Take the restaurant industry, for example. Calls can lead to more important tasks being overlooked, like doing inventory, balancing staff schedules, running payroll and fixing equipment issues. The issue, exacerbated by the pandemic, is so severe that restaurants are increasingly<\/a> abandoning their phone lines.<\/p>\n Alex Sambvani and Gabriel Duncan, who met while working at Spotify, set out to solve the problem of overwhelming incoming calls using AI, drawing on their backgrounds as data scientists. What emerged from their joint work is Slang.ai<\/a>, a platform that automatically answers the phone for restaurants, retailers and other types of brick-and-mortar businesses.<\/p>\n \u201cSlang acts like a reliable team member that gives accurate responses and helps drive more revenue, giving businesses AI superpowers and empowering them to provide exceptional service to callers and streamline operations in a personalized manner,\u201d Sambvani told TechCrunch via email.<\/p>\n In plainer, less jargony and fluffy English, Slang acts as a sort of digital phone concierge that answers questions and takes \u2014 or modifies \u2014 reservations, including OpenTable and Resy reservations via integrations. Using Slang, callers can book or modify reservations or even simply let a business know that they\u2019re running late.<\/p>\n
