Questions from hair salons & barbershops.
Will the receptionist sound like a robot to my clients?
No. Your AI receptionist speaks in a natural voice you choose, keeps answers short, and reacts the way a person would ("Oh no, let's get that sorted"). Callers are told once, in the greeting, that they're talking to an AI, and the receptionist never pretends to be a person.
Can clients book with a specific stylist?
Yes. Your AI receptionist knows each stylist's schedule, specialties, and availability. Clients can request their preferred stylist and the AI receptionist finds the next open slot.
What happens to calls at night and on weekends?
Your AI receptionist answers every one, at any hour, and books the caller into your next open time. If someone needs something the receptionist can't do, your receptionist takes their name, number and what they need and sends it to you straight away, so you can call them back.
Does the receptionist handle walk-in inquiries?
Yes. Your AI receptionist tells callers the walk-in wait you've set in your dashboard, or books them into the next open appointment.
Can the receptionist answer questions about services and pricing?
Yes. You configure your service menu with pricing and duration. Your AI receptionist answers questions about cuts, color, treatments, and packages accurately.
What if a client needs to cancel or reschedule?
They call the same number, day or night. Your AI receptionist finds their booking from the number they're calling from and moves it to an open time or cancels it on the spot.
