Does it work with our software?
Your POS or reservation software receives each booking by webhook, with name, party size, time, requests and recording link. To make reminder calls, the same software or a daily sheet sends the booking list to the REST API.

Questions from restaurants and cloud kitchens
Can the AI take bookings when the restaurant is closed?
Yes. Inbound calls are answered at any hour you set the line to take them, so a guest calling at midnight can still leave a booking request for the next day.
Will it double-book a table?
The agent records the request with name, date, time and number of guests, and your team confirms the table by SMS or WhatsApp. Because staff confirm every booking, clashes are caught before the guest arrives.
Which languages can guests speak?
You set the agent up in your customer's language, choosing from 12 Indian languages: Hindi, English, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi, Bengali, Odia and Assamese, plus Hinglish. You pick the language per campaign or agent. A Chennai outlet can answer in Tamil and English, a Mumbai one in Marathi and Hinglish.
Can it take food orders for delivery?
Most restaurants use it for bookings, enquiries and party follow-ups, and send delivery orders to their usual apps.
What happens with a complaint call?
The agent listens, records the details and transfers the caller to your manager. The recording and transcript stay on the dashboard so you can review what happened.
How fast can we go live?
You can go live in 1 day from a ready restaurant template. Share your timings, outlets, booking rules and FAQs, test it on your phone, then forward your number.
