Restaurants
OpenTable AI agent
Ecco can use restaurant reservation operations from OpenTable in guest conversations when an approved connection is available. Confirm channels and actions for your setup with our team.
What is an OpenTable AI agent?
OpenTable manages restaurant reservations and table availability. Ecco can answer incoming calls and collect the details of a guest’s booking request.
If a supported OpenTable connection is configured, Ecco can use the permitted reservation context for the agreed workflow. Live availability checks, booking creation, changes and synchronization require confirmation for your venue before they are promised to guests.
