Instagram DMs die in the inbox
Friday-night discovery happens on Instagram - your DMs sit unread, the booking goes to the rooftop across the road
VIP no-show = $1,200 hole
Saturday VIP table with a $1,200 minimum that vanishes is the worst service moment - without deposits, no recovery
Door clipboard chaos
Saturday guest list lives in WhatsApp groups + Google Sheets + a host with a clipboard - friction, lost guests, blown cover rules
Phone unanswered 22:00-02:00
Phone rings during peak service - host is at the door, FoH is processing tables - the call goes to voicemail

What a Friday night looks like with bar reservation automation on the line.
The same DMs and walk-ins arrive. The difference is what happens when the door is queued and a group of 6 at 21:42 wants a Friday VIP booth.
Without Seekadu
IG DM → unread for 14 hours
"Table for 6 Friday 23:00?" - DM sits unread until Thursday. By then they've booked at the lounge across the street.

Every Friday-night moment - automated.
From a 21:42 Instagram DM to a 00:45 VIP waitlist refill - bar reservation automation handles every booking moment in your venue's voice and your guest's language.
Friday-night tables captured from Instagram in 60 seconds.
A group of 6 sees your Friday-night reel, taps Message on Instagram, asks for a table at 23:00. Without an AI bar reservation system the message sits until tomorrow - by then they've booked at the rooftop across the road. The AI quotes the cover + table minimum, checks live availability in SevenRooms, captures the deposit on VIP bookings, books the table.
- Captures bookings across Instagram DM, WhatsApp, website chat, Business Page
- Live SevenRooms / OpenTable / Resy / Tock / Tablein read on every quote
- Party-size aware: table type, table minimum, cover charge applied per service window
- Captures deposit on VIP + bottle-service tables in same DM thread
- Writes back to PMS with guest + party + arrival + occasion + channel source
