  • Your menu, prices, allergen information and opening hours in one place, updated within one working day
  • Every call answered during the rush, with the details sent to you within a minute
The problem

Friday night: the phone rings and the pass is full

The busiest hour of the week is the hour you can least afford to answer the phone, and the hour the platforms earn the most from you.

A cut of every order

Delivery platforms take a percentage of every order placed through them, and the customer's details stay with the platform.

Calls during service

A phone ringing during the rush means a missed order, a burnt one, or a member of staff off the floor for five minutes.

Menus that are out of date

A photo of the menu on social media with last year's prices, and no allergen information anywhere a customer can find it.

Tables lost to voicemail

A customer wanting a table for eight leaves a message. Nobody calls back until the morning, and by then they have booked elsewhere.

What we build for you

Your menu, your orders, your customers

A website that takes the orders and bookings you now pay someone else to take, and a receptionist who answers the calls you cannot.

Website with your menu

Menus, prices, allergen information, opening hours and directions laid out properly and fast on a phone. Menu changes are done within one working day on hosting and care.

Online ordering and table booking

Collection or delivery orders and table booking requests on your own site, delivered to your inbox and by WhatsApp. Payment online through a payment account of your choice, or on collection; you decide.

Elara answers the phone 24/7

Elara greets callers with your restaurant's name and takes what they want: a table for how many and when, or a collection order, with their name and number. The details reach you by email and WhatsApp within a minute. She does not confirm the table or the order; your team does.

WhatsApp enquiry replies

Automated answers to the questions you get every day, such as opening hours, delivery areas and dietary options, in your own words, with booking and order requests collected and sent to you.

Hosting and care

Secure UK/EU hosting, daily backups, monitoring and updates. A new dish, a price change or a bank-holiday closing time is done within one working day.

Elara, our AI receptionist

Every call answered, 24 hours a day

During service, and after closing, Elara takes the booking requests and order enquiries so the phone never rings out.

  • Answers within seconds, day and night, weekends and bank holidays, in your business's name and with your greeting
  • Takes the caller's name, phone number, what they need and when they need it, and reads the number back to check it
  • Sends you a summary of every call by email and WhatsApp, usually within a minute of the call ending, with the transcript by email
  • Answers the common questions you give her, such as opening hours, areas covered and what you offer, in your words
  • Tells callers your team will confirm: she never books, confirms or promises anything herself, never quotes a price you have not given her, and never takes card details or payments
  • Works alongside the number your customers already know: forward all calls, or only when you are busy, closed or out

How it works

From menu to live site in weeks, not months

  1. Step 01

    Free consultation

    A short call about your menu, how orders and bookings reach you today, and what the platforms cost you each month.

  2. Step 02

    Plan and fixed quote

    A written plan with scope, timeline and a fixed price. No work starts until you approve it.

  3. Step 03

    Private preview

    Your menu loaded, your ordering flow working, on a private link for you and your staff to try and change before launch.

  4. Step 04

    Launch and care

    Live on your domain with secure HTTPS. Elara's line is live within days. We host, back up and update it from then on.

The benefits

What changes for your restaurant

Keep the margin

Orders on your own site carry no percentage. A fixed price for the build and a monthly plan for hosting and care.

Orders and bookings during service

Online orders and booking requests keep arriving while the phone is busy, and Elara takes the calls nobody can reach.

One menu, always current

Change a price once and it is right everywhere: website, ordering and the answers Elara gives callers.

Regulars order direct

A link from your social pages to your own ordering, so the customers you already have stop paying a platform to reach you.

Staff stay on the floor

Bookings and order enquiries arrive written down, with the details already taken, instead of pulling someone off the pass.

You own it

Your domain, data and code are yours once paid in full. Monthly plans can be cancelled with 30 days' notice after the minimum term.

Questions

Questions restaurants and takeaways ask

Do you take a percentage of orders?

No. You pay a fixed price for the build and a monthly plan for hosting and care, as shown above. If you take payment online, the payment provider's own fees are paid by you at cost. Nothing is charged per order.

Does Elara take orders?

She takes the details of what the caller wants, their name and number, and sends them to you by email and WhatsApp within a minute. She does not confirm the order, quote a delivery or collection time, or take payment; your team calls back or confirms by text.

Can we still use the delivery apps?

Yes. Your website works alongside anything you already use; we do not connect to it. Most restaurants keep the platforms for new customers and move their regulars to ordering direct, where there is no percentage.

Who updates the menu?

Send us the change by email or WhatsApp and it is done within one working day on hosting and care, which includes up to 1 hour of small changes a month. The Managed website includes up to 3 hours of improvements a month.

Can customers pay online?

Yes, where you want it: card payment through a payment account in your name, with the provider's fees paid by you at cost, or payment on collection or delivery. Many takeaways offer both.

How quickly can we be live?

Elara's line is usually live within a few days of paying. A website with your menu takes weeks, not months; online ordering adds a little more. Your written plan gives the timeline.
