Show HN: I measured when impossible-to-book restaurants release their tables

Ah, Instinct as in instinct.co, got it. Honest answer: for most restaurants, a general assistant is plenty. Booking is a one-shot errand, and it sounds great at errands. The impossible tables are a different game. They release on fixed venue-specific schedules (one famous room drops 52 to 65 tables at 5:00pm Pacific, daily) and the desirable ones vanish in about 3 minutes. Winning that isn't "try to book when asked." It's standing vigil at machine cadence for weeks, knowing each venue's clock, and striking inside a 3-minute window at 5:01pm on a Tuesday when nobody asked you anything. That's a standing specialist service, not an errand. Honestly, the two compose: an assistant like Instinct should be able to take "get me into X" and hand the vigil to something like this. So: better for the tables you can't get, overkill for the ones you can.

Hotel concierges would be ideal, but consumers are likely avid users.
