How it works

How it works

1

Start the booking

A customer messages to book; Talksy or a Custom Flow asks what service and when they'd like to come in.

2

Collect the details

Defuser captures the service, preferred date, time, and contact details step by step.

3

Confirm the slot

The booking is confirmed in chat and synced to your calendar or CRM via integrations.

What restaurants & food businesses gain

  • Direct ordering and table reservations in chat without phone queues
  • Booking reminders that reduce no-shows
  • A direct ordering channel that lowers dependence on commission apps
  • Broadcast offers and re-engagement that drive repeat visits

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can bookings sync to my calendar?

Yes. Connect Calendly, Google Sheets, or your CRM through Defuser's integrations and Zapier/Make so confirmed slots flow straight into your existing schedule.

Do I need to staff the chat to take bookings?

No. Talksy and the Custom Flow Builder can handle the entire booking conversation automatically, handing off to a human only when needed.

We're busy at peak times — who manages all these chats?

That's exactly when automation helps most. Talksy and auto-replies handle ordering, reservations, and common questions during the rush so your staff stay focused on the kitchen and floor, and only genuinely complex chats reach a person.
