Set and ForgetTry Callie for free

The AI receptionist for salons.

You're halfway through a foil. The phone rings over the blow dryers. That caller wanted a balayage this weekend — and she just booked it somewhere else. Callie answers in your own cloned voice, quotes your services, and books her straight into your Square Appointments calendar — while your hands stay where they belong.

Behind the chair, every call is a coin flip

A stylist's day is back-to-back: gloved hands in color, scissors mid-section, dryers drowning out the ringtone. Walk-over to the phone and you lose the client in the chair; let it ring and you lose the one calling. Most salon callers won't leave a voicemail — they work down their Google results until a human (or something that sounds like one) picks up.

For solo stylists and booth renters there is no front desk. Every missed call during working hours is a cut, a color, or a regular quietly slipping to the salon next door.

What Callie does for a salon

  • Answers when you can't — only when you're with a client or don't pick up within ~15 seconds. Between appointments, your phone rings like normal.
  • Speaks in your voice — cloned from a 20-second recording, so regulars hear you, not a call center.
  • Knows your menu — cuts, color, treatments, durations, and prices come straight from your Square catalog and website.
  • Books real appointments — she reads live availability and writes confirmed bookings into Square Appointments during the call.
  • Filters the junk — robocalls and spam never reach you; real calls arrive as a text recap with who called, what they wanted, and what booked.

Hear her before you buy anything

Pick the salon preset on our live demo and call the number from your own phone — you'll be talking to Callie in under a minute, no signup and no card. Then imagine her covering your line on a double-booked Saturday.

Pricing built for a chair, not a chain

Callie starts at $39/mo, with live Square booking at $149/mo — a fraction of a human answering service, and she works nights and Sundays. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial and comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. One saved color appointment usually pays the month.

Salon owners ask us

What is an AI receptionist for a salon?
An AI receptionist is software that answers your salon's phone with a natural voice when you can't — mid-cut, mid-color, after close — answers questions about services and pricing, and books the caller into your calendar. Callie does this in a clone of your own voice and writes confirmed appointments directly into Square Appointments.
Can it handle service-specific questions, like color pricing?
Yes. Callie learns your service menu — names, durations, and prices — from your Square catalog and your website. If a caller asks something she genuinely can't answer (like a correction-color consult), she takes the details and texts you a recap so you can follow up between clients.
How much does an AI receptionist for a salon cost?
Callie starts at $39/month (Lite — voice clone, FAQ answers, and an SMS booking link, no Square required) and $149/month for Standard with unlimited voice answering and live booking into Square Appointments. Every tier starts with a 14-day free trial. Human answering services typically run $300–600/month and can't see your calendar.
Does it work with my salon’s existing phone number?
Yes. You keep your number. Your phone forwards to Callie only when you're busy or don't pick up within about 15 seconds — when you're between clients, you still answer like normal. She catches the calls that would have hit voicemail.
What if my salon doesn’t use Square?
Callie Lite works with Fresha, Mindbody, Vagaro, Booksy, Acuity, GlossGenius, Boulevard, or no booking platform at all: she answers in your voice, handles FAQs, and texts callers your booking link. Live calendar booking during the call requires Square Appointments.

The next call your salon misses could have been a booking.
