ChatGPT will let you book a table mid-chat

OpenAI's chatbot now does Yelp reservations, meaning users in the U.S. and Canada can book a table while chatting with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT will let you book a table mid-chat

OpenAI's latest ChatGPT feature allows users to make restaurant reservations directly through the chatbot. This new Yelp integration, launched on Monday, enables U.S. and Canadian ChatGPT users to book tables while conversing with the AI. However, any modifications to the reservation must be handled via the Yelp app, not the chat itself.

This feature builds upon Yelp's existing partnership with ChatGPT, which began in July and grants the chatbot access to Yelp reviews, ratings, photos, and other business information to provide personalized recommendations. While other AI competitors like Google's Gemini and Microsoft Copilot also offer restaurant booking capabilities, ChatGPT stands out by allowing users to book tables mid-chat, adding a unique convenience to the experience.
