Menu and allergen questions

A guest asks about ingredients, spice level, dietary suitability or allergens.

Guest

Does the signature curry contain nuts?

AI Guest Desk · sample response

I can share only restaurant-approved information. The allergen record needs staff confirmation, so I’ve handed this question to the team.

ONE DESK, CONTROLLED RESPONSES

Useful automation without losing accountability.

The module coordinates approved information and actions. It does not claim that WhatsApp Business Platform access, templates, payments, product catalogs or external order systems are connected.
01

Approved answers

Answer menu, ingredient and allergen questions only from restaurant-approved information, with a safe path to human review.

02

Availability and conversion

Check managed availability, then return the correct direct-order or catering path for the selected food business.

03

Conversation recovery

Identify an unfinished enquiry and prepare an approved follow-up without treating every chat as marketing consent.

04

Order updates and feedback

Send permitted service updates, collect structured feedback and keep the conversation attached to the relevant order.

05

Human escalation

Hand complex, sensitive or low-confidence questions to an authorized team member with the conversation context intact.

06

Consent and attribution

Retain consent state, opt-outs, link events and order references so teams can distinguish service from marketing and measure outcomes.

FROM MESSAGE TO OUTCOME

A governed path for every conversation.

Automation handles repeatable work; restaurant policy, platform rules and staff judgment control what can actually be sent.

  1. 01Understand the intentClassify the message as a menu question, availability check, order enquiry, catering lead, support issue or feedback.
  2. 02Use approved knowledgeRespond from current menu and restaurant records. Escalate missing, sensitive or low-confidence information.
  3. 03Offer the next permitted actionReturn an authorized direct-order, catering or support path and retain the conversation reference.
  4. 04Respect consent and measureSeparate service messages from marketing, enforce opt-outs and connect eligible outcomes without claiming causation.

PRODUCTION GUARDRAILS

Connected only after authorization.

A production version requires an approved WhatsApp Business setup, supported message templates where applicable, secure webhooks, identity and location scoping, consent evidence, suppression rules, retention controls and human escalation ownership. Payment and order capabilities depend on the selected market and provider.
