Where reservations get lost

  • The phone rings in the middle of service

    When the room is full nobody can pick up, and a guest who cannot get through books another restaurant.

  • Reservations in a notebook or a personal WhatsApp

    Bookings written in different places give the same table twice, and nobody sees the whole evening at a glance.

  • Tables left empty

    A group that does not turn up on a Saturday night costs a full table. Without a confirmation or a deposit, you find out too late.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Connect your calendar

    Sign in with Google to connect Google Calendar, and forward your number or take a new one. Each reservation will appear there, on your phone.

  2. Step 2

    Set your sittings and tables

    Tell the assistant your opening hours, sittings and how many guests fit in each, and whether you ask for a deposit for large groups.

  3. Step 3

    It answers and books

    The assistant answers, offers a time with room, notes allergies and special requests, and writes the booking; you get a notice. Guests can also book with the Reserve button on Google Maps.

From message to action

A message arrives after hours. The AI assistant replies and acts in your system; for example, making the booking.

Already on CoverManager?

The same assistant can check availability and record bookings directly in CoverManager. That connection needs an access key that CoverManager issues to each restaurant on request, so we look at it with you case by case.

Custom solution

Does your business run on its own system, or on one that is not on our list? We can connect it too. We quote the integration work before we start, and the solution then runs on the plan you choose.

Conditions

  • No setup fee
  • No minimum term
  • 14-day free trial
  • Cancel any time
  • You set a monthly spending cap

VAT not included

Under each monthly price you also see the amount with 21% VAT.

In the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla VAT does not apply: IGIC or IPSI is charged instead.

No surprises at the end of the month

You see your usage in your panel and set a monthly spending cap. At 80% of the cap you get a notice. If the cap is reached, the conversations go to your business: callers hear a recorded message with your contact details, and nothing more is billed that month.

  • Each booking made through the Reserve button on Google Maps counts as one message of your plan.

Questions from restaurants

Do my guests know they are talking to an assistant?

Yes. In its first reply the assistant says it is your restaurant's automated assistant, and guests can ask for a person at any time.

Can it handle large groups?

Yes. You set the largest group it can book by itself; larger groups and events are passed to you with everything the guest asked for.

What about allergies and special requests?

The assistant asks and notes them in the booking, so the kitchen sees them. It never gives medical advice.

Who collects the deposit?

You do. The payment link is for your own account, and the card number never passes through the chat.

I already use CoverManager or TheFork. Can I keep it?

Yes. With CoverManager, the assistant can record bookings there once CoverManager issues your restaurant's access key. A connection to TheFork is available on request. In both cases, tell us and we look at it with you.

How does the Reserve button on Google Maps work?

Guests book from your listing on Search or Maps and the booking goes to your calendar. Each booking made through the button counts as one message of your plan.

Can it answer tourists?

Yes. It answers in the guest's language, among the languages set up for your restaurant.

Can I keep my restaurant's number?

Yes. You forward your number to the assistant, always or only when you do not pick up, or you take a new number for it.

Why restaurants can rely on it

  • Your guests' data is handled to comply with data protection law worldwide
  • The assistant always says it is an assistant
  • Reservations stay in your calendar
  • Deposits go to your account, never through the chat
  • Operated by AD Caldas Innotec SA, the company named in the legal notice.
