The Problem: Restaurants Miss Calls and Lose Customers
A Voice AI Agent for restaurants is AI-powered software that handles phone conversations naturally — taking table reservations, answering menu questions, and providing information — 24/7. According to TouchBistro, 72% of customers prefer booking a table by phone over an app (Source: TouchBistro, 2024).
The average restaurant receives 50-120 calls per day. During peak hours, 30-50% go unanswered. Every missed reservation is a lost table worth $50-150. According to SCORE, 40% of small businesses report missed calls as the primary cause of lost customers (Source: SCORE, 2024).

Yappr's Voice AI agent answers every call instantly in natural Hebrew, understands what customers need, and takes action in real time — checking availability, booking tables, and sending SMS confirmations. The agent works even when the restaurant is closed.
