yelp is adding a new feature called check for me, which uses an ai agent to call restaurants on behalf of users to check wait times. users can access this feature on restaurant pages in the app, entering their party size and phone number. the ai agent then texts the user with the wait times, allowing them to decide if they want to dine at that restaurant. this feature is part of yelp's ongoing efforts to enhance customer support and business processes through ai. yelp is also updating its ai assistant to improve personalization and user experience.
