One way in

Every request comes into Heep. Everything leaves in the right place.

Missed calls, WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, email, your website: one assistant reads it all and replies in the guest's own language. The booking goes into your software, the guest record into your CRM, and group or private hire enquiries straight to your team.

Guest journey

From the first call to the night they come back.

One guest, step by step: what Heep does, what lands in your software, and what stays your call.

  1. 01

    They call. Nobody can pick up.

    The call comes in on your Heep number and rings your handsets, in the order you set. If nobody takes it, Heep writes to the guest straight away, on WhatsApp or by text if the number is not on WhatsApp.

    They write, Heep answers.

    Opening hours, the menu, the terrace, allergies: Heep answers in the guest's own language, with your rules. A group or private hire enquiry is never handled alone, it goes to your team.

    The table is written into your software.

    Heep checks availability, books, confirms and notes the allergy for the kitchen. Your team finds the booking where it already works, with nothing to re-enter.

    The reminder goes out before service.

    The guest confirms, changes the number of covers or cancels in one message. A table freed the day before can still be sold again. A no-show at 9pm cannot.

    • WhatsApp or text
  5. 05

    The guest arrives. Your team has everything.

    The current headcount, the allergy note, what Heep promised in the conversation: all of it sits in the same thread, on the inbox or on a phone.

    The review is asked for. The reply is already written.

    Heep thanks the guest and invites them to leave a review. Google, TripAdvisor and TheFork reviews land in one place, each with a reply written in your tone. You approve it, you edit it, or you turn it down: nothing goes out without you.

  7. And they come back.

    If they have written to you before, Heep recognises them: their first name, the history of the conversation, the tags you have set. The thread picks up where it left off.

Reservation software

The booking lands in the software you already use.

Heep reads your availability the moment a guest writes, then creates, changes or cancels the booking where your team works. No double entry, no extra tool to open.

They all connect the same way, with nothing to code and no change to how your team works.

Heep surprised us with how effective it is and how easy it was to pick up. We very quickly solved a problem we had with phone enquiries. The tool is straightforward to use, effective day to day, and the support is unfailingly responsive.

Frequently asked

What restaurateurs ask us before they start.

Straight answers, including the ones where the answer is no.

Does Heep answer the phone?

No. Heep does not take the call. When nobody can pick up on the floor, it writes to the guest on WhatsApp, or by SMS if the number is not on WhatsApp, within seconds. It then handles the request in writing: booking, change, a question about the menu or the opening hours.

Your guest first hears a greeting telling them they will be contacted in writing. So they know where the message that arrives moments later comes from.

Heep Phone changes none of that. Heep's built-in telephony rings your handsets and keeps the call history; it never puts a voice on the line.

Does Heep replace my team?

No. Heep takes the missed calls, the messages and the repetitive requests so that your team can stay focused on the floor.

You keep control: you choose the hours when the AI answers, how much latitude it has (free, balanced or restricted) and the subjects it always hands to a human, such as a severe allergy or a complaint. Your team can take over any conversation in one tap from the app.

Which booking systems work with Heep?

Zenchef, SevenRooms, TheFork, OpenTable, Resy, Guestonline, Resengo, Tock, Servme and Zomato. Heep checks your availability and writes the booking straight into your software, following your venue's rules: services, rooms, table sizes, card guarantee if you use one.

Each entry on our Integrations page sets out the prerequisites and exactly what Heep does. Your software is not on the list? Tell us: we will give you an honest answer on what is possible.

What does Heep actually cost?

€99 excl. VAT a month for a pack of 1,000 messages, with no commitment. You start with 500 free messages. Each additional venue costs €19 excl. VAT a month. Above 12,000 messages a month, we put together tailor-made pricing.

Every feature and the support of our team are included, whatever your volume. To work out your budget, count your missed calls and your messages for the month: the simulator on our Pricing page does the maths.

How long does it take to get Heep up and running?

Allow a few days, somewhere between two days and two weeks depending on your situation. What takes the time: Meta's verification of your WhatsApp account (one to two working days), access to your booking software and call forwarding with your telecoms provider.

Setting Heep up itself takes a few minutes: you answer a few questions about your restaurant, you upload your menu, and our team does the rest with you.

What happens if Heep does not know the answer to a question?

It does not guess. It tells the guest that a member of the team will come back to them, and your team gets a notification straight away, on their phones and in the inbox, flagged "action required".

Once you have answered, Heep offers to add your answer to its memory, in one tap. Next time, it will answer on its own.
