The review site has updated Yelp Assistant, its chatbot to answer users&#8217; questions, rolling the tool out for all business categories. Its responses will draw on information from the business&#8217; website as well as posts by other Yelp users. The chatbot will also remember past queries and preferences when it&#8217;s used for finding services. Saved information can be managed in the Yelp app under Yelp Assistant memory settings.<\/p>\n<p>Yelp has been pushing more artificial intelligence into its platform, adding <ins>Review Insights<\/ins> in December and announcing <ins>calling features<\/ins> in April. The AI-powered calling is rolling out in the company&#8217;s fall update as Yelp Host and Yelp Receptionist. Yelp Host is specifically for table-service restaurants, and promises the ability to take reservations, change bookings and capture special requests. It is available now starting at $149 a month, or $99 a month for customers with a Yelp Guest Manager plan. Yelp Receptionist can manage calls for any &#8220;eligible local businesses.&#8221; Subscriptions to this AI-powered service start at $99 a month and will begin rolling out this week.<\/p>\n<p>There are several other updates from Yelp, but one of the more interesting ones is Menu Vision. With this resource, pointing your camera at a restaurant&#8217;s menu will show photos of the dish in question along with reviews about that particular item. Menu Vision will arrive on the iOS and Android apps this week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI is the star of Yelp&#8217;s fall product update.
