Unlock Delivery

Gen Z requires convenient access to food. CARI brings delivery inside the campus dining ecosystem, so restaurants can reach students in residence halls, libraries, and shared spaces, using the meal plan dollars students already have.

When food is accessible on students’ terms, meal plans get used fully and students stay engaged with campus dining instead of defaulting to off-campus apps.

Value Add to your Restaurants

Meal Plan Integration

CARI integrates directly with a university’s existing meal plan and dining dollar infrastructure, allowing students to use the dining credit they have for delivery from campus restaurants. Pay using dining dollars, meal plan points, as well as credit and debit cards.

Social by Design

Through warm network matchmaking, CARI connects customers and couriers within the same campus circles: classmates, shared clubs, majors, or mutual friends. Every handoff is a chance to feel safer and more connected, not just another anonymous delivery.

These micro-interactions scale into a more social community, turning convenience into belonging.
