Hostie Pricing Overview

Hostie ensures we never miss a call by answering 24/7, including during peak hours, evenings, and holidays. This allows us to capture orders and reservations that would otherwise go unanswered or be lost to competitors.

By eliminating missed calls, Hostie directly helps recover lost revenue from phone inquiries and reservations that were previously unhandled.

Hostie also reduces labor costs by removing the need for dedicated staff to manage phones. It efficiently handles routine inquiries such as hours of operation, menu questions, and reservations without additional staffing, overtime, or training expenses.

The platform integrates with our restaurant technology stack, enabling it to manage bookings and orders while keeping menus and operating hours accurate and up to date automatically.

Finally, Hostie delivers consistency and operational efficiency by providing accurate, reliable information on every call. This allows our in-store teams to remain focused on guest experience rather than being pulled away to answer the phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As with any AI-based system, an efficient and scalable approach to identifying gaps and refining AI prompts must be clearly defined. Regular review of interactions is necessary to quickly pinpoint improvement opportunities and continuously train the system to deliver accurate, on-brand responses.

Without a structured and efficient refinement process, AI performance can decline over time as menus, policies, and guest expectations evolve. Establishing this framework upfront is critical to maintaining high-quality interactions and long-term value from any AI solution.

I would like to see Hostie develop this further on how to have AI play more of a role in identifying the gaps and recommendations where I could quickly review and approve new prompts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I value most about HOSTIE is the efficiency and dependability it adds to restaurant operations. It streamlines the service experience by allowing hosts and managers to focus on guests, while HOSTIE takes care of inquiries such as business hours, reservation procedures, and addresses straightforward issues like reservation cancellations. The customer service team at HOSTIE is wonderful too - they check in for any updates, send out success reports and work as a team to make sure it’s consistently improving. So far we are happy with our partnership with them! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In the future, I would really like to see a direct partnership with Open Table, as this would allow us to fully take advantage of all the available features. While some people are still hesitant about interacting with a robot, I believe that, over time, this will become more accepted. However, it's important to ensure that people still have the option to speak with a real person, as that remains valuable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
