Foodosti is a food delivery startup in Kentucky that wanted to give restaurants and customers an inexpensive and smarter alternative to expensive apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats.
We helped turn their idea into a real app with a driver bidding system, where riders set their own delivery prices. The app launched in Lexington, Kentucky, and quickly became a hit with both customers and delivery drivers.

Development, Design, Testing, and Deployment
High delivery fees were making food expensive for both customers and restaurants in Kentucky, United States. Our client wanted to build a food delivery app that was affordable, fair, and easy to use. The goal was to give restaurants a cost-effective way to reach customers while empowering delivery riders to earn more and stay motivated.
The client saw that delivery fees from apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats were too high for restaurants and customers in Kentucky, United States. They wanted a more affordable solution that still worked for delivery drivers.
We built a custom driver bidding system, allowing riders to set their own delivery prices. This empowered drivers while keeping costs low for restaurants and customers, creating a fairer and more flexible delivery model.
Traditional delivery apps often reward customers, not drivers, which can lead to low engagement among riders. The Foodosti team wanted drivers to be motivated to participate actively in deliveries.
We implemented a promotion and badge system for riders, giving them incentives and recognition for successful deliveries. This encouraged drivers to stay active, make competitive bids, and provide reliable service.
The app needed to launch in Lexington, Kentucky, and prove itself quickly against major competitors. There needed to be coordination of all features, like the bidding system, payments, and real-time tracking on a tight timeline.
Our team at Linkitsoft polished the concept, refined the app’s features, and handled end-to-end development:
Most food delivery platforms take high commissions, which makes it tough for home chefs to earn fairly. Foodosti wanted to give small cooks a friendly space to sell their food and still make a good income.
We built a low-commission sign-up system where home chefs can create accounts, add menus, and start selling right away. This helped local cooks reach more customers while keeping prices fair for buyers.
As a result, Foodosti launched successfully in Lexington. The app quickly gained traction with both restaurants and drivers, and is now expanding to Corbin, Kentucky, with the same success.

Foodosti’s launch in Lexington proved that food delivery doesn’t have to come with high costs. Drivers loved having the freedom to set their own prices, while restaurants finally had an affordable way to reach more customers. Within a short time, the app built a loyal base of users who appreciated its fairness and simplicity. What started as an idea to challenge big delivery apps quickly turned into a growing community, now expanding to Corbin and London, Kentucky.
