    Restaurants

    Keep your attention on diners when the phone rings during service.

    Ella can answer opening-hours and parking questions from approved information, take table booking requests and capture private dining or event enquiries.

    Useful details for your team

    Preferred date, time, party size and callback details, so your team can check availability and respond.

    What stays with your people

    A request is not a reservation. Your team confirms tables, event availability and prices. These examples do not process orders.

    Ella can answer approved check-in, amenities and parking questions and take late-arrival messages or guest requests.

    Useful details for your team

    Expected arrival time, the nature of the request and details needed for a front-desk callback.

    What stays with your people

    Bright dental practice reception and waiting area (illustrative setting)

    Dental practices

    Support reception while the team is speaking with patients or the practice is closed.

    Ella can share practice-approved information, capture new patient and callback requests, and follow an agreed escalation or signposting approach.

    Useful details for your team

    Minimal contact details and the reason for a reception callback, rather than a clinical history.

    What stays with your people

    No diagnosis, treatment advice or confirmed appointment. Clinical judgement remains with qualified professionals; urgent signposting requires practice approval.

    Useful details for your team

    Matter type, relevant initial details and preferred contact information for your team to review.

    What stays with your people

    No legal advice, fee guarantee or acceptance of instructions. A solicitor assesses suitability, conflicts and next steps.

    What stays with your people

    No engineer dispatch, arrival-time promise or confirmed job. Your team decides availability and any safety guidance must be approved.
