Hospitality

Reservations taken while the team is still on the floor.

The phone rings during service, and the person nearest it is carrying plates, not standing by a booking diary. Calls that arrive at the busiest moment are exactly the ones most likely to be missed.

Book a DemoSee all industries

Booking calls arrive while the team is serving, so the reservation either goes unanswered or interrupts someone mid-service.

The conversations this sector handles over and over

  • Table or room reservations
  • Changes to party size, date or time
  • Cancellations and no-show follow-up
  • Guest questions about opening times, parking or dietary options
  • Overflow during service and out-of-hours enquiries

Who handles this

The AI employees recommended for this sector.

Example conversation

A guest calls a restaurant at 7:30pm on a Friday during service, wanting a table for six

An example of how this conversation goes. Not a recording of a real customer call.

  1. AI employeeGood evening, The Anchor. You are speaking to an automated assistant. How can I help?
  2. CallerHi, do you have a table for six tonight, ideally around eight?
  3. AI employeeLet me check tonight’s availability. I can offer eight fifteen, or a slightly earlier seven forty five if that works.
  4. CallerEight fifteen is fine.
  5. AI employeeBooked for six at eight fifteen. Any dietary requirements I should note for the kitchen?
  6. CallerOne of us has a nut allergy.
  7. AI employeeNoted — I will flag that to the team so they can confirm the details with you when you arrive.

What changes, for staff and for customers.

For staff

  • The floor team is not pulled off service to answer the phone
  • Bookings land directly in the reservation system instead of a notepad by the till
  • Allergy and dietary notes are flagged consistently, every time

For customers

  • Calls are answered even at the busiest point of service
  • A booking can be made without being put on hold
  • Out-of-hours calls still get a reservation, not an answerphone

Systems it works alongside.

  • Reservation or table-management system
  • SMS for confirmations
  • Kitchen or floor communication for allergy flags

What it hands to a person.

  • Any allergy or dietary requirement, which is always confirmed again in person by the team
  • Complaints about a previous visit
  • Large group or event bookings above a size you define

Questions about Hospitality

Is an allergy noted over the phone treated as confirmed?

No. It is flagged to the team, who confirm the specifics with the guest in person before service, exactly as they would with a booking taken by a person.

Can it handle changes and cancellations, not just new bookings?

Yes. Existing reservations can be found, changed or cancelled the same way a new booking is taken.

What happens with a large group booking?

Bookings above a size you define are passed to a person, since these usually involve menu choices or room layout that need a conversation.
