Common Challenges We Solve

Missing calls during rush hours and weekends?

VoiceFleet answers every call instantly, even when your team is slammed with table service. Our voice agents handle multiple simultaneous calls, booking tables and taking orders while your staff focuses on delivering exceptional service in the dining room. This means zero lost business during peak times.

Spending too much on answering services or staff?

Traditional answering services cost £300-500/month with quality inconsistency. VoiceFleet starts at £99/month for unlimited calls, reducing operational costs by 60% while providing superior customer experience. Most restaurants recover their investment within 6-8 weeks.

Struggling with booking management and double-bookings?

Our AI agents integrate directly with your booking system, confirming reservations, checking real-time availability, and handling special requests instantly. Everything is logged automatically, eliminating manual errors and ensuring accurate table management.

Use Cases

How do busy city-center restaurants manage peak-time calls?

Leeds's busiest restaurants use VoiceFleet to answer 100% of calls during service times. The AI handles seating inquiries, reservation confirmations, special dietary requests, and upsells (wine pairings, private dining) instantly. Your team stays focused on dining room service while every booking is captured and logged.

What about after-hours and weekend emergency calls?

Many restaurants receive critical calls outside hours—last-minute bookings, customer emergencies, staff questions. VoiceFleet's 24/7 availability ensures you never miss these moments. The AI provides professional responses even at 2 AM, with options to escalate to your team if needed.

Can independent restaurants and takeaways benefit from AI?

Absolutely. Independent operators and takeaways use VoiceFleet to handle order-taking, delivery inquiries, menu questions, and booking requests without hiring full-time staff. We've seen independent restaurant owners save 12-15 hours per week on phone management, freeing them to focus on food quality and customer experience.
