How did Swiggy make this feature?
@swiggy PMs how are you able to segregate the dishes as 'Desk Friendly' in this feature?
You could have either
- Given an option to the restaurants to classify. However, this rather makes a false incentive to label for more visibility.
- Give restaurants to classify a limited number of dishes. This still adds to false positives in the list.
- Crowdsourcing. I haven't seen anything as such. But it sounds tedious.
- Some form of ML segregation? But an AI feeds in the images sometimes or so I've heard- which leads to a nasty AI loop.
Curious to know.
Probably historical order data by volume of restaurant - dish combinations are delivered to office addresses during lunch times.
Could be. Although I'd not expect a 100% correlation. I've seen people get non desk friendly food as well. It'd be great to know what they do for the highest level optimisation
True I feel even their 'Guiltfree' feature is a bit too random
I barely find actually healthy stuff there The labeling is quite arbitrary
I think these are all valid points. Let's Boycott Swiggy and exclusively use Zomato
My guess is option 1.
