Maître — AI Phone Agent for Restaurants
AI phone agent for restaurants that handles calls, reservations, and guest questions so staff can stay focused on in-person service.
Maître was built with a co-founder to reduce one of the biggest restaurant interruptions: constant phone calls during service.
Problem
Restaurant teams lose focus when staff must repeatedly switch from serving guests in person to answering routine calls.
Solution
An AI phone agent that can:
- Answer inbound calls
- Handle common questions
- Capture reservation requests
- Confirm or route booking-related information
The goal was to give on-floor staff more uninterrupted time with guests.
Technical setup
- OpenAI realtime models for voice interaction
- Twilio SIP integration for telephony
Status
Product was delivered and validated as a concept. The collaboration ended afterward.
