Does it sound like a Robot? 
Will my customers like it?

We know first impressions matter. Whether you’re a BBQ spot or fine dining, we customize our voices. Try it or listen to a recording.

Hi there. Thanks for calling Serta Steakhouse. This is Tony. What can I do for you today?

Hey, um, I wanted to know if I could make a reservation for tomorrow.

You got it. What time works for you?

Can we do 7:30 in the evening?

Perfect. And how many guests will be in your party?

It's going to be six of us and then one kid. Uh, and in that six, there is one kid who would need a high chair. So five adults and one kid who needs a high chair.

Gotcha. So six total. Just to confirm, tomorrow, Friday, August 21st, at 7:30 p.m. for six. Sound right?

Yes, that's correct.

Great. Can I use this number for the reservation, or would you like to use a different one?

This number is perfect.

Perfect. Can I get your full name to save it under?

Yes, my name is, uh, James Scott.

Got it. James Scott, right?

Correct.

Thanks, James. You're all booked in. We look forward to seeing you. Anything else I can help with?

Well, I was going to ask—um, so essentially, one of the people at our table has a birthday, and I want to know if we could maybe do, like, a cake and some candles or something for her. I really appreciate that. That would be pretty cool.

Oh, that sounds like a fun celebration. I don't have the specifics on our dessert options or birthday setups in front of me right now, but I can definitely have the team note it on your reservation. Would you like me to add a note about the birthday so they're ready to help with that when you arrive?

That would be amazing. That would be amazing.

You got it. I've added that note for you. Thanks for choosing Serta Steakhouse. Call anytime if you need anything.

FAQ’s

Frequently asked questions

We’ve answered some of the most common queries below to help you make an informed decision.

How does Certus integrate with OpenTable?

Certus connects to your OpenTable account in a couple of clicks. It syncs your availability, dining rooms, seating areas, private events, experiences, and reservation policies. When a guest calls, Certus checks your live book and creates the reservation directly in OpenTable. No hardware, no extra fees.

Do guests get a normal OpenTable confirmation?

Yes. The moment the reservation is created, the guest receives the standard OpenTable SMS and email confirmation, and the booking appears on your reservation calendar with a table assignment, exactly like an online booking.

Can Certus change or cancel a reservation by phone?

Yes. If a guest calls back to reschedule, change the party size, or cancel, Certus handles it and OpenTable updates instantly, with a new confirmation sent to the guest.

Can Certus book my experiences?

Yes. Wine tastings, chef's tables, holiday events, and other experiences you've configured in OpenTable sync, so Certus knows what's available and can book them over the phone [verify: prepaid/ticketed experience handling]. Private dining and large-party inquiries are captured and routed to your team.

How do I know it won't promise a table I don't have?

Every time Certus offers is checked against your live OpenTable availability before it is confirmed. If the 7:30 slot is gone, Certus cannot offer it. The reservation only exists once OpenTable has accepted it.

Does Certus replace my OpenTable setup?

No. Everything you've configured in OpenTable stays exactly as it is. Certus adds the phone channel on top, so calls and online bookings feed the same book.

Can Certus take phone orders too?

Yes, with the same agent. Orders fire into all major POS systems including Toast, Square, Clover, Skytab, and Aloha NCR, and reservations go into OpenTable. One number, one agent, both jobs.

Can I add Certus from inside OpenTable?

Yes. Certus is listed in OpenTable's integrations directory. Find Certus, click add, and we take it from there: we sync your account, test it with you, and set you live. You never have to book a demo, though you can. [verify: directory flow before build]

How long does setup take?

Same day. Getting started takes about two minutes, and most Certus + OpenTable integrations are live within 24 hours. We handle the sync, testing, and call routing.
