SAN FRANCISCO -- Tyme Commerce, a new competitor in the workplace refreshment space, has launched a variant of its popular snack program that offers clients first access to the newest snacks on the market and provides a variety of sustainable products made with "clean" ingredients.
The company, which describes itself as "a personalized omni-channel end-to-end food platform that customizes the world around patrons to their likes and preferences with AI-driven solutions," has applied that customization to the task of ordering snacks for a workplace population.
In use, this offers those employees a service that enables them to use a mobile app to provide "like/dislike" feedback on suggested snacks before the order is placed. In practice, this allows automatic selection and ordering of snacks on the basis of expressed employee preference. Not only does the Tyme snack's virtual concierge solicit feedback from each employee about their likes and dislikes, it also aggregates that data and automatically orders the snacks.
Tyme pointed out that, in today's workplace, employees typically display a wide variety of dietary restrictions and food allergies as well as personal preferences and that choosing snacks for the entire office is usually a tedious, thankless task.
With Tyme's newest like/dislike feature, office managers spend less time guessing what employees like to eat or trying to get input person-by-person. By pairing with the platform's automated snack ordering and delivery service, Tyme has virtually removed the entire snack ordering dilemma from management's plate.
"Today's companies are looking for ways to keep current employees happy as well as appeal to qualified job candidates," Tyme observed. "Upgrading the office snack program is a simple and cost-effective solution. Even better, using the like/dislike feature can help to prevent food waste, as fewer snacks will be thrown out."
According to Tyme, the employees stand to benefit the most from this feature. First, they save money by not having to purchase snacks. Second, they have some control of choosing the snacks to be stocked, which is especially appreciated by those who have limited food options due to allergies or dietary restrictions.
In addition to the new office snack program, Tyme's end-to-end artificial intelligence driven food platform provides a complete corporate food ordering program along with an "order-ahead" mobile app and a restaurant marketplace solution.
With Tyme, consumers use personalized menus and an intelligent digital concierge to order from their favorite merchants. Merchants are able to customize orders and use the rich analytics data that they receive to connect better with their customers in order to provide a superior experience.
In addition, Tyme Commerce's first-ever restaurant-to-restaurant marketplace gives foodservice operations a platform for finding specialty items, while providing an expanded sales tool for entrepreneurs serving the restaurant industry.
