Sold out? Get real-time alerts for 85,000+ restaurants. Create a scan by searching for your favorite restaurant and adding your preferred date and time. WaitlistWizard alerts you the moment a table becomes available.
Hey everyone! 👋 For the last year or so I’ve been working on a personal project that aims to help diners secure reservations at sold-out restaurants. The idea is you can create scans for restaurants and filter by date, time, party size, and even specific experiences (if the restaurant offers them) and my site will send you alerts when it finds matching availability.
I know this isn’t a new idea by any means, but as someone who is passionate about dining out, it’s been frustrating to see a rise in reservation scalping and secondary markets built around selling reservations to turn a profit. And yes, I understand that many of the scalpers use similar tools to gain an advantage. So why not democratize the process and give everyone the same access?
I'm always looking to continue adding valuable features so I’d love to get your thoughts and feedback.
If you’re interested, check it out at https://www.waitlistwizard.com and let me know what you think. Thanks!
