The AI manager for your restaurant floor.
Maître’d sees every table in real time, catches the service failures a manager would otherwise have to spot, and tells your team who needs to do what, before the guest notices.
- Ungreeted
Table 14
Seated four minutes ago. No server contact.
- Not cleared
Table 22
Guests left nine minutes ago. Still dirty.
- Ready, empty
Table 25
Clean and open while three parties wait.
- On pace
Section A
Turning at 71 minutes, on target for tonight.
Your POS knows the order. It doesn’t know the room.
Reservation, kitchen, and labor systems each hold one slice of the shift. Nothing holds the floor itself, so the manager becomes the human integration layer: walking the room, reading tables, filling the gap between what the software says and what is actually happening. Maître’d replaces that stitching with a sensing system built for the dining room.
Recover lost turns
A clean, open table with a waiting list is revenue leaving the building. Maître’d flags it the second it clears.
Catch service failures
Ungreeted tables, slow clearing, a section drifting off pace. All surfaced while there is still time to fix them.
Reconcile floor and software
When the reservation system says seated and the table says otherwise, someone hears about it immediately.
Cameras read the room. The video never leaves it.
We mount a small number of cameras in the ceiling of each dining room and wire them to a single computer in your back office. That computer turns what the cameras see into table state, then reads it against your POS, reservation, and kitchen systems. Who is working which section comes from your schedule, not from the cameras.
What we install
A few ceiling cameras per dining room and one computer in the back office. Nothing on the tables, nothing your staff carries, nothing new for them to remember to do.
What it reads
Tables, not faces. It can tell that a server approached table 14 and that nobody has been back since. It does not know which server, and it does not track individuals.
What leaves the building
Table state, and nothing else. Seated, greeted, cleared, ready. The video is processed on the computer in your back office and is never stored or sent anywhere.
It starts as a copilot. It becomes a shift manager.
Every location begins in shadow mode, watching and reporting only. Switching it live changes the timing, not the judgment. The same reads reach your manager during the shift, while the table can still be recovered. As the floor data proves out, Maître’d takes on more of the loop.

One price, every location.
Priced so that rolling out across the whole group is an easy decision once three locations have proven it. No per-seat math, no negotiation at each unit.
One recovered table turn a night covers the month at most upscale-casual price points. Everything above that is margin you were already leaving on the floor.
$500
per location, per month
- Visual sensing and live floor state
- POS, reservation, and kitchen sync
- Shadow mode before you go live
- Rollout support across the group
Hardware and installation quoted separately or amortized into the monthly.
Start with three locations.
Run them in shadow mode for a month, count the covers you got back, then decide how fast to roll out.
Installation takes an afternoon per location and does not interrupt service.
