Our story
Built in the kitchen,
not in a lab
Chez Emil AI wasn't born in a startup accelerator. It was born out of frustration — the frustration of watching the phone ring during a packed Friday service and knowing every unanswered call was a guest who'd book somewhere else.
Emil runs his own restaurant in Berlin. He built this system for himself first — and it worked so well that other restaurant owners started asking for it.
"I was tired of choosing between answering the phone and taking care of the guests already sitting in front of me. So I built something that could do both."Emil Senkel Founder, Chez Emil AI — Restaurant owner, Berlin
