Live product demo · for restaurant operators

Try OpenWaitlist before you deploy

This site is a hands-on demo of OpenWaitlist — the open-source waitlist app for restaurants. Walk through the guest kiosk, staff dashboard, and optional SMS flow. When you're ready to go live at your location, book a call for deployment and 10DLC setup.

Demo URL: app.openwaitlist.privoce.com. SMS in the demo is sent by OpenWaitlist only — not on behalf of a third-party restaurant. Production deployments use your own brand and 10DLC campaign.

What you can try

Everything on this demo is sample data for evaluation. No real guests are being seated.

Guest kiosk

Walk through the touch-friendly iPad flow your guests would use — name, optional SMS opt-in, party size.

Staff admin

See how hosts search the queue, notify guests, check them in, seat parties, and cancel entries.

SMS & progress links

Opt in with your own phone number to receive sample queue and table-ready texts, plus a private progress link.

Deploy when ready

Self-host for free on Vercel or run on-premise. Privoce can help with installation, 10DLC setup, and support.

Sample guest progress link

In production, guests receive a private link by SMS. Here's a fixed sample so you can see the experience without joining the demo queue.
