Whether hosting a viewing party at home, or enjoying the games with family, fans can be confident their phone orders will be captured and processed quickly and accurately.

"At Beef 'O' Brady's, we're committed to innovation and customer satisfaction," said Jason Saposnik, VP of Information Technology at Beef 'O' Brady's. "With SoundHound, we're integrating cutting-edge AI technology to make ordering food as simple and natural as possible, allowing our staff to focus on what they do best — serving great food and experiences.
