Presto Announces Integration with Toast to Expand Voice AI for Drive-Thru Automation

SAN MATEO, Calif. & BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Presto Phoenix, Inc. (“Presto”), a leader in enterprise-grade Voice AI for quick-service restaurants (QSRs), today announced that it has joined the Toast Partner Ecosystem. This integration will enable QSR franchise groups that modernize their point-of-sale infrastructure with Toast to seamlessly adopt Presto Voice AI, automating drive-thru order-taking while improving speed, accuracy, and operational efficiency.

Toast is a global technology platform built for restaurant and retail businesses. It works with integration partners in its Toast Partner Ecosystem, which comprises more than 200 partners, who deliver specialized technology and services to help restaurant operators increase sales, engage guests, and keep employees happy.

“We’re pleased to welcome Presto to the Toast Partner Ecosystem,” said Justin Graham, VP and General Manager of Enterprise Products at Toast. “A strong technology ecosystem is critical to enterprise operational efficiency, and we’re committed to integration partners who can help customers build the tech stacks they need. Through our integration with Presto, QSR operators can orchestrate drive-thru ordering at scale, extending voice AI to more restaurants with greater speed and accuracy.”

Through Presto’s integration with Toast, shared customers can connect Presto Voice directly into their Toast POS environment, allowing orders captured through AI-powered voice automation to flow directly into the kitchen. This can help reduce order errors, enhance upsell consistency, and free staff to focus on hospitality and throughput.

The integration underscores Presto’s continued leadership in Voice AI for drive-thrus, expanding its reach across a broader range of restaurant operators seeking to modernize both front-of-house and back-of-house operations. As a Toast integration partner, Presto can extend its Voice AI capabilities to mid-market and emerging multi-location quick-service restaurant (QSR) brands using Toast’s technology.

“Restaurants are increasingly looking for scalable, AI-driven solutions to improve operations and guest experience,” said Krishna Gupta, Co-Founder and CEO of Presto. “By integrating with Toast, we are unlocking access to a growing segment of innovative QSR brands that are investing in modern POS systems and are ready to automate their drive-thrus with Voice AI.”
