Out of about 320 million trips and orders that week, only 500 Uber Eats orders came from an agent, said CFO Balaji Krishnamurthy. CEO Dara Khosrowshahi described very, very early and very limited traction, while seeing agents as a net positive for demand. DoorDash has received only a few hundred agent orders. Booking a ride takes 50 seconds on average in the Uber app.
