Find a Table for Friday at Seven
For date night and team dinners. DuckyHelper shortlists places you'd like, learns each booking page as it goes, finds a table at your time and size, books the best fit and adds it to your calendar. Anything with a deposit waits for your slide to pay.
“Find a table for 6 this Friday around 7pm at a well-reviewed Thai place near me and book it.”

It's built to stop at checkout.
It fills everything in and is built to stop before paying. You see what it's buying and the total, then slide to pay or say not now. Your saved card stays yours: DuckyHelper is built not to type the number.
If it hits a sign-in, you sign in yourself. It's built not to type your passwords or card numbers.

Before you ask it.
What do I say?
Press fn (Ctrl+Shift+Space on Windows and Linux) and ask out loud, in your own words, like "Find a table for 6 this Friday around 7pm at a well-reviewed Thai place near me and book it."
Why is the second time faster?
The first time, it writes small JavaScript tools for Yelp and Google Calendar and builds an API from each site's own buttons, forms and requests. After that it calls them directly, so the job runs in one go instead of click by click. It costs less and breaks less.
Will it pay without me?
It's built to ask first before it sends a message or pays for anything, and to wait for your yes. It may not recognize every send or payment, so keep an eye on tasks that involve messages or money. It's built not to type your passwords or card numbers: you sign in yourself, and it picks up from there.
Why not just do it by hand?
Finding a table for six on a Friday means checking restaurant after restaurant, each with its own booking page.
