AI Automation for Cafes
Your regulars deserve more than a paper loyalty card with a missing hole punch. AI runs your loyalty program, quotes catering jobs in minutes, and books out your events calendar, while you stay focused on pulling perfect shots.
AI Overview
AI automation for cafes powers digital loyalty programs, auto-generates catering quotes, qualifies event bookings, and runs seasonal marketing campaigns. It integrates Square, Kounta, and Hnry into a single automation layer so enquiries get answered quickly and regulars get rewarded without anyone chasing paperwork.
The 3 admin jobs nobody in your cafe wants to do.
You opened a cafe for community and coffee. Not spreadsheets.
Loyalty programs nobody uses
Paper cards get lost. Apps feel like corporate spam. Your regulars love you but there's no system rewarding them for it. Every missed punch is a missed moment of delight.
Catering enquiries on the back-burner
Someone wants 30 coffees and 20 sandwiches for Tuesday 9am. Great lead. But the enquiry sits in your inbox while you're on the coffee machine. By the time you reply, they've ordered from Menulog.
Event bookings falling through cracks
Book clubs, birthday morning teas, pop-up dinners: these are gold. But tracking enquiries via Instagram DMs, notes on the till, and half a dozen email threads? That's how bookings get dropped.
The 4 automations baristas will actually thank you for.
Loyalty Sequences
Digital loyalty that actually works. Regulars earn points every visit via Square or Kounta, and AI sends birthday rewards, anniversary offers, and win-back nudges, all branded to your cafe.
Catering Quote Automation
Catering enquiry arrives? AI asks the right questions, builds a quote from your price list, and emails a branded PDF within minutes. You only see ready-to-confirm jobs.
Event Enquiry Qualification
AI qualifies birthday, book club, and pop-up enquiries 24/7. Captures date, guest count, and budget. Books a site visit only for leads that fit your venue.
Seasonal Campaigns
Mother's Day, Easter, footy finals, winter soup launches: AI plans, writes, and schedules the whole campaign. Email, SMS, and social, all on brand.
Plugs into your POS and accounting tools.
Nothing to rip out. We connect what you already use.

Plus Google Business, Mailchimp, Xero, and 200+ apps via workflow automation.
Example Scenario
What this could look like for an independent cafe.
This is an illustrative example of how the pieces fit together. It is not a specific client, and nothing here is a promised result.

- ✕Owner spending 8 hours/week on emails
