One restaurant brain.Many ways to use it.

AI-R is the shared operating layer behind the POS, website, phone answering, printers, delivery, reservations, loyalty, recipes, inventory, and Ask AI-R, or the name you give it.

Your menu becomes the source of truth

Upload a menu, POS export, or photos. AI-R builds categories, modifiers, pricing, website content, order flows, and the vocabulary your assistant uses on the phone from the same restaurant data.

Service captures what actually happens

Orders, table activity, staff time, delivery channels, printers, loyalty, reservations, and phone calls all feed the same operating record instead of seven separate dashboards.

Your assistant turns the record into action

Ask in AI-R or Claude Desktop: what changed, what should I fix, which item is losing money, what printer failed, which channel needs attention, and what to do next.

Day 1 cutover

The first goal is simple: run service.

Day one is normal POS cutover work, tracked in AI-R so you can see what is done, what needs checking, and what can wait. Setup is free for as long as it takes, and the clock only starts the night you ring your first real order.

Day 7

Your assistant is ready for the phone

Run browser, QA, and voice tests. Let ambient listening learn how customers actually say menu items before the assistant answers live calls.

Day 30

Food cost and inventory

Scan invoices, enter recipes, log waste, and let plate costs become useful enough to guide pricing and shopping.

Day 60

Marketing and loyalty loops

Use real customer, review, and order data to trigger win-backs, direct-order nudges, and review requests. Fuller campaign reporting and social posting are coming.

Day 90

Operator intelligence

Compare labor, channel mix, menu margin, prep, delivery timing, and marketing outcomes against the restaurant's actual history.
