AI agent for catering managers
Hotel Wedding and Banquet Order Reconciliation Agent
Keep kitchen, setup and billing aligned with the latest event order and bill what was agreed.
What it does
Banquet event orders change many times before a wedding, and kitchen, setup and billing often work from different versions. The agent compares the latest event order with the kitchen prep sheet, the room setup plan and the billing, and flags differences such as guest count, menu changes, dietary needs and room layout. It notifies each team of what changed and tracks their confirmations. If a team has not confirmed, it chases and re-checks. After the event it compares the final order with the invoice. The event manager approves the final order and the invoice. Edge case: guest count rose from 120 to 135 but the kitchen prep still shows 120, so the agent flags it and asks for confirmation.
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.

How it decides
It treats the latest approved event order as the source. Any difference in a team's sheet is flagged with the exact line. A change is complete only when the team confirms.
- Latest approved order is the source of truth
- Guest count changes within 7 days need kitchen confirmation
- Dietary changes always notify the kitchen
- Invoice lines must match the order lines
