An AI receptionist for hair salons and barbershops
You're in the middle of a cut when the phone rings. Sam answers for you, in English or Québec French, finds an open slot in your calendar and texts the confirmation to the client.
* Plus tax. 500 call minutes included per month, then $0.15 per extra minute.
A salon phone always rings at the wrong time
Whether your salon is in Montréal, Québec City or Longueuil, calls come in while you're cutting, doing a colour or rinsing a client:
- “Do you have an opening Saturday for a men's cut?”;
- a regular who wants to move their appointment;
- “How much for a colour with highlights?”;
- evening calls, when your clients finally think about booking.
Most people don't leave a message: they hang up and call someone else. Sam answers 24/7 the calls you forward to him, either only when you don't pick up, or all your calls while you're working.
What Sam does for you
He books into your calendar
Sam sees your real availability and books directly, with no double booking. If a client is unsure, he suggests at most two services from your list.
He texts the client
A confirmation right after the call, then a reminder the day before. Fewer no-shows, fewer empty chairs.
He answers questions
Prices, length, parking, payment: only with your information. He never makes up a price.
If you have a cancellation policy, he mentions it in one sentence when confirming, not before. A request that isn't on your list, like wedding hair, becomes a clear message in the app, with what the client wants and when they're available.
Sample call
Illustrative example: names, addresses and numbers are fictional.
Appointments, texts and messages
Booking. Sam books into your Google Calendar or the calendar built into the app. The appointment shows up right away, with the name, number and service.
Texts. The client gets a confirmation after the call and a reminder the day before. No more calling back to confirm.
Messages. A cancellation, a special request, a question he can't handle: he takes a message, and you'll find a summary in the app with the call transcript.
Transfer. If a client insists on speaking with you, Sam can transfer the call to the number you choose.

Frequently asked questions
Can Sam handle several services with different lengths?
Yes. You enter your services with their length and price, and he only offers slots where the service fits in your calendar.
What if a client wants to cancel or move their appointment?
Sam takes the message and you'll find it in the app. If you've entered a cancellation policy, he politely reminds them of it.
Will my clients notice it's an AI?
He introduces himself with a first name and talks like a local receptionist. If a client asks whether they're talking to a human, he honestly says he's a virtual assistant.
Can I choose a female voice?
Yes. Sam has a male voice by default, and a female voice is available.
How much does it cost for a salon?
$99 a month, plus tax, no contract, with 500 call minutes included. You can start with a free trial.
