Every customer speaks their own language — even when your staff doesn't.

Every missed call is a missed customer.

Stavio is the AI front desk that answers calls, chats with guests, and takes reservations in 40+ languages — so you never lose a customer because no one picked up or couldn't speak theirs.

What you get

One host. Every channel. Every language.

💬

At the table — menu chat by QR.

Guests scan, type or speak in 40+ languages, and get instant answers — allergens, ingredients, what's vegan, what pairs with the lamb. No app, no download. Less "let me check with the chef" during service.

📞

On the phone — your AI answers.

Stavio picks up your restaurant's line in any language. Hours, reservations, halal, parking, "do you have outdoor seating?" — handled. The AI takes a message for the team if it can't decide. Included in Professional

💬

WhatsApp & SMS — same brain.

Guests text your number on WhatsApp or SMS — your AI replies in their language, in seconds. Same restaurant brain as the table chat and phone line, so the answers always match. Included in Professional

⭐

Hear from every guest.

Every guest sees the same options — leave a public review on Google, Yelp, or TripAdvisor, or send private feedback to the owner. No rating gates. Rewards (if you offer them) go to anyone who takes the time to share, not tied to any specific review.

📍

Your Google profile, always fresh. Coming soon

Stavio drafts Posts for your Google Business Profile — weekly specials, holiday hours, new menu items. You review and tap Publish. Currently pending Google API approval — activates automatically for existing customers once approved.

How it works →
🎓

Your staff always has the right answer.

Stavio writes quizzes from your menu. New servers practice on their phone before their first shift — what's gluten-free, what's halal, which dishes have nuts. Fewer mistakes. Smoother shifts. Day-one confidence.

📊

Intelligence Report — what to do next.

Every two weeks, Stavio synthesizes your reviews, your competitors, your neighborhood, and your sales into a flag-style snapshot with concrete 30 / 60 / 90-day actions. Like having a strategy consultant on staff.

Works with what you have

Keep everything you already use.

Stavio sets up in under 2 minutes and works alongside the tools you already use. You don't have to replace a thing.

Already use Toast, Square, or Clover for orders? Keep them.
Already on OpenTable or SevenRooms for reservations? Keep them.
Already collecting reviews on Google, Yelp, or TripAdvisor? Keep them.

Stavio adds three new things on top — your menu in every language, a 24/7 trainer for your staff, and a smart way to catch problems before they hit the internet.

Who's behind Stavio

Built by one restaurant owner, on nights off.

I'm Ali Kocak — a New York restaurant owner. I've watched too many independent restaurants lose customers they never saw: the tourist who couldn't read the menu, the allergic guest too shy to ask, the reservation call that rang through at 7:40pm. Stavio is the tool I wished I had at my own counter — so I built it. If you have questions, I answer directly: hello@stavio.ai.

The AI Layer
✦

More than reviews.
A full hospitality intelligence.

One QR code isn't just for feedback. Stavio adds a multilingual AI concierge for your guests, and a 24/7 AI trainer for your staff. All tuned to your exact menu, allergens, and service style.

— I —

Multilingual guest concierge

For the tourist who can't read the menu.

Your guests scan your QR code and the AI answers in their language — Japanese, Arabic, Spanish, French — trained on your exact menu, wine list, allergens, halal certifications, and the way your house likes to recommend.

  • Detects guest's language automatically
  • Answers menu, allergen, and dietary questions
  • Suggests pairings and upsells gracefully
  • Works 24/7, even when you're closed

— II —

24/7 AI staff trainer

For the new server who starts tomorrow.

New staff scan a separate, private QR. The AI quizzes them on your menu, teaches service rules, and tracks their progress — so new servers hit the floor already knowing ingredients, allergens, and the house playbook. Shortens the ramp from weeks to days for most roles.

  • Custom tutor for your menu & service
  • Training + testing modes with grading
  • Password-protected — in-house only
  • Manager dashboard tracks every staff member

Built for hospitality

If your craft is hospitality,
Stavio is built for you.

Independent operators who live and die by word of mouth — whose reviews are their livelihood, and whose guests deserve more than a broken-English menu.

