One More System
A phone tool that isn't connected to your ordering stack means another menu to maintain and another place for prices to drift.
TARA works with any POS that uses Olo. She answers every call, takes the order from your synced menu and routes it to your POS, with no commission on your orders.
Most multi-unit brands have spent years getting web, app and delivery orders to flow cleanly into the POS. Phone orders usually didn't get the same treatment.
A phone tool that isn't connected to your ordering stack means another menu to maintain and another place for prices to drift.
Each location answers differently, and corporate can't see what happens on those calls or how many go unanswered.
Orders taken by phone get written down and rung in again, which is slow at peak and where mistakes start.
Big orders often arrive by phone, at the worst time, and depend on someone remembering to call back.
TARA plugs into the connectivity you already use, so phone orders follow the same path as your other digital orders.
TARA answers on the first ring in your brand's voice, at peak and after hours, for every location you turn on.
She builds it from your synced menu, with the right modifiers and prices, and suggests a relevant add-on.
The order is routed through Olo/Omnivore to the POS at that location, so nobody re-enters it.
The guest gets a text confirmation. Your team gets the transcript, call tags and reporting by location.
When you evaluate AI phone tools, ask whether they connect to the ordering stack you already run, or sit next to it.
| What matters | HeyTARA via Olo / Omnivore | Phone tools without a POS connection |
|---|---|---|
| Where the order goes | ✓ To your POS | ✗ Re-keyed by staff, or a link texted to the guest |
| Menu accuracy | ✓ Real-time menu sync | ~ A second menu kept up by hand |
| Multi-brand groups | ✓ One agent across every POS in your group | ✗ Separate tools per system |
| Reporting | ✓ By location and brand (Chef's Special) | ~ Usually per store |
| Commissions on orders | ✓ None | ~ Some charge per order |
HeyTARA is fully managed. There's no IT project on your side.

Hours, pickup times, upsells, catering, complaints and transfers, per location and in your brand's voice.
We run test calls end to end, go live, then keep refining TARA from real call transcripts.
