The API enables partners to build custom booking flows, create and manage reservations with full detail such as meal date, party size, and customer data, surface preset menus and curated dining experiences, and access personalized guest data including allergies, dietary restrictions, and seating preferences. Offerings include a B2B API for restaurants and a POS API for point-of-sale providers.
