DoorDash warns restaurants over Bites' AI‑native listings
DoorDash emailed Bay Area restaurants after some were listed on pre‑seed startup Bites — which allows orders via ChatGPT and says it has about 300 partner restaurants — warning they may have been added without consent and that inaccurate menus or undisclosed terms could be illegal. The episode illustrates a growing concern that LLM‑based agents could route orders away from apps like DoorDash, threatening commission, ad, and customer‑relationship revenue models.
