Holds your spot, safely. Availability is live and concurrency-safe — a short hold with row-level locking means no double-booking, even if two people check out at the same second.

Prices on the server. Your total — guests, add-ons, demand-based pricing, promos and gift cards — is computed server-side at confirm, so the price can never be tampered with in the browser.

Takes payment & confirms. Stripe charges the card, a signed webhook reconciles it, and you instantly get a confirmation code, email/SMS, a calendar file and a self-service link to manage the booking.

Open to AI agents. The exact same booking runs over a public API and an MCP endpoint — so an AI assistant can book it for you too.
