Built for Restaurants

Stop Losing Reservations to a Busy Dial Tone

Deployd builds an AI host that answers every call, takes reservations, handles catering inquiries, and never puts a guest on hold — even during a Friday dinner rush.

✓ Trained on your menu & policies  ·  ✓ Integrates with OpenTable, Resy, Toast  ·  ✓ On in days

The Reality

The Real Cost of Doing This Manually

It's 6:42 PM on a Saturday. The phone is ringing. Your hostess is seating a table of six. The line at the bar is three deep. The call goes to a busy tone. That party of eight just got a table at the restaurant down the street.

Then it's the catering inquiries. They come in at random hours, get jotted on a Post-It, and half the time nobody follows up. Every one of those is a four-figure ticket your kitchen would happily produce — if anyone had time to call back.

You ask people to leave reviews. Sometimes. When you remember. After the busy ones leave, you collapse onto a chair and forget. Your Google rating slowly drifts — not because the food got worse, but because nobody asked.

Staff scheduling is on WhatsApp, on paper, in someone's head. Shift swaps go missing. Servers no-show. The system that holds your operation together is held together by your sanity.

$$
A missed catering inquiry is a four-figure ticket and a repeat-customer pipeline — all in one call.
Fri 7PM
Peak reservation demand. Peak service demand. The exact moment your phone is least likely to get answered.
Reviews don't ask themselves. Your rating reflects who you asked, not how good the food was.
The Build

What Deployd Builds for Restaurant Businesses

Engineered around your menu, your reservation system, your private-event policies, and the way your team actually runs service.

AI Host

Answers every call instantly — even during rush. Handles "what time do you close?", confirms party size, and books reservations straight into your system.

Catering Inquiry Pipeline

Captures the inquiry, asks the right qualifying questions — date, guest count, dietary, budget — and emails you a structured lead ready to quote.

Reservation Automation

Writes into OpenTable, Resy, or Tock. Confirms, reminds, handles cancellations and modifications via SMS so the host stand stays clear.

Review Pipeline

A review request goes out the right amount of time after a table closes. Routes happy diners to Google, gives anything else a private path to you.

Private Event Funnel

A dedicated AI-handled inquiry path for buyouts, birthday parties, and corporate dinners — qualified, captured, and tagged for a human follow-up.

Social Content Pipeline

A few photos and a voice note become a week's worth of on-brand Instagram captions, story text, and reel hooks — no agency, no monthly retainer.

Process

How It Works

No POS overhaul. No staff training overhead. You stay on the floor.

01
We learn your restaurant

Menu, hours, reservation policies, catering ranges, allergen handling, the questions you get every weekend — we capture it all in one short call.

02
We build & train your AI

The host is trained on your specifics, connected to your reservation system, and tested against realistic Friday-night call patterns before going live.

03
It goes live

Every call answered. Every catering lead captured. You get pinged for the things that need a human — large parties, special events, complaints.

Hi, I'm trying to get a table for eight tonight, around 8:30. Is that possible?
Sofia · AI Host
Let me check — Friday at 8:30 for eight. We have a high-top in the back room available at 8:45. That's our closest fit. Would that work, or would you like me to look at a different time?
Elena
8:45 works. And one of us has a shellfish allergy — anything we need to know?
Sofia · AI Host
Of course — I'll note it on the reservation so the kitchen and your server are aware. Most of our mains can be prepared shellfish-safe; the meal-prep stations are cleaned between any cross-contact items. I'll text you the confirmation now.

The Shift

What This Replaces

Same kitchen. Same staff. The phone stops eating your service.

  • Friday rush call gets a busy tone · party books elsewhere
  • Catering inquiry on a Post-It · nobody calls back
  • Allergies miscommunicated between host & kitchen
  • Review requests rarely sent · rating slips

After Deployd

The system handles it

  • Every call answered · reservation booked into Resy in seconds
  • Catering inquiries captured, qualified, and emailed to you
