The problem
The phone rings at the worst moment.
The busiest minutes of your day are exactly when nobody can get to the phone.
Someone wants a table for six on Saturday. Someone else asks if you're open on the bank holiday, if there's parking, if you take walk-ins. The calls come mid-service, and every one that rings out may be a booking that goes to the place down the road.
An AI receptionist answers those calls and messages for you, in your restaurant's tone, using the answers you give it. It takes the booking, confirms it, and sends the guest a reminder before they come, so empty tables from no-shows happen less.

Questions
Straight answers.
Can an AI receptionist take restaurant bookings?
Yes. It can take a booking by phone, on your website or on WhatsApp, check the time you have set as available, confirm it with the guest and send a reminder before the visit. Where your current booking system allows a connection, we link to it instead of replacing it.
What about allergy questions?
Allergen information must come from you, so the assistant only repeats what you have given it, and anything it is not sure about is passed straight to a member of staff. It never guesses.
Will it work with my booking system?
We check that during the visit. Many booking and POS systems can be connected; where one can't, we set up the simplest workable option and explain it in the written plan.
Does it sound like a robot?
It uses a natural-sounding voice and speaks in your restaurant's tone. If a caller asks, it says it is an AI assistant, and it hands over to a person whenever you want it to.
How do we start?
Send us a WhatsApp message. We visit, see how bookings and calls really work in your restaurant, and give you a written plan before any work begins.
