AI host for restaurants, cafes & bars
Diners decide on a restaurant in the 20 minutes before they leave the house — and they decide based on whichever site answers their question first. Are you open tonight? Do you take walk-ins? Vegan options? Private room for 12? Clara is your AI host: she answers, captures the reservation request, and stops diners from defaulting to your competitor.
What Clara solves for you
Diners don't read your menu PDF — they ask a specific question.
Most restaurant sites have a menu link, a hours block, and a contact form. The visitor has a specific question ("gluten-free pasta?", "kid menu?", "outdoor seating in November?") that none of those answer. Clara reads your menu and your policies, then answers in the moment a visitor would otherwise leave.
Reservation requests at 6:45pm for tonight need an answer at 6:46pm.
Restaurant inquiries are time-critical. A visitor asking about availability tonight is making the decision in real time. Clara handles the inquiry instantly — captures the reservation request and notifies your host immediately for time-sensitive bookings.
Private events, catering, and group bookings are high-value but easy to drop.
Group bookings and private events are some of your highest-margin revenue but rarely fit through a generic contact form. Clara qualifies the inquiry conversationally (date, party size, food preferences, budget) and routes a complete brief to your event manager rather than a one-line "interested in private dining" form fill.
How Clara fits your business
Paste your restaurant's URL on the homepage. Clara reads your site, identifies your cuisine, your service style (full-service, fast-casual, cafe), your hours, and your reservation flow. She's ready to handle reservation inquiries in about ten seconds — friendly and welcoming.
You hear her speak on a live preview tuned to your restaurant. Embed one <script> tag on your site. Reservations and event inquiries are emailed to your host stand and forwarded to your CRM via webhook. The voice tier is a memorable touch on the late-night "where should we eat tonight?" decision.
Flat $49/mo (Standard) or $99/mo (Pro with voice). One fee per location.
Frequently asked questions
Can the AI host tell diners whether you're open tonight and if you take walk-ins?
Yes. I read your hours and service style straight from your site, so when someone asks if you're open tonight or whether you take walk-ins, I answer in the moment they'd otherwise leave for a competitor.
Will it answer specific menu and dietary questions like gluten-free pasta, vegan options, or a kids' menu?
It will. I read your menu and your policies, so instead of pointing a hungry visitor at a menu PDF, I answer the actual question they asked, the moment they ask it.
How does it handle reservations and private event or group booking inquiries?
For reservations I capture the request and notify your host immediately for time-sensitive bookings. For private events I qualify the inquiry conversationally on date, party size, food preferences, and budget, then route a complete brief to your event manager.
