Mid-rush, 12 reservation calls into the void. Each one walks to the competitor.
7:30 PM, kitchen slammed, dining room full: exactly when the phone rings most. Missed reservations during service can hit 40% of a restaurant's calls — and booking platforms take 15–30% commission to compensate what your phone misses for free.

FAQ
Restaurants: your questions
We already use a booking platform
Perfect — Signal points callers to your booking link or books straight into your calendar. Keep your platform for the web and recover the phone without commission.
Does it handle groups and events?
It qualifies the request (party size, date, occasion) and transfers group requests beyond your threshold — you decide what books automatically and what deserves a call.
The service is loud, does it hear the messages?
First contact is a text — no noise blocks it. If AI takes the call, it works just as well for the caller, who's in a quiet environment.
What about takeout orders?
AI distinguishes reservation, takeout order and info. For orders, it routes to your existing process (link, quiet-hours phone) or takes the structured request per your rules.
How many covers recoverable on average?
With 15 missed calls per service and a 4-cover, $30 ticket, the realistic range is $800–2,000/month recovered. Run your exact numbers in our calculator.
