Ember Grill - Friday 8:29 PM

The clipboard is a war zone. Your phone shouldn't be.

The room is full. Maya and her date are somewhere out front. A host is calling names across the dining room. A two-top slipped out ten minutes ago and no one saw.

yourturn replaces those moments with a tap and a text. Your host sees the live queue, guests watch their place, and ready texts bring people back at the right moment.

8:29 PM
Maya scans the QR at the door. Party of 2.

Join SMS goes out. She opens the live status page, sees ~20m estimated.

8:34 PM
Host sees her on the tablet - no clipboard.

Floor map updates in real time. Jordan Park's four-top is almost done.

8:49 PM
Table 12 opens. Host taps Ready.

Ready SMS and the table-ready card hit her phone together.

8:51 PM
Maya taps On my way. She's seated at 8:54.

No shouting, no missed party, no empty table.

For your guests

FAQ

Answers, plainly.

Still have questions? Book a 15-minute demo - we'll walk through your Friday night.

Under 5 minutes. If you have a tablet or phone and your restaurant's name, you can take your first party tonight. We'll get you set up on a call if you want a guided tour - usually 10 minutes.

No. They scan a QR code or open a link. The live status page opens in their phone's browser. No account, no install, no download.

You call it - tap Ready, the 5-minute hold starts, and if they don't show up the table releases automatically. You can also text them from the dashboard with one tap.

yourturn runs standalone - no POS integration required to go live. POS integrations are on the roadmap for Pro; we'll onboard you first when they land.

TurnIQ starts from a baseline you set and tightens with real service history, party size, and live table flow. Most restaurants are within a few minutes after their first full week.

Yes. QR code, share link, and a walk-up option work without a kiosk. Kiosk mode is there if you want walk-ins to self-serve, but most rooms start without it.

Set up in minutes - Run it tonight

It's your turn to run a better waitlist.

15 minutes on a call. We walk your rush, set up your first tables, and you run tonight on yourturn. Most restaurants are approved same day.
