Request my receptionist demoVideo transcript
A hostess escorts guests while the desk phone rings. Sophie answers. The film then moves to another call before opening: Sarah requests a table for four, chooses 7:45 PM, and authorizes booking and text/email confirmation. The restaurant, guest, and reservation are fictional; this is not a live OpenTable booking.
Sophie: Thank you for calling The Copper Birch. I'm Sophie, your AI receptionist. How can I help you?
Narrator: During service, stay with your guests. Before you open, Sophie can still help callers plan their visit.
Sophie: We open at four today, but I can help you with a reservation.
Sarah: Hi, could we get a table for four this Saturday around seven thirty?
Sophie: Saturday, October twenty-fourth, for four people. Let me check the available tables.
Sophie: Seven thirty is full for four, but I can offer seven forty-five or eight fifteen. Which would you prefer?
Sarah: Seven forty-five would be great.
Sophie: What name should I put it under?
Sarah: Sarah Miller.
Sophie: I have the number you are calling from, ending in zero one eight six. Is that the best number for your confirmation?
Sarah: Yes, that is my mobile.
Sophie: Would you like to give an email address as well?
Sarah: Sure. Sarah dot Miller at example dot com.
Sophie: Sarah dot Miller at example dot com. Did I get that right?
Sarah: You did.
Sophie: Four guests, Saturday the twenty-fourth at seven forty-five, under Sarah Miller. Shall I book that and send your confirmation by text and email?
Sarah: Yes, please.
Sophie: You are booked, Sarah. Saturday the twenty-fourth at seven forty-five, for four. I will send those confirmation details now. Is there anything else I can help you with?
Sarah: No, that is everything. Thank you.
Sophie: You are welcome. Have a good day!
Sarah: You too.
Narrator: With a configured booking connection, Sophie checks table capacity, existing reservations, and the time between seatings. She confirms only after the reservation system accepts the booking. Your hostess sees the same reservation. With permission and messaging configured, the guest receives a text or email confirmation.
Narrator: You control opening hours, holiday closures, party sizes, and space for walk-ins. Choose automatic booking or requests for staff confirmation. If availability cannot be verified, Sophie takes a request for you to confirm.
Narrator: Keep your number. Give callers a helpful welcome. Request a receptionist demo for your restaurant.
