In some examples, a computer may receive, from a buyer application on a buyer device, an indication that the buyer has accessed information related to a first merchant of a plurality of merchants. The computer may send a communication to a merchant application on a merchant computing device of the first merchant to determine a current backlog of orders for the first merchant. Based at least partially on receiving an indication that the current backlog exceeds a threshold, the computer may send, to the buyer application, item information that causes the buyer application to present, in a user interface, information indicating availability of a meal kit for a menu item offered by the first merchant. The computer may receive a selection via the user interface indicating an order for the meal kit and may send a communication to the merchant application to indicate the order for the meal kit.
