How is this different from a calendar widget?

A widget shows a grid and waits. The bot talks: it asks what you need, narrows the right time, offers alternatives when a slot is taken, and confirms. Far fewer visitors abandon a conversation than a blank calendar.

Does it book against my real calendar?

Yes. Frontdesk syncs two ways with Google Calendar, Calendly, and your CRM. The bot only offers open slots and writes the booking back instantly, so you never get a double booking.

Can it take bookings by phone too?

Yes. The same booking engine answers your phone line, SMS, email, and web chat. Callers who reach you after hours book without a human picking up.

How fast can I add it to my site?

About 30 minutes. Drop the chat on your site, connect your calendar, and set your services. Start for free, 24/7, in 20+ languages.

How Frontdesk solves it

AI Booking Bot tuned for Restaurants.

Has a real conversation, then books

Restaurants get a bot that talks back and forth like a person. It asks what the visitor needs, answers questions, and books the slot inside the same chat. No form to fill, no link to chase.

Checks real-time availability

Two-way calendar sync means the bot only offers slots that are actually open. When someone asks "what is available Thursday", it reads your calendar and answers on the spot.

Offers alternatives when a slot is taken

If the requested time is gone, the bot proposes the nearest open options instead of dead-ending. Visitors book something rather than leaving.

Collects details and confirms instantly

Name, contact, reason for visit, party size, service. The bot captures everything, writes the booking to your calendar, and sends confirmation plus reminders by text and email.

Handles reschedule and cancel by chat

Visitors change or cancel right in the conversation. The bot updates your calendar and frees the slot automatically, so no one is stuck calling during business hours.

Lives on your site and answers the phone

Same booking brain on web chat, SMS, email, and phone. A visitor who would rather call gets the same instant booking as one who chats, 24/7.
