AI Front Desk for Coffee Shops & Cafes

An AI front desk that answers coffee shop questions on hours, menu, catering, and wholesale from your site, and hands allergy questions to your staff every time.

AskMyBusiness puts an AI front desk on your coffee shop's website. It answers hours, menu, catering, and wholesale questions straight from the pages you already have, shows the page it pulled the answer from, and hands off anything about food allergies to your staff, every single time.

What it answers

The assistant only answers from your business's own published content — your hours page, your menu, your catering and wholesale information, whatever you've put on your site. Every answer carries a source line so a visitor, and you, can see exactly where it came from. A second model checks each answer against your published pages before it ships. If it can't verify something, it says "I don't know" and offers to connect the visitor with a person instead of guessing.

Where it hands off

Allergen questions never get answered by the assistant. That boundary is a standing rule in how the assistant is built, and every answer is separately checked against the business's published pages before it ships; separately, a deterministic crisis-and-hazard check runs in code before any model sees a message. In practice, that means a question about nuts, gluten, or dairy in a specific item goes straight to a person, not a guess.

Beyond allergies, anything where a visitor wants to book a catering order, talk to someone, or needs a real judgment call gets the same treatment: the assistant captures their name and contact information, with their permission, and sends it to your inbox — even if it's midnight.

How it connects to your site

Installing it is one line of code, whatever platform your site runs on — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify, Google Tag Manager, or Framer. If you don't want to touch your site's code at all, it can run at its own link with a QR code instead. Either way, there's no rebuild and no migration. You set what it can answer from, where it hands off, and how leads get routed, and you can change any of that from the dashboard later. If something on your menu or hours changes, you can correct it there too.

Pricing

$99 a month, flat, for one business and one website. Month to month, cancel anytime — no per-conversation meter, no feature tiers to upgrade into.

> A full-time front desk runs $4,000+ a month—and sleeps at night. The other tools quote their price on a sales call. This one is printed.

Before any of that, you get a private working preview, free, built in under 24 hours, no card required. Nothing goes live on your site until you approve it. If you approve it, checkout starts a 30-day free trial, and that's when a card gets entered.

What it looks like in practice

Visitor: "My son has a tree nut allergy — is there any risk in the blueberry muffins?"

Assistant: "I can't make that call for you, and I'm not going to guess on it. Let me get someone from the shop to answer you directly — can I get your name and the best way to reach you?"

Common questions

Will it ever answer a food allergy question on its own?

No. That's a standing rule in how it's built, not a setting you have to remember to turn on. Those questions always go to a person.

Can it take a catering order by itself?

No. It captures the visitor's name and contact information, with their permission, and sends it to your inbox so you or your staff can follow up.

What happens if my menu changes next week?

You update the source page or correct it from the dashboard, and the assistant answers from the new version. It only ever answers from what's currently published. Try it free: a private preview, built in under 24 hours, no card, at askmy.business.
