Restaurant tech has a reputation problem: every new system seems to mean weeks of setup, staff training, and a consultant in the dining room. AI phone answering is different — here's the actual timeline.
Hour 0–2: Share your menu and hours
You send us your menu (or we pull it straight from your POS), your hours, and the questions guests always ask — parking, allergens, delivery radius. That's your part, and it's mostly done over one call.
Hour 2–12: We build and test your agent
We train the agent on your menu structure — every item, size, modifier, and combo — plus your greeting and policies. Then we call it. A lot. You call it too, and try to stump it with your weirdest regular orders.
Hour 12–24: Forward your number
You keep your existing phone number. Going live is a call-forwarding change with your phone carrier — a five-minute task. No new hardware, nothing installed in the restaurant.
Day 1: Every call answered
From the first forwarded call, the agent answers instantly, takes orders into your POS, books tables, and texts confirmations. Your team's only change: the phone stops interrupting them.
What about edge cases?
You define what the AI handles and what gets transferred to staff — catering inquiries, complaints, anything you choose. Transfers happen mid-call with context, and if no one picks up, the message and number are captured and sent to you.
Why so fast?
Because nothing about your operation changes. The AI adapts to your menu, your number, and your POS — not the other way around. That's the whole point.
