How it works
Flour on your hands. The phone still gets answered.
Between a full kitchen and a fully-booked day, calls get missed. Meryn answers them anyway, in the time it takes you to wipe your hands.
- 01
It answers
A welcoming virtual assistant introduces itself and uses the business details you've approved.
- 02
It qualifies
Date, guest numbers, venue, budget and dietary needs, captured as a scored lead while the caller is still talking.
- 03
It books
Offers tastings, site visits and calls from your real availability, with no double bookings, and syncs your calendar.
- 04
It follows up
Texts back callers who hang up, emails you a summary after each call and flags anything urgent by text.
Features
A front desk that never clocks off.
Instant booking
Syncs with your calendar, so Meryn only offers times you're free.
Your own knowledge base
Menus, prices and allergen answers in your words, never made up.
Call summaries
A clear write-up after every call, delivered the moment it ends.
Lead pipeline
From first call to booked, with scores that show who to ring first.
Missed-call text back
Callers who ring off get a friendly text with your enquiry link.
Privacy controls
Retention limits, data export and deletion tools for your workspace.
What businesses say
Early reactions from our pilot kitchens.
“We used to lose enquiries every Saturday because we were elbow-deep in a wedding cake and couldn't get to the phone. Now Meryn picks up, asks the right questions, and I get a text the second I'm free. We've booked three tastings we'd have otherwise missed entirely.”
“What sold us was the calendar sync — it only ever offers times we're actually free, so we stopped double-booking site visits. The call summaries waiting for us every morning save us a good hour of catching up.”
