Three problems. Three fixes. Done.

The daily front-of-house reality, and what a help page actually changes.

Pain

Phone rings every 4 minutes for hours, allergens, or reservations.

Fix

Publish it once. Google indexes it. Guests ask Google or Calli, not you. See Calli.

Pain

Allergen questions are liability-sensitive, and your hostess is not a nutritionist.

Fix

Write each allergen article once, your chef approves it, Calli answers exactly that. Never paraphrased.

Pain

You have 4 locations with different menus, hours, and rules.

Fix

Scale: 3 knowledge bases, one per concept or region. Each on its own domain. Pricing.

Three features restaurants actually use.

Tourist-friendly, phone-reducing, chef-approved. From $29/month.

01 · 50+ languages

Tourists find your menu in their own language.

Bulk Localization translates the whole site in one click. Hreflang automatic, Google indexes each version. A French tourist searching in Paris finds your French menu, not your English one. Multilingual docs.

02 · Widget on your site + Google Business link

Guests search your FAQ before they call.

One script tag on your site. Link in your Google Business profile. Guests find answers to hours, reservations, and allergen questions without picking up the phone. Typical phone volume drops 30 to 50%. Widget docs.

03 · A clean editor for allergen and menu articles

Your chef writes once, updates are one click.

Rich text, tables for menu items, callouts for allergen warnings. No Markdown required. Your chef or kitchen manager can update the sourdough recipe note without a developer. See the editor.

The math

One hour of staff time every service, back on the floor.

Restaurants take 40 to 60 informational calls per day during service. At 90 seconds each, that is a full hour of staff time diverted from tables. One article answering 10 common questions claws most of that back.

Helpable costs $29.

Common questions from restaurant owners.

How do I handle allergen articles without taking on liability?

You write each allergen article once. Your chef or kitchen manager reviews and approves the exact wording. You publish. Calli answers guest questions using that exact wording, never paraphrased, always source-linked. Guests see the article directly, so the answer they get is the answer you wrote. If you update the article, the new version goes live instantly. No game of telephone through a hostess who was not there when the menu changed.

I run 4 locations with different menus. Can I separate them?

Yes, on the Scale plan. You get 3 knowledge bases under one account, each with its own content, its own custom domain, and its own branding. Run downtown.yourrestaurant.com and westside.yourrestaurant.com as separate help centers with location-specific menus, hours, and rules. One account, one bill, zero confusion about which location does what.

Will it work for international tourists?

Yes. Bulk Localization translates your entire help page into 50+ languages with one click. Hreflang is automatic, so Google serves the French version to French searchers and the Japanese version to Japanese searchers. A tourist searching your restaurant name on their phone in their own language finds your menu, hours, and allergen info in their own language. Huge for tourist-heavy neighborhoods.

Can I use this for staff training too?

Yes. Many restaurants use the same knowledge base for guests and for new hires. Guest-facing articles stay public. Staff-only content like opening procedures, POS guides, and table-numbering can live in private sections on the Business plan and above. New servers get one link, one login, all the information in one place. No more Google Drive scavenger hunt on day one.

What does Helpable cost for a restaurant?

Pro is $29/month with unlimited articles, a custom domain, the embeddable widget, Calli AI, analytics, and one team member seat. Perfect for single-location restaurants. Business is $79/month with unlimited team members and private sections for staff content. Scale is $199/month with 3 knowledge bases for small chains or concepts. 7-day free trial, no card required.
