Use Case

WhatsApp chatbot for restaurants, cafes and sweet shops

Customers of restaurants, cafes, cloud kitchens, bakeries and sweet shops ask the same questions again and again. A WhatsApp chatbot answers them at once, at any hour, and passes real enquiries to your team with the details already collected. Most questions are menu, timings, delivery area and table booking, which a flow answers well; party orders are better handed to a person.
