An AI receptionist built for nail salons
Both hands are working and the phone is across the room. Answering it means stopping a set halfway.

- Assistant:
Polished Nail Studio, this is your assistant. How can I help?
- Caller:
Hi, how much is a full set, and can you do Saturday?
It knows what your callers mean
The call you can never take
The phone always rings halfway through a full set, with both your hands busy.
Answers while you work
Books gel manicure, full set of acrylics, infill and the rest of your list, without you putting anything down.
Answers what you get asked
Prices, hours, how long each service takes. It answers from what you've told it, and takes a message rather than guessing.
Answers after you've closed
You're open maybe 50 hours a week. There are 168. A call at nine on a Sunday either becomes a booking or becomes somebody else's.
Hear how it sounds
Caller: Hi, um, how much is a full set, and how long does that take, I've got somewhere to be at three.
How much, how long, and does it fit before three.
Polished Nail Studio, and she's watching the clock
Caller: Hi, um, how much is a full set, and how long does that take, I've got somewhere to be at three.
Clayta: A full set is seventy, and it runs ninety minutes, so if we start at noon you'd be out by one thirty.
Caller: Oh, that works, can I do noon today?
Clayta: Noon today with Mai, and you're in.
The price and the ninety minutes come off the shop's own list, which is why it can answer both in one breath and then work backwards to a start time.
Sample calls are demonstrations, not recordings of real customers.

Questions from nail salons
A lot of my clients prefer to book in Spanish. Can it do that?
Yes. It switches to Spanish when it hears Spanish, mid-call, and the rest of the conversation follows. That includes the details it reads back.
People always ring to ask prices. Will it answer or just take a message?
It answers from your price list, word for word. Something you have not priced becomes a message, not a guess you would then have to honor.
Two friends want to come in together. Can it book that?
It books what your calendar can take. Two technicians free at the same time, it offers that slot. If not, the nearest pair of times.
