Beyond basic search tools, booking platforms are introducing smart assistants to help users find more personalized options, and the OpenTable AI Concierge is one such example, powering dining discovery and much more.
This new generative AI-powered assistant is useful for helping diners figure out how to get to a restaurant, providing order recommendations, or offering a sense of what people can expect from the overall experience. Concierge is embedded within each restaurant profile, and this feature helps people cut down on the time they spend researching a restaurant before a visit, which is, on average, about 21 minutes.
Soon, OpenTable's AI Concierge will be able to book reservations on behalf of a diner.
