💅 AI Receptionist for Nail Salons

Keep Your Techs Working. Ava Books the Appointments.

Ava answers every call during services, after hours, and on weekends — booking appointments, answering pricing questions, and sending reminders so your schedule stays full without anyone picking up the phone.

Sound Familiar?

Every nail salon deals with these problems. Most just accept them. There's a better way.

💅

Hands Full During Services

Your techs are doing nails and can't break for calls. The front desk is juggling check-ins. Clients who call to book go unanswered and find a salon that answers.

🕙

Bookings Requested After Hours

Clients plan their nail appointments on evenings and weekends. Your salon closes at 7 PM, but the calls keep coming — and going to voicemail.

🚫

No-Shows Kill Your Schedule

A nail appointment that doesn't show leaves a tech idle and revenue on the table. Without reminders, no-show rates routinely hit 20–30%.

📋

Pricing Questions on Every Call

How much is a gel manicure? Do you do acrylic? How long is a pedicure? Your staff answers the same questions all day instead of focusing on clients.

Real Scenarios, Real Results

How AVADesk keeps your appointment book full — without interrupting a single service.

💅

Saturday Rush Hour

It's Saturday at 11 AM and every tech is with a client. Six calls come in about booking. Ava answers every one, books them in for available slots, and sends confirmations — all without a single tech looking up.

🌙

After-Hours Planning

A client finishes dinner out on a Friday night and decides she wants her nails done before her event Sunday. She calls at 10 PM. Ava answers, finds an opening, and books her in.

🎄

Holiday Season Surge

December is the busiest month for nail salons in Canada. Holiday party season drives a booking flood. Ava handles the surge so no client misses out on their pre-holiday appointment.
