Why we're sharing this

Over the past year, our team built a list of the people who shape this industry. Journalists, editors, tastemakers, creators, chefs and restaurateurs, more than 10,000 of them. Some came from what's public online. Most we added one by one, and we're still adding more every week. It's a list that will never be finished.

We built it for the restaurants we work with, so their teams would know when someone from the industry was on the book. It doesn't need anything else from Loyalist to be useful, so now any restaurant on Resy or OpenTable can have it.

It's free, and it will never become a paid product. We'll never contact your guests or sell your data. I hope it makes a few of your nights a little better.

FAQ

Is it really free?

Yes. Every tool is free and will never become a paid product. No Loyalist account, no card.

What happens to my data?

We use your reservations to send your team's morning email. We never contact your guests and never sell your data. You can disconnect anytime. Read our privacy policy.

Where does the list come from?

Our team built it by hand over the past year, researching journalists, editors, award voters, creators, chefs and restaurateurs one by one, so you don't have to. We update it every week, and we've offered it to our restaurant partners as part of our services.

How accurate is it?

We match mainly on names, and sometimes on emails and phone numbers we've collected ourselves. We will not reveal their emails and phone numbers directly in the email itself. We're usually right, but with 10,000+ people who often change jobs, we can't guarantee every match. The alert helps you prepare in case the guest is who we think they are. Your team makes the call once they arrive.
