Who it is for

  • Japanese restaurants taking bookings from several gourmet sites

    The gourmet-site controller option syncs bookings and seat inventory across sites such as Tabelog, Gurunavi and Hot Pepper to avoid double bookings.

  • Multi-store restaurant chains

    Store groups, user permissions, multi-group customer databases and a dashboard across stores are part of the manager function.

  • Restaurants targeting inbound tourists

    Linking to the Japan Ticket service lists a venue on overseas booking sites with multilingual booking and no-show measures.

  • Restaurants that lose time to booking calls

    An AI phone receptionist takes reservation calls 24 hours a day and enters them in the ledger.

What it does

  • Reservation ledger with table layout

    Calendar and table-layout screens for entering and checking phone, online and walk-in bookings, usable on several devices at once.

  • Automatic seating

    Seating rules registered in advance are applied automatically to online and phone bookings.

  • Gourmet site controller (option)

    Imports bookings from multiple gourmet sites, assigns tables and reflects seat inventory back to the sites to prevent double bookings.

  • AI phone reception (AIレセプション)

    An AI voice agent named Sayuri answers booking calls around the clock, registers seat-only reservations in the ledger and transfers other calls to the store.

  • Inbound tourist listings

    Through the Japan Ticket Plus link, lists the venue on overseas booking media with multilingual booking forms and prepayment against no-shows.

  • SMS no-show measures

    Sends a text message when a phone booking is made, changed or cancelled so the guest can confirm the details.

  • Customer ledger and CRM link

    Guest details and visit history accumulate with each booking; the vendor says the data belongs to the restaurant.

  • Dashboard and CSV export

    Aggregates bookings, sales and table turns, including by booking channel, and exports bookings and customers as CSV for permitted users.

  • POS link

    Registers walk-ins from the first POS order, marks tables free at payment and ties spend and order details to booking data (some POS only).

  • Free booking links from Google, LINE, Instagram and Facebook

    Connects the restaurant's own site and social accounts to online booking at no extra charge, per the vendor.

  • Offline mode and backup reservation list

    On the iPad app the day's and next day's bookings can be read without a connection, and a separate site shows bookings up to 60 days ahead if ebica is down.
