesses by helping them recover costs

    This isn't just a trend—it's a movement. And Bangalore is leading the charge.
