The Resy alternative that gives you the address as well
Resy runs the book. It does not give you a website, and a full room still needs one.
A real Clay site, built from a Google listing
Resy is built for rooms that are already busy, and it charges a subscription rather than a fee per cover, which for a full restaurant is the better arrangement by a distance. What it does not give you is a site: your page there is a listing, in their layout, and the guest who wants the menu, the address and the story ends up on Google instead. Clay builds that from your Google listing and puts the booking on it.
Clay vs Resy
Your photographs, already sorted
Clay reads the pictures on your Google listing, grades them, crops them for the shape each band needs and puts the best one at the top. Nothing to upload, nothing to resize.
What it looks like when it is live
Drawn rather than described, the page, the address, and what it can switch on.

Questions
How long does it really take?
Most people are live in two to three minutes, search your business, pick a style, publish. There is nothing to install and no signup needed to see your site first, because it is built from your Google listing rather than from a blank page.
Is it free?
Yes. You get a live site on your own name.clay.site address with a small badge in the footer, and nothing expires. The paid plan is your own domain, the badge removed and the pro features.
Do I need any tech skills?
None. If you can type your business name, you can build a Clay site: the live page is the editor, so you tap the thing you want to change. There is no code anywhere, and nothing to install or keep updated, see the WordPress comparison for what that saves.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes, buy it wherever you like and point it at Clay on a paid plan; the certificate is issued for you. Until then the free name.clay.site address is a real one you can print, and it keeps working afterwards.
Is Clay a replacement for Resy?
Not for the book itself in a busy room. It is the website Resy does not give you, and the two sit together perfectly well.
Can the booking button point at Resy?
Yes. Plenty of restaurants keep the book where the staff know it and use the Clay site as the address they hand out.
What does Clay cost?
Free on your own name.clay.site with a small badge, then a domain, the badge off and the pro features.
