Less time on the laptop. More time running your restaurant.
Between bookings, online orders, stock, suppliers, rosters, reviews and the books, a restaurant runs on a dozen screens. We put AI to work on the repetitive parts so you and your team can get back to the floor.
Book a callEverything a restaurant juggles off the floor
It is not just cooking and service. Here is where the hours quietly go.
Bookings
Reservations and no-shows
Phone bookings during the dinner rush, double-bookings, walk-ins, deposits for big tables and the no-shows that leave a section empty on a Friday night.
Orders
Online orders and delivery
Uber Eats, DoorDash and Menulog each want their own menu, their own prices and an item marked sold out the moment you run out. Keeping them in sync is its own job.
Stock
Stock and supplier ordering
Counting what is left, spotting what is running low, getting the supplier orders in on time and watching food cost so a busy week does not quietly cost you money.
Money
The money side
End-of-day takings, reconciling the till, supplier invoices, payroll, chasing function deposits and keeping it tidy enough for BAS and your accountant.
Reviews
Reviews and reputation
A new Google review can land mid-service. Replying to every one, good or bad, in a voice that sounds like you is what keeps new customers walking in.
Roster
Rosters and the daily scramble
Building the roster, covering a last-minute call-out, fielding shift swaps and keeping your socials and Google profile current with this week's specials and hours.
Where AI Applied can take the load off
We start wherever it hurts most, using the tools you already have. A few of the places AI fits a restaurant well:
AI Receptionist
Answer the phone and take bookings
An AI receptionist picks up when the kitchen cannot, takes the booking, answers "are you open" and "do you cater", and only puts the calls that need you through to you.
Reviews Reply Agent
Reply to every review, in your voice
Every Google review answered quickly and in your tone, so the page new customers read looks looked-after rather than neglected.
Social Media Agent
Specials and posts that keep coming
This week's specials, events and photos posted to your socials and Google profile on a schedule, without you staying back after close to do it.
Workflow Automation
The back-office plumbing
Low-stock alerts and draft supplier orders, supplier invoices captured as they arrive, and a plain daily takings summary in your inbox each morning.
AI-Native Business
Set the venue up so AI fits
Bookings, orders, supplier messages and reviews captured and kept current in the tools you already use, so nothing slips through and the AI you add on top actually works.
Local SEO
Get found by hungry locals
Show up when someone nearby searches for dinner tonight, with a Google Business Profile that is filled out, current and ranking.
Frequently asked questions
No. We work with what you already use. The aim is to sit AI alongside your current POS, booking system and delivery apps and take the repetitive work off them, not to make you rip anything out and start again.
Very little once it is set up. We do the building and the wiring, and we keep what you have to learn and maintain to a minimum. The whole point is to give you time back, so we work around your busy periods, not in the middle of them.
Yes. We tune it to your venue and your tone, and you sign off on how it sounds before anything goes live. You stay in control, and anything important still reaches a real person.
It does not have to be big. We often start with the single most annoying job, the phone, the reviews or the end-of-day numbers, prove it saves you time, then build from there only if it is worth it.
Where those platforms allow it, yes. A lot of the value is in the work around them: keeping menus and prices consistent, capturing the orders into your own records and saving you from logging into three dashboards a day.
A free 30-minute chat. We talk through how your restaurant runs, find the jobs eating the most time, and tell you honestly where AI helps and where it does not. No obligation.
