The AI receptionist

Every call answered. Every table booked. 24/7.

It answers the phone in your venue’s own voice — mid-service, after hours, whenever a call would otherwise ring out. It takes the booking, texts the guest the confirmation, and never invents a table you don’t have.

The venue shown — “The Local Kitchen” — is a demonstration build. The assistant, the booking and the confirmation text are the real product; the caller and phone number are illustrative.

It picks up when you can’t

The phone rings mid-service. It answers.

Every table taken, every pass on the go — and still the phone rings. Your receptionist answers on the first ring, in your venue’s own voice, and handles the booking end to end while your team stays on the floor.

In your voice, not a robot’s. Warm, on-brand, and briefed on how you like calls handled — so callers feel looked after.

Booked against your real hours. It works from your live opening times and policies, so it only offers what you can actually seat.

Texts the confirmation. The guest gets the details straight to their phone — no “did they write it down?” at the pass.

Safe by design

It only says what it actually knows

The fear with an AI on the phone is that it’ll promise something you can’t deliver. This one can’t. It’s fenced to the truth about your venue — and it knows when to hand a call to a person.

Grounded in your live menu

It answers from your real menu, hours and policies — the same source your guests see. Nothing invented, nothing out of date.

Never invents availability

If it can’t confirm a table, it doesn’t pretend it can. It takes the request and routes it — rather than promising a seat that isn’t there.

Hands the unusual to a human

Big party, a complaint, a supplier, anything off-script — it passes the call to a person with the caller’s number, so you can ring straight back.

When the kitchen hasn’t confirmed something — an allergen, a special, a table on a busy night — it says so plainly rather than guessing.

Keep the diary you trust

Already on OpenTable? It never holds the table itself.

If you run your covers through OpenTable, ResDiary or SevenRooms, that stays your single source of truth. The receptionist takes the request and sends it to you — you confirm with one tap. Nothing is ever seated twice.

It takes the request on the call. Name, party size, day and time — captured while the guest is still on the line.
It reaches you, not your diary. The request lands as a notification — it doesn’t write to your book.
You confirm with one tap. The table is only held once you say yes — so you’re never double-booked.

One assistant, two front doors

Talk to it, or type to it — it’s the same assistant

The voice that answers your phone is the same one that sits on your website as a chat. Guests who’d rather not call can ask a question and book right there — and the caller who’d rather speak gets a real conversation. Same knowledge, same manners, two ways in.

On the phone. Answers, converses, books, and texts the confirmation — hands-free for your team.

On your site. A tap-to-chat that answers menu, allergen and hours questions and takes the booking without a phone call.

The live assistant sits at the bottom-right of this page. Tap it to speak, or switch to typing — it’s the real thing.

Listening — just speak
“Table for four, Friday at eight?”
Do you do a gluten-free pasta?
We do — the tagliatelle and the gnocchi can both be made gluten-free. Shall I hold you a table?

Questions owners ask

The AI receptionist, answered

Is the AI receptionist safe to answer our phone?
Yes. It only says what it knows from your live menu, opening hours and policies — it never invents availability or makes something up. Anything unusual, it hands to a human, passing on the caller’s number so you can call them straight back.
What if we already use OpenTable or ResDiary?
It never holds the table itself. When you keep an external diary — OpenTable, ResDiary, SevenRooms — the receptionist takes the request and you confirm it with one tap, so your diary stays the single source of truth and you’re never double-booked.
Does it really work 24/7?
Yes — around the clock, including mid-service when the phone would otherwise ring out, and after you’ve closed for the night. Every call is answered, so a booking is never lost to a missed call or a busy line.
