A pizza shop or a takeout counter is loudest when the phone matters. Hands are in the dough, a ticket is already on the rail, and the line is ringing for a pickup order.

If nobody picks up, that caller does not wait. They order from the next shop that answers.

Triphammer sets up an AI receptionist for restaurants. It gives its name and says it is AI. It takes the order from the menu you approved and emails the shop a short summary.

  • It answers on the number the shop already publishes.

  • It takes pickup and delivery orders while the counter is busy.

  • It gives only the ready time you set.

  • It emails the shop a short summary of the order.

  • A person can step in at any time. Texting is an add-on priced individually.

This page is about the phone at a pizza shop or takeout restaurant. The receptionist does not invent menu items or prices. It follows the script you approve, including evenings when the rush is still going.

On the script

The rest of what the receptionist covers.

  • Pickup and delivery orders during the rush
  • The name, the items, and pickup or delivery
  • A ready time from the window you set
  • After-hours and overflow calls on the number you already publish
  • A short summary emailed to the shop
  • Texting, an add-on priced individually

Where the calls get lost

The problems owners describe.

The rush has both hands busy.

The person who would pick up is making the last order. The phone still rings. If nobody else can answer, the call goes to voicemail.

A missed pickup order tries the next shop.

A caller who wants food now does not leave a long message. They hang up and order somewhere that answers.

One line is already on a call.

The second caller gets a busy signal or voicemail. That order never reaches the rail.

After the dinner rush, the phone still rings.

Someone closing wants a late pickup. The shop is still open, and nobody is near the phone.

How does pricing work?

Every project starts with a one-time setup fee, then a flat monthly plan. Plans are month-to-month with no long-term contract. The amounts shown are the plan prices, and your final price is quoted after a free 15-minute call.

Will callers know they are talking to AI?

Yes. It tells them. Most callers care more that someone answered and that the next step is clear. It follows the script you approve.

What if it gets something wrong?

You can see the calls, and a person can step in at any time. You decide what should be passed to your team right away. We do not claim it never makes a mistake.

Do I keep my phone number?

Yes. The receptionist works with the phone number and calendar you already have. You do not need a new phone system.

Can I pause it in the off-season?

You can pause for up to 6 months and keep your number and settings, then pick up where you left off.

What does a pickup order collect?

The items, the size, whether it is pickup or delivery, the caller's name, and a ready time from the window you set. It repeats the order before it closes the call.

Does it quote menu prices?

Only the prices on the menu you approved. It does not invent an item or a price.

Where does the order summary go?

By email, to the shop and to the caller. Texting is not included.

Is texting part of the setup?

Texting is not included in any plan. It is an add-on priced individually.

What if the shop is out of an item?

The script you approve says what to offer next. A person can still step in.
