AI agent for restaurant managers
Guest Complaint Recovery Agent
Every complaint answered within a day and repeat issues fixed
What it does
Guests complain on review sites, by email and at the table, and each one needs a reply and a fix. Each day this agent collects new complaints and reviews, matches each to the date, shift and order where possible, and sorts them by issue: wait time, food quality, staff or cleanliness. A review mentioning illness goes straight to the manager and is never answered automatically. For the rest it drafts a reply that fits the issue and suggests a recovery offer within your limits. It checks whether the same issue came up several times that week and raises it as a pattern. Later it confirms each complaint got a reply and a follow-up. The manager approves every reply and offer.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
