# VoiceOrder Solutions > Voice-powered ordering and inventory management for food distributors. Reduce errors, save 20–30 minutes per order, and free your sales team to sell. VoiceOrder Solutions is a voice-powered order management and inventory management platform built for independent food distributors, Direct Store Delivery (DSD) operators, food service software platforms, and the restaurants they serve. It lets restaurant operators place accurate orders hands-free from their kitchen and delivers those orders automatically to their distributor in real time. Founded by Scott Epskamp, who previously co-founded Leapfrog Online, a pioneer in digital marketing.
