TakeOut is a dating-app-inspired restaurant matching app that aims to ease the indecisiveness that comes with being hungry. In just a swipe, users can quickly go through different categories and styles, match with places that fit their choices, and discover new experiences they may not have considered otherwise. TakeOut reduces the stress of choosing where to eat, combats decision fatigue, and encourages users to branch out through personalized recommendations and intuitive user engagement.

What Sets TakeOut Apart?

DoorDash

  • Bombards you with options (decision fatigue)

  • Allows restaurants to promote themselves (limits variety)

  • Focused on food delivery

Open Table

  • Focused on reservations

  • Not many filter options

  • You have to sort through the restaurants yourself (decision fatigue)

  • Restaurants add themselves (limits variety)

TakeOut

  • Shows users one option at a time while they’re swiping to not overwhelm them

  • Many filters for users to find their matches

  • Doesn’t use ad-based recommendations, focuses solely on the user

  • Resturants are taken from a global database rather than entered themselves.
