Otto is an AI phone operator for restaurants that answers calls, takes orders and reservations, handles complaints, and provides instant information to customers in your brand voice.

When a call goes unanswered, most customers do not call back. They order elsewhere or book another venue. Restaurants miss an average of 33 percent of incoming calls, mostly during peak service when staff cannot get to the phone.

It depends on your call volume and average order value. A restaurant missing five calls a day at a $75 average order value loses over $136,000 annually. Use the calculator above to see your specific number.
