    Using AI Boss for Bookings

    3 min read#13

    AI Boss is your AI assistant in admin and can help you manage all three booking types via chat – table bookings, events and resource bookings. In total, AI Boss has 14 booking tools that it selects between based on what you ask.

    What AI Boss can do:

    Table booking:

    • Show today's bookings with status
    • Summarize confirmed, seated and available seats
    • Find a guest with history and VIP status
    • Create a new table booking
    • Change time, party size or table
    • Cancel with or without reason
    • Find available times for a date + party size
    • No-show statistics and top offenders

    Events:

    • Show active events with occurrences and capacity
    • Add a new date for a recurring event
    • Cancel a single occurrence (preserves others)

    Resources:

    • Show resources with type, capacity and pricing
    • Block a specific time for maintenance/event
    • Utilization rate and revenue per resource

    Examples of what you can say:

    Table bookings:

    • "Show today's bookings"
    • "How does tonight look?"
    • "Book a table for 4 at 7pm tomorrow, name Andersson"
    • "Move booking 123 to 8pm"
    • "What times are available Friday for 6 people?"

    Events:

    • "Show all active events"
    • "Add a wine tasting Friday May 3 at 7pm"
    • "How many spots are left for the holiday dinner on December 22?"
    • "Cancel only next Friday's wine tasting – not the whole series"

    Resources:

    • "What resources do we have?"
    • "Block Private Room A next Wednesday 2–4pm, we need to scrub the floor"
    • "Which resource is most popular in May?"
    • "What's the utilization rate for bowling lane 1?"

    Combined questions: AI Boss can combine multiple tools in the same conversation:

    • "Search Eriksson and book a table for 4 at 7pm Friday if he doesn't already have a booking" → searches guest + checks slots + creates booking
    • "How are our wine tastings performing compared to regular Fridays?" → lists events + pulls table booking stats for the same weekdays

    Limitations:

    • AI Boss cannot create new events from scratch (only new occurrences of existing events) – that's done in the Events settings
    • AI Boss cannot modify the resource availability schedule – only block individual times
    • Recurring events are always handled as a series – AI Boss suggests going to the Events settings for major schedule changes

    Tip: AI Boss logs all changes in the audit log, so you always have traceability of who did what. Ask "Show changes to booking 123" for the history.
