# Maple GM: run your Maple setup by chat

> Canonical: https://maple.inc/gm

Maple GM is a chat assistant for restaurant owners and managers. It lives in the Maple dashboard. Owners use it to ask about their business and to change their Maple setup.

## What it does

- **Answers questions.** Calls, orders and sales for a period, a single order by its ID, and menu items with their prices and modifiers.
- **Changes settings.** Store hours and holiday hours, knowledge base answers, notes on how Maple handles the menu, the welcome message, the voice (six options) and supported languages.
- **Works through tasks.** When a caller asks something Maple cannot answer, it becomes a task. Maple GM helps add the answer.
- **Asks before it acts.** Each change is shown first and takes effect only after the owner approves it.

## What it does not do

- It does not answer the phone or take orders. Maple does that.
- It does not edit the menu of a store connected to a POS. The POS owns that menu, so Maple GM explains the fix and links to the POS.
- It does not read or search the transcript of a specific call.

## Availability

Available now in the Maple dashboard.
