Overview

Live AI reception for salons and spas, from first ring to booked appointment.

This AI agent answers the salon's phone line and text messages the same way a front-desk coordinator would. It asks what service the client wants, checks which stylist and time slot is available, and books the appointment directly during the conversation. It runs identically after hours, so a client calling at 9 PM gets the same experience as one calling at 9 AM.

Example

Example workflow

A spa missing a third of its calls during treatment hours.

Scenario: A client calls at 8:15 PM wanting to book a balayage appointment with a specific stylist. The agent checks that stylist's calendar, finds an opening Saturday at 11 AM, confirms the price range, and books it — sending a text confirmation before the call ends, with no front-desk staff involved.

FAQ

FAQ

Questions about voice and chat reception for salons and spas.

Software that answers clients when staff can't — greeting them, answering questions about hours, services, and pricing, and booking them into the calendar, over a phone call or text message.

Yes, as long as it's connected to a live booking calendar. It checks real availability and confirms the appointment during the same conversation.

The phone rings, and instead of voicemail, the agent answers within seconds, asks what the client wants to book, checks availability, and confirms the slot.

Identically to daytime calls, unless you configure different behavior — which matters since a large share of salon bookings happen outside business hours.

It performs the same job as a phone answering service, but runs as a configured AI agent rather than a per-minute human service, and can also handle text and chat.

Yes, if a client asks for a person or the request is something the agent isn't confident handling, it can transfer or take a message for a callback.
