About Certus AI

Certus AI offers a voice agent for restaurants that answers phone calls, takes orders, handles reservations and answers customer questions. It is aimed at restaurants ranging from independents to multi-location chains, and passes completed orders to the restaurant's existing point-of-sale system so staff do not re-enter them.

The company describes a three-step setup. The restaurant forwards its phone line to a Certus number, either all day or only at busy times, keeping its existing number. It then completes an onboarding form and joins a POS integration call with a support representative. The site lists integrations with Toast, Square, Clover, SkyTab, Aloha NCR and OpenTable. Calls are handled by the AI without staff involvement, and payments can be taken through SMS links or through the POS over an encrypted connection.

The site states English and Spanish are supported and that the system is trained on many accents. It advertises a 30-day money-back guarantee, monthly billing without a long-term contract, no setup fees, a dashboard of calls and orders, and private chat support with the team. The site's copyright notice names Certus Inc.

Our read

Editorial view based on public information — not an endorsement.

Fits small and mid-size US restaurants that miss calls and want a flat monthly phone-ordering agent. Less suited to buyers who need certifications, a public SLA or data-training exclusions; the terms let Certus use content to improve its models. Public starting price about $250/month, no setup fee or contract, 30-day money-back guarantee. Compare first: POS integration, accuracy on your menu, and terms on data use.
