Verify a 7pm table at City O' City — by checking the Toast page, not just OpenTable

A 10-slide head-to-head test gave the AI and the AI the same job: a table for 4 in downtown Denver, Friday Oct 9 at 7pm, under $40 per person, good vegetarian options — verify availability without booking and draft an invite. The AI checked only OpenTable, declared no bookings and switched restaurants; the AI confirmed via City O' City's own Toast page that a 7pm table was bookable, which the tester verified manually (The AI took ~6 minutes vs the AI’s ~3).

$40

How it works

  1. Receive the brief (4 people, downtown Denver, Friday Oct 9, 7pm, under $40 per person, vegetarian-friendly)
  2. Check City O' City
  3. Go beyond OpenTable to the restaurant's Toast page
  4. Confirm a 7pm table is bookable
  5. Tester manually verifies the slot exists

Why it’s worth knowing

It refused the easy wrong answer: the table existed, just not on the site its rival checked.
