AI Receptionist for Salons

When every stylist is with a client, the phone rings out, and most people who want an appointment will not leave a voicemail. Our AI receptionist answers each call, books or moves the appointment, and answers the usual questions about services, prices and hours, so nobody has to step away from the chair.

Built for Salons Where Everyone Is Busy With Clients

Most salons, barbershops and spas do not have someone whose only job is the phone. The person who answers is usually in the middle of a color, a cut or a treatment, so calls get rushed or missed, and the busiest hours are exactly when callers are most likely to reach voicemail.

The AI receptionist takes those calls. It handles bookings, changes and common questions on its own, and it only passes a call to your team when your rules say it should.

What You Get

Answers every call

During opening hours, after closing and on days off, including several calls at once.

Books into your calendar

Checks live availability in Google Calendar, Outlook, Calendly or Cal.com. If you use salon booking software, we check during discovery whether it can be connected, directly or through Zapier or Make.

Knows your services

We load your service menu, durations, prices and stylists, so it can tell a 30-minute trim from a three-hour color appointment.

Sends a text after each call

Who called, what they wanted and what was booked, with a transcript if you want one.

Sounds like your salon

Greets callers with your salon's name and uses the wording your team uses.

Speaks English and Spanish

Detects the caller's language, with 50+ other languages available.

What It Costs a Salon

Starter is $299 setup plus $99 a month, with call minutes typically $0.15 to $0.40 per minute. At 200 three-minute calls a month, that is about $189 to $339 a month. Plans are month to month with no long-term contract.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it work with my salon booking software?

It books directly into Google Calendar, Outlook, Calendly and Cal.com. For salon booking software, it depends on whether that software allows outside connections, so we check yours during discovery before you pay for anything. If it cannot be connected, the AI can still take the booking request and text it to you.

Can callers book with a specific stylist?

Yes, if each stylist has their own calendar or availability. The AI asks who the caller wants and offers that person's open times, or the first available stylist if they have no preference.

Can it quote prices?

It shares the prices or price ranges you approve. For services that need a consultation, such as color corrections, it books the consultation and does not guess a price.

What happens when a caller wants to talk to a person?

It follows your rules. It can transfer the call to the front desk or a manager, or take a message and promise a callback.

We are a small shop with two chairs. Is it worth it?

Small shops often benefit most, because nobody is free to answer. If you only get a few calls a week and rarely miss one, you may not need it yet.

Can it take deposits or payments?

It does not take card details over the phone. If you require a deposit, it can tell the caller and text them your payment or booking link.
