This technology is beginning to expand in the banking sector. In fact, there is a rise in chatbots that promise a better customer service experience, quicker transactions or an assistance to spendthrifts so they can save money regularly.

The weather is nice, why not schedule a business lunch on a nice terrasse? (or a well air conditioned restaurant)

Good news! Julie, your AI-based personal assistant, can now book your favorite restaurant! With this new feature, Julie Desk takes one step further to simplify the meeting scheduling process and make your life easier.

"This new feature shows how Artificial Intelligence can directly improve workers lives and release them from a bunch of repetitive and time-consuming tasks", says  Julien Hobeika, CEO at Julie Desk.

Why this new feature?

While analyzing the type of meetings our dear Julie was scheduling, we realized that a lot of them were business lunches. Our users have their own habits regarding this type of meeting and they usually book tables at the same places. Booking a restaurant then became a repetitive task we could automate in order for Julie to manage business lunches/dinners from A to Z.
