Questions, answered

Will it send replies to guests on its own?

No - every reply is saved as a Gmail draft and you review it before anything is sent. No email leaves without your approval.

What if the date is already fully booked?

WebRun will draft a polite alternative-date suggestion using the nearest available slots it found in OpenTable.

Can it handle multiple email addresses for different venues or concepts?

Yes - connect multiple Gmail accounts and WebRun watches each inbox separately, routing replies through the correct account.

Put this on autopilot.
