She got on the phone with someone.
Colbie CassidyHOST
She wasn't, like, booking it on OpenTable or Resy-
Katy BellotteHOST
Yeah
Colbie CassidyHOST
... because my mother is a phone call type of gal.
Lisa JenningsHOST
Resi said the hard line is an effort to keep its platforms fair and reliable.
Lisa JenningsHOST
Rivals, OpenTable and 7Rooms, have similar limits on AI bots.
Lisa JenningsHOST
But as these tools become more popular with consumers, reservation sites are also taking steps to embrace them on their terms.
Lisa JenningsHOST
Rezi integrates with ChatGPT and Claude, for instance, and OpenTable this week said it is partnering with Muse, a new AI agent from Meta, for automated reservations.
Leanne ZitzmeisterHOST
How is Carl's Jr. improving its burgers? This week's episode of the Restaurant Business Podcast, A Deeper Dive, features Ivona Alter, president of the fast food burger chain.
Leanne ZitzmeisterHOST
Alter talks about the company's move to freshly made burgers and other changes the company is planning, in addition to marketing.
Rachel WarrenGUEST
It doesn't just, you know, answer text prompts, and essentially it runs each agent inside an isolated environment called the Muse Secure VM, and this is this dedicated virtual machine, if you will, with its own browser.
Rachel WarrenGUEST
And essentially that means the agents can navigate web tools and, and use app connectors for services like Google Workspace, Spotify, OpenTable.
Rachel WarrenGUEST
Now, the monetization angle of this is kinda interesting.
Rachel WarrenGUEST
I do tend to think that this is not going to be something that moves the needle, at least not yet.
Megan DiceCORRESPONDENT
Well, an AI agent called Muse to work as a personal digital assistant, and the company said that users can use Muse to send emails, make online purchases, or even make a dinner reservation.
Megan DiceCORRESPONDENT
Muse works through its own app and can connect with other service apps, including email, Spotify, Ticketmaster, and OpenTable.
Megan DiceCORRESPONDENT
Now, Meta acknowledges it can make mistakes, though, and says users will remain in control.
Megan DiceCORRESPONDENT
I like to make my own dinner reservations just to make sure I got them here in New
Haley SitekGUEST
That's why I'm thinking of it.
Haley SitekGUEST
Um, OpenTable, if you, generates an AI generat- like, description of your restaurant, right? We have a server that gets called out so much in Cincinnati that he's now part of our AI description of our restaurant-
Anthony SitekGUEST
[laughs]

... because so many people talk about-
DrexHOST
Wait, what? See his reservations?
NatalieAUDIENCE
I still have access to your OpenTable account.
NatalieAUDIENCE
I was still logged in.
TadHOST
So, wow, so you had access to his open table, and it wasn't just this date that you would be able to see.
TadHOST
Natalie, I can just tell that it's difficult for you to even hear Ryan's voice at this point.
NatalieAUDIENCE
Like I said, it was a really hard breakup.
TadHOST
My suggestion is dump OpenTable and go find a couple of other apps that might be able to scratch whatever itches you
speaker_1ADVERTISER
have.
DrexHOST
Wait, what? See his reservations? Yes.
NatalieAUDIENCE
I still have access to your OpenTable account.

TadHOST
So, wow.
TadHOST
So you had access to his OpenTable and it wasn't just this date that you would be able to see.
TadHOST
You'd see every time he was planning to go out.
NatalieAUDIENCE
Right.

Meta made its consumer move today with Muse, a free AI agent that autonomously sends emails, books travel, and makes purchases through apps or WhatsApp.
speaker_0HOST
It connects to Spotify, Ticketmaster, Shopify, Gmail, and OpenTable with a hundred million free tokens per week, and it checks in before sensitive actions.
speaker_0HOST
Meta's research credentials back it up too.
speaker_0HOST
Their Era three agent won gold in NVIDIA's Kaggle challenge, placing eighth out of roughly four thousand teams.
speaker_7UNKNOWN
but legitimately world-class
Mark HalperinHOST
... let me check, let me check Kayak and see how cheaply I can fly in this weekend, and then I'll check OpenTable and see if I can get one-
speaker_7UNKNOWN
You gotta take one of Eric's private planes that he has
Mark HalperinHOST
... yeah, there's no cheap flights right now.
