Industries · Restaurants, cafés and food
Cook the food. We'll handle the inbox.
Catering enquiries, "are you open?" messages and supplier invoices don't stop for service. An AI agent picks them up, so a big order never sits unanswered until closing.
For: Restaurants, cafés, food trucks, caterers, bakeries and ghost kitchens.

Sound familiar?
Where the week goes.
Three common time sinks for restaurants, cafés and food. None of them need you personally.
- 01
Enquiries lost during service
A catering request comes in at 6 pm on a Friday. Nobody sees it until Monday, and they've booked someone else.
- 02
The same questions all day
Hours, menu, gluten-free, parking, "do you deliver?". Every answer takes someone off the line.
- 03
Food costs you can't see
Supplier invoices in a shoebox, delivery-app payouts that don't add up, and no idea what a plate really costs.
What we build
Agents that take the job off your plate.
Every system is built for one business, so this is a starting point, not a package. Each card links to the solution behind it.

Books too?
Bookkeeping that knows your industry.
Our bookkeeping service has a page for this kind of business: flat monthly pricing, a live dashboard and books closed by the 10th. Already have a bookkeeper? Keep them; the agents work alongside them.
A made-up example
What it looks like in practice.
On the left, the conversation your customer sees. On the right, what the agent actually did with its tools.
What the agent did
- check_calendar(Fri 14th, lunch)→ free
- save_lead(40 people, 2 diets, delivery)→ lead L-318 saved
- notify_team(catering lead)→ alert in team chat
Example conversation. The business, the customer and the details are made up; the tools are the real kind we build.
Will it get our menu right?
It answers from your real menu, hours and policies. Anything it isn't sure about, like a serious allergy question, goes to a person.
Does it take phone orders?
No. It handles messages, chat and email, and can text back calls you miss. Online ordering stays with whatever you already use.
We use delivery apps. Can it help with those?
It can match delivery-app payouts to your sales so the fees are clear. Our bookkeeping service covers this too; see bookkeeping for restaurants.
