On shift עב

An AI host for tables, the menu and takeout

Mid-rush, the phone keeps ringing: “Any tables tonight?”, “Do you deliver?”. Your agent answers from your menu, sends your reservation or ordering link, and passes catering to the team.

Free, no commitment. In English, Spanish and any language your customers speak.

The calls that stall a shift

  • The phone rings in the middle of the rush

    At 7 p.m. the host is answering about hours and parking instead of seating guests, and every missed call is a missed order. Your agent picks up calls and texts, and the team stays on the floor.

  • Menu questions never stop

    Vegan, gluten-free, kids’ options, what’s in the sauce. Your agent answers from your menu, and on allergies it always asks the guest to tell the server when ordering.

  • Catering and large parties get buried

    A rehearsal dinner for 30 or an office lunch order lands among dozens of messages. Your agent collects the date, headcount and budget, and sends it to whoever handles catering in one tidy message.

What diners ask, and how your agent answers

Sample conversations from a steakhouse, a pizzeria, a taquería, a Thai kitchen and a diner. Every answer comes from the menu, the website or the team.

    Any table for six tonight at 8:30?

    I can’t see open tables, but I’ve texted you our OpenTable link, where you can see what’s free and book. If nothing works, I’ll pass your request to the host.

    Is the pad thai peanut-free? My son is allergic.

    The menu says the pad thai is made with peanuts. I can’t promise any dish is allergen-free, so please tell the staff about the allergy when you order.

Works with the link you already have

Your agent doesn’t replace your reservation or ordering system. It finds your link on your website and sends it to guests at the right moment. It can’t see which tables are free, and never confirms a reservation itself.

  • OpenTablereservations
  • Resyreservations
  • Tockprepaid reservations and ticketed dinners
  • Toastonline ordering and pickup
  • DoorDashdelivery
  • Uber Eatsdelivery

No reservation system? Your agent collects the name, number, time and party size, and passes them to the team.

What your agent never does at a restaurant

  • Promise a dish is safe for an allergy

    It shares what your menu says about ingredients and allergens, and always asks guests to tell the staff about an allergy when they order.

  • Confirm a table, an order or a delivery time

    Only your own system can do that. It sends your link, and if there isn’t one, it collects the details for your team.

  • Invent dishes or prices

    It answers only from your menu and website. Something not listed? It asks the team.

  • Pretend to be human

    It says it’s an AI assistant at the start of every conversation, and on the phone that the call is recorded.

A channel for every kind of diner

  • Website chat

    Chat on your website, next to the menu: dishes, hours and parking.

  • WhatsApp

    Guests who prefer WhatsApp ask for a table tonight and send catering requests there.

  • Phone

    Answers your local number during the rush, when nobody can pick up.

  • Texts

    Texts from your local number: the reservation or ordering link, straight to their phone.

Priced by the size of your team

Every channel in every plan, with a local number in your area code. Pick by the number of people on your team.

Questions

Does it connect to OpenTable or Resy?

It sends guests your own OpenTable, Resy or Tock link, so the reservation happens there as usual. It can’t see your book and never holds tables.

What does it say about allergies?

Only what your menu and website say, and never “it’s safe”. For any allergy question, it asks the guest to tell the staff when ordering.

How does it keep up when the menu changes?

Once a week it rereads your website and learns what changed. On your management page you can also edit the information it answers from yourself, for example your Thanksgiving hours.

And catering and large parties?

It collects the date, headcount, type of event and budget, and sends it all to whoever handles catering on WhatsApp and by email. You set the price and confirm the date.

Does it answer after close and on holidays?

Yes, 24/7. If you’re closed, it says when you open and shares your reservation or ordering link for the next service.