Why we built Stavio

Most restaurants have no real system for reviews.

Restaurants rely on reviews — but most have no process to manage them. A bad experience goes straight to Google. A great meal gets forgotten. The owner finds out about problems through a one-star review, not a conversation.

I built Stavio to fix that — to give restaurants a simple feedback loop that works in the real world, where guests are busy and staff are stretched thin.

I'm building this in direct conversation with other restaurant owners, not for them from a distance. Every feature came from a real moment on a real floor, not a product-manager whiteboard.

The problem with bad reviews

Most negative reviews happen because no one knew there was a problem. Stavio creates the private channel that was missing between guests and owners.

The problem with busy guests

Most guests never leave feedback — happy or not — because the moment passes. A simple thank-you (reward or not) for taking the time brings their voice into the conversation, however they choose to share.

Why it must be simple

Restaurant staff are busy. Stavio works with a QR code at the table — no app, no training, no chasing customers after they've left.

How it works
✦

From table scan to review
in under a minute.

No app downloads. No complicated setup. No chasing customers after they leave.

I.

Print and stick the QR

One QR code on every table. Print, tape, done.

II.

Guest sees every option

Public review on Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor — or private feedback to the owner. All options shown to every guest. No rating gate.

Google & FTC policy compliant
III.

They pick what fits

Some leave a public review. Some write privately. Some do both. Every guest decides freely — your reward (if you offer one) applies the same either way.

No incentive tied to a specific review
IV.

Thank-you by SMS

If you offer a reward, their code arrives by text. They show the server. You track every redemption — regardless of which channel they chose.

V.

Track everything

Reviews, top complaints, what guests asked. AI-assisted replies. All on your phone.

How feedback is routed

Compliant by design.

Every guest sees every option. No rating gate. No incentive tied to a specific review. Aligned with Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor, and FTC endorsement rules.

— I —

Every guest sees both

After the star rating, the guest sees public review buttons (Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor) and the private-feedback option side by side. Same screen, same options, regardless of how many stars.

No rating gate
— II —

Guest chooses freely

Some write a public review. Some send private feedback. Some do both. The guest decides — Stavio doesn't push them one way or the other based on their rating.

Guest's choice
— III —

Reward is unconditional

If the restaurant offers a thank-you reward, it goes to anyone who takes the time to share — public or private, 5-star or 1-star. It's never tied to leaving a specific review.

FTC-aligned
Why this matters — Google's Maps User Contributed Content Policy prohibits review gating, selective solicitation of positive reviews, and incentives in exchange for reviews. Stavio's flow avoids all three. The business value — hearing from unhappy guests before they post publicly — comes from giving every guest a visible private channel, not from hiding anyone from a public one.
Platform Features
✦

Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.

◈

Equal feedback channels

Every guest sees the same options — leave a public review (Google, Yelp, TripAdvisor) or send private feedback to the owner. No rating gates. You hear from unhappy guests because the private channel is visible to everyone, not because happy ones are hidden from it.

✦

AI reply assistant

Every review gets an AI-drafted reply in your brand voice. Approve in one tap, regenerate, or edit. Never leave a review unanswered.

The Real Stakes
✦

What changes when you run
an intelligent dining room.

Without a system

The usual quiet losses.

Bad reviews appear with no warning. You find out through Google. The damage is done and you don't know what caused it.
Tourists leave without ordering well. Language barrier, allergen confusion — they pick the safest dish and never come back.
Staff training takes weeks. Every new server is a manager's weekend. Service quality suffers during the learning curve.
Happy guests say nothing. They meant to leave a review. Life got in the way. You lose the positive experience entirely.
With Stavio

A dining room that listens.

You hear what guests actually think. Every guest sees public review and private feedback side by side. The private channel being visible to everyone is why unhappy guests tell you first — not because happy ones are routed away.
Every guest orders like a regular. AI answers menu & allergen questions in their language. Tourists upsell themselves into dessert.
New staff onboard in days. AI trainer quizzes them on your menu. They know ingredients cold before their first shift ends.
More guests actually share. A simple thank-you for taking the time (reward or not) brings more voices into the conversation — public and private. Feedback arrives regularly, not randomly.
