How many phone orders is my restaurant missing during the rush?

Count the calls that ring out or go unanswered on a busy night and multiply by your average order. Example: 5 missed order calls a night at $30 each is $150 a night, about $4,500 a month. Mobile Bites AI answers the calls your staff can't get to, so those orders come in instead of going to the place down the street.

Work out your own number

Check your phone carrier's call log for a busy Friday or Saturday and count the calls nobody answered or that hung up while ringing.

Multiply by your average order value, then by about 30 nights a month. The calculator on our home page does this for you.

One saved $30 order a day is about $900 a month.

Why the rush is when calls get missed

When the dining room is full and the kitchen is slammed, nobody can stop to take a five-minute phone order. That's exactly when the most people are calling.

Callers who don't get through usually don't call back. They order from somewhere else.

How Mobile Bites AI answers them

Your phone still rings at the restaurant first. If nobody picks up after a few rings, or the line is busy, the call forwards to your AI host.

It answers right away, handles many calls at once, takes the order, reads it back with the total, and texts the customer a payment link. The order reaches your kitchen once it's paid.

Common questions

Will the AI answer before my staff can?
No. Your staff answer first. The AI only picks up when nobody answers after a few rings or the line is busy.
Can it take more than one call at a time?
Yes. It handles many calls at the same time, so nobody waits on hold.
Is the $4,500 a month a promise?
No, it's an example. Your number depends on how many calls you miss and your average order.

Our AI answers your phone and handles your orders.
