Restaurants
OpenTable AI agent
Connect Ecco with OpenTable so every guest conversation can use relevant restaurant reservation operations—across voice, WhatsApp and connected messaging channels.
What is an OpenTable AI agent?
Easily connect your phone channel with OpenTable so guest calls become confirmed reservations without manual work. The AI voice agent integrates into your existing booking setup, answering incoming calls and managing availability in real time.
When guests call, the agent checks live availability in OpenTable, answers booking questions, and creates or updates reservations instantly. No handwritten notes, no after-shift data entry, and no missed calls during peak service.
With everything synced, your team runs on a single, accurate reservation view. The phone stops being a bottleneck, and guests get fast, consistent answers whenever they call.
