How Vee answers

It looks it up. It never guesses.

Every number comes from your live VineSeat data. Vee lists each lookup above the answer, so you can see its work, then links you to the screen where you act.

1 · You ask

In plain English

Type it the way you’d ask your GM. “This weekend” and “last month” are read in your winery’s time zone.

Who’s coming in today?
2 · Vee checks

Your real records

Before it states a number, name or date, Vee looks it up. If it can’t see something, it says so.

  • Checked reservations for today
  • Looked up “Ortega”

Money answers

Three money numbers. Never mixed up.

“How much did we make?” has more than one right answer. Vee names the figure it gives and mentions the others, the same way your Finance page does.

Charged

Cash taken from guests by charge date, less refunds.

Collected from visits

Money from the period’s visits. The Earned figure on Finance.

Deposited

What actually reached your bank.

Booking value in Analytics is before comps, discounts and tax, so Vee never calls it money collected.

Ask Vee

  • Checked Finance for Sep 1 to Sep 30

  • Deposited: $23,950 reached your bank

The full breakdown is in Finance.

How-to questions

Stuck on a setting? Just ask.

Vee answers how-to questions from the VineSeat Help Center, in short steps, with a link to the article.

  • From our own articles. Answers come only from Help Center text, so they match how VineSeat actually works.
  • Straight to the setting. Each step links to the screen you need.
  • Real people when you need them. If the Help Center doesn’t cover it, Vee points you to Support chat with our team.

Ask Vee
How do I close the winery for a day?
  • Searched the Help Center

Use Closed days. One closure blocks new bookings on every experience at once.

  1. Go to Business → Hours and find the Closed days card.
  2. Click Add closure and pick the date.
  3. Leave Closed all day on, or switch it off to close only a window of time.

Existing reservations aren’t cancelled. More in Blackout dates and closed days.

Security and trust

It only sees your winery. And it only reads.

Vee was built to answer, not to act. Here’s what happens behind every question, and the guardrails that come with it.

  1. 1

    You ask

    In plain English, from any screen.

    Who’s coming in today?
  2. 2

    VineSeat adds who you are

    Your winery and your role come from your sign-in. Nothing in a question can change them.

    Your wineryManager
  3. 3

    Vee picks its lookups

    Only from a fixed list of read-only lookups your role is allowed to use.

    Read-only
  4. 4

    Each lookup is checked

    Your role is checked again and the results are filtered to your winery before Vee sees them.

    • Checked reservations for today
  5. 5

    You get the answer

    With every lookup listed and a link to the screen, where any change is yours to make.

    9 bookings and 31 guests today.

Read-only, enforced in code

Vee can’t book, cancel, refund, change settings or message anyone. Every lookup only reads, and an automated check blocks any release where one would write.

Locked to your winery

Your winery comes from your sign-in, not from the question. Every lookup is filtered to it, so no wording reaches another business’s data.

Sees what your role sees

Lookups follow the same permissions as the pages, checked twice. Someone without Finance access doesn’t get money answers.

Your chats are yours

Saved chats belong to the person who asked. Teammates can’t open them, even owners.

Contact details on request

Vee doesn’t list guests’ emails or phone numbers unless you ask about that guest. Your team’s guest notes stay with your winery.

Guest text is never instructions

Notes and answers typed by guests or the public are read as information. Vee never follows instructions hidden inside them.

Shows its work

Each lookup is listed above the answer. If Vee can’t see something, it tells you instead of filling the gap.

The right people ask

Ask Vee in the dashboard is for owners, admins and managers. In Support, everyone on the team gets help, with their own role’s view.

FAQ

Questions about Vee.

Still curious? We’re happy to show you Vee on your own data.

Talk to our team
Is Vee included in my plan?

Yes. Vee comes with every VineSeat plan at no extra cost, along with every other feature.

Can Vee make changes for me?

No. Vee is read-only. It can’t book, cancel, refund, change settings or message guests. Every answer links to the screen where you can make the change yourself.

What can Vee see?

Your winery’s bookings, open times, guests, money, waitlist, holds and settings, plus the VineSeat Help Center. It only ever sees your own winery.

Could Vee show us another winery’s data?

No. Your winery is set by your sign-in before Vee runs, and every lookup is filtered to it. Vee has no way to ask for another business, and it declines questions about one.

Who on my team can use it?

Owners, admins and managers can Ask Vee from the dashboard. Vee follows team permissions, so money answers only go to people who can see Finance.

Can my teammates see my chats?

No. Saved chats belong to the person who asked. We keep each chat, including what Vee looked up, so our team can check an answer if you flag it.

Can a guest trick Vee with a note or form answer?

Vee reads anything typed by guests or the public as information only, never as instructions. And because it’s read-only, there’s nothing for a hidden instruction to make it do.

Does Vee make things up?

Vee looks up every number, name and date before it answers and lists what it checked. When it can’t see something, it says so instead of guessing. You can rate any answer, and we review the ones marked unhelpful.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. Tap Ask Vee on your phone and the chat opens with the keyboard ready. Your chats are saved, so you can pick one up on any device.
