An AI front desk for restaurants and food trucks
Nobody can answer during the dinner rush. Ava keeps a list of catering and large-party callers' name, number, and request on your desk to follow up. Texting them back is coming soon.

What a missed call looks like
Friday service, a full patio, and a catering inquiry ringing out.
- Ava: Hi — sorry we missed you. This is Ava at the restaurant. What's your name, and what can we help with?
- Caller: Priya — catering for an office lunch, about 25 people.
- Ava: Got it. What day and time would you like it?
- Caller: Next Wednesday at noon
- Ava: Thanks — I've passed this to the team. The owner will text you to confirm the details.

Which helpers fit a restaurant
Ava
Keeps a list of callers' catering and large-party requests on your desk. You add them for now. Texting back missed calls is coming soon.
Marcus
Writes slow-night texts for guests who opted in, and weekly social captions.
Leo
Asks guests for a Google review after you mark an event done, and drafts replies to reviews.
What it won't do
- Ava doesn't take reservations or food orders and never confirms a table or menu — you do.
- She won't promise discounts. The only price she mentions is the starting price you set.
- Nothing sends without your rules: quiet hours, STOP opt-outs, and optional approval before anything goes out.

Questions from restaurants & food trucks
Can Ava take reservations?
No. She collects the request and the owner confirms, which keeps your book and your POS in your hands.
Do promos need consent?
Yes. Marcus only texts guests who agreed to promos, and every promo includes STOP to opt out.
Coming soon: texting your customers. Until then, leads, reminders, drafts, and your 5 PM update show up on your desk and by email.
