Premium · AI Host

A better seating plan, with the room still in charge.

AI Host proposes a validated seating plan for the current service, explains the moves and risks, and waits for a manager to review, apply, or reject it.

Hostbook AI Host reviewing a live reservation book with objectives, pacing limits, metrics, and issues

What changes

Useful restaurant intelligence should propose. Your team should decide.

AI Host combines a deterministic safety baseline with model-assisted planning, then validates every recommendation against the live floorplan and reservation snapshot before staff can apply it.

Choose the operating objective

Optimize for capacity guardrails, balanced service, or the lowest-risk plan instead of asking a black box to define success.

Set the room's real limits

Control turn-risk tolerance, internal-only tables, concurrent tables, covers per 30 minutes, and table starts per 15 minutes.

Validate every proposed move

Reject double-booked or unavailable tables, missing reservations, seated or locked parties, and plans that no longer match the book.

Apply deliberately and recover cleanly

Review metrics, issues, contingencies, and operator notes before manager approval, then undo an applied plan atomically if the service changes.

How it works

From setup to service, every step stays reviewable.

A deterministic baseline remains available when model output is unusable

The current reservation snapshot is rechecked before apply

Seated and locked parties cannot be moved

Applied changes retain previous values for atomic undo

1

Set the objective

Select capacity guardrails, balanced service, or lowest risk, then choose the turn-risk preset and any per-run server caps.

2

Analyse a fixed snapshot

AI Host reads the selected service, active floorplan, table availability, party locks, assignments, turns, sections, and pacing constraints.

3

Review the proposal

Compare assigned and unresolved reservations, proposed moves, turn adjustments, issues, contingencies, and plain-language operator notes.

4

Apply with control

A manager applies the validated proposal in one audited operation; a changed book makes the run stale and requires a fresh analysis.
