AI receptionist for salons
Every call that goes to voicemail is a booking at the salon down the street. Aira books appointments, answers service questions, and confirms reschedules while your stylists are with clients.

WHY THIS MATTERS
Every missed call in salons is a competitor's win
Your stylists can't put down a client mid-color to answer the phone. The booking goes to voicemail, then to the salon down the street. 62% of callers who reach voicemail never call back, and 78% of leads choose the first business that responds. For salons, that means the next caller you miss is the next $120 cut-and-color or $400 hair-extension job your competitor takes. Aira answers every call in 0.4 seconds, 24/7, in 31 languages — so the caller you would have missed becomes the customer you keep.
VS HIRING A RECEPTIONIST
Three ways to handle calls in salons.
Two of them want a contract, a setup fee, or a sick day. The other costs less than your phone bill.
