Empty tables cost more than bad food.
Table Guard doesn't just send reminders — it has the conversation. Guests confirm, reschedule, and feel taken care of, all on WhatsApp, without your staff lifting a finger.
Automated. Conversational. Running while you sleep.
No commitment. We'll show you exactly what no-shows are costing you.
- You take reservations and no-shows are a regular problem
- Your staff is manually confirming bookings via phone or WhatsApp
- You have no automated reminder sequences in place
- You're running 20+ reservations per week
- You already have Speed2Lead active
- You don't have Speed2Lead active yet
- You're walk-in only — no reservation system needed
- You're running fewer than 20 reservations per week
- You have a dedicated reservations manager handling this already
- You need POS integration or payment collection at booking
Table Guard runs on top of Speed2Lead's bot infrastructure. If Speed2Lead isn't active yet, that's where we start.
Get Speed2Lead first →No-shows aren't just annoying. They're a predictable, measurable drain on revenue — and most operators absorb them silently because they have no system to stop them.
Average no-show rate without automated reminders
Up to $150 average revenue lost per empty table per service
Diners who would have shown up with a simple reminder
Time most operators spend on automated no-show recovery
Most reminder tools send a message and stop. Table Guard sends a message and starts a conversation — one your staff never has to be part of.
"It's not a reminder. It's an AI employee that has the conversation for you — and makes guests feel taken care of without adding a single task to your team."
Included
WhatsApp-first booking conversations — guests book directly via WhatsApp. AI employee captures name and number from message one, before the booking is confirmed. No form to fill in.
Chat widget option — prefer a website widget? We include that too. Your choice at onboarding.
Booking confirmation — AI employee sends a personalised confirmation via WhatsApp the moment a reservation is made
Smart reminder sequence — two-way WhatsApp conversations at 24 hours and 2 hours before the booking. Guests can confirm, reschedule, or cancel right in the chat. No staff required.
Large group handling — for small and medium tables, AI books autonomously. For larger groups, AI collects all details and creates a task assigned to your team. You stay in control where it matters.
Deposit collection — optional deposit or payment at booking via Systems Ninjas App native checkout
Cancellation handling — every cancellation logged, contact captured to CRM automatically
Contact capture — every guest who interacts flows into your CRM, including enquiries that didn't convert
WhatsApp API included — not an add-on, not a separate fee
AI credits pre-seeded — ready to run from day one
5–7 day delivery
No volume limits — unlimited reservations, reminders, and conversations
Not Included
- POS system integration
- Multi-location management
- Complex reservation rule engines — we believe a human makes better calls here than any algorithm
Requires Speed2Lead ($99/mo) to be active before Table Guard can be added. Speed2Lead provides the bot infrastructure Table Guard runs on — without it, we'd be delivering a broken product, and we don't do that.
Start with Speed2Lead first →Most restaurant owners have a gut feeling. Here's how to put a number on it.
How much revenue are no-shows costing you every month?
Table Guard costs $199/month. Your no-shows cost you 60x more than that.
How much is manual booking management costing you?
That's time your staff could spend on the floor, not on the phone.
Day 1: Audit & Onboarding Call
We map your current booking flow — where reservations come in, how your team handles confirmations, where things fall through the gaps. We set the rules: table sizes, booking hours, how you want large groups handled.
Day 2–3: Build
Your AI employee is configured inside your Systems Ninjas App. WhatsApp connected. Booking flow built. Reminder sequences programmed. Large group task assignment set up. Your team doesn't touch anything.
Day 4–5: Testing
We run the full booking flow end-to-end. Real WhatsApp conversations. Confirmation messages. Reminder sequences. Large group escalation. Deposit collection if applicable. Nothing goes live until it works the way it should.
Day 6–7: Go Live
Your AI employee starts handling bookings. Your staff stops managing the inbox. Guests get a conversation, not a broadcast.
Ongoing: You Run It
Your dashboard shows every booking, every confirmation, every cancellation. The system runs itself. You review the numbers. We're available if something needs adjusting.
"Every booking Table Guard handles is one less task for your front-of-house team."
