CallerHi, do you have a table for four on Friday night?
CalsoWe do. I've got 6:30 or 7pm on Friday. Which suits you better?
Caller7 is better. One of us is gluten free, is that alright?
CalsoThat's fine, we mark it on the booking and the kitchen sees it. Can I grab a name and mobile?

Anything it has not been taught, it takes a message for and tells you, rather than guessing.

Every call logged

Who rang, when, and what they wanted, searchable in your own words.

Sound familiar?

The cafe owner

Up at 5am. Ordering milk by 6. Missing calls during the rush. Marketing emails stuck in drafts since March.

Calso answers the phone while both your hands are on the machine, and takes the booking instead of letting it ring out.

Usually starts with: the morning rush

The restaurant manager

60 covers tonight, 3 suppliers to chase, one no-show on the roster, and 14 unread booking requests.

Calso covers the phone through service, confirms the bookings and writes down what every caller wanted.

Usually starts with: Friday and Saturday service

The bakery owner

Production at 4am. Wholesale enquiries pile up. Flour runs out mid-week. Seasonal specials never get promoted.

Calso takes the wholesale enquiries you cannot hear over the mixer, and passes on the ones worth calling back.

Usually starts with: wholesale enquiries

After the phone

Once it has earned the phone, it can take on more.

Most venues start with calls and stop there for a while. When you are ready, the same assistant already knows your suppliers, your menu and your numbers.

Negotiate better deals, automatically.

Calso calls your suppliers, negotiates pricing, confirms orders, and follows up on deliveries. It knows your order history, volumes, and market rates.

The knowledge layer

It doesn't guess. It knows.

Most AI tools are generic. Calso builds a knowledge base specific to your venue and uses it behind every action it takes.

Adaptive intelligence

Gets smarter every single day.

Calso learns from every call, order, and email. It picks up on what works, drops what doesn't, and gets better the longer you use it.

Learns your patterns

Notices you reorder oat milk every Tuesday. Starts doing it for you. Adjusts quantities based on how fast you go through it.

Optimises performance

Tracks which emails get opened, which calls land, which suppliers respond fastest. Does more of what works.

Adapts to change

Spots seasonal shifts, price hikes, new competitors opening nearby. Adjusts without you having to say anything.

Why we built Calso

You got into this to make great food. Not to chase invoices.

Every cafe owner, restaurant manager, and baker we talked to said the same thing. The work they actually love (creating dishes, serving customers, building a community) gets buried under admin. Supplier calls, rostering, emails, stock orders, bookings, marketing. It never stops.

We built Calso so you can get back to the craft. The cooking. The plating. The moment a regular walks in and you already know their order. The stuff that made you start this in the first place.

Everything else? Let your AI handle it.
