For barber shops

Chairs full.Books shut.

Remi answers your phone by the second ring, books the cut, and keeps the walk-in queue moving. You stay with the client in the chair.

Your customers can see the queue before they leave the house.

Half your day arrives without an appointment, then stands by the door guessing. Put the live queue on your booking site and they check the wait from the sofa, then walk in when it's worth walking in.

  • Your site shows the wait, the chairs cutting, and who's next
  • They join the queue from their phone without ringing you
  • Or you add a walk-in at the counter in two taps
  • Everyone gets a text when they're next, so they can wander off
  • Bookings still hold their slot; the queue works around them

Everything that happens between cuts, handled.

The phone that rings mid-fade. The one who didn't show. The three waiting by the door.

Answers while your hands are busy
Every call answered by the second ring, on your day off and at midnight. Remi knows your cuts, your prices and your barbers, and books into the chair that's free.

Deposits that hold the slot
Put a deposit on the cuts that get ghosted, Saturday fades and hot-towel shaves, and leave the quick ones free. Remi texts a link to pay it, and it comes off the bill at the till.

A diary built on chairs
One column per chair, not per “resource”. Drag a client from Dean to Ash when a chair opens up and the client gets told. Cash rings into the same till, and chair rent settles itself.

Remi · your AI receptionist

You can't stop mid-fade to answer the phone. Remi can.

Barber shops miss more calls than any trade we've measured, for the obvious reason, both hands are busy. This is the call you played at the top, written out.

  • Knows every cut, price and duration on your list
  • Books by barber or by “whoever's free”
  • Answers at midnight and on your day off
  • Never says someone's booked unless they are

Before you ask

Does it sound robotic?

No. It's a premium human voice, four to pick from, and it says your prices and times the way a person would rather than reading them out like a computer. Play the call at the top and judge it yourself.

What if it can't handle something?

It takes a message and texts you straight away. It never guesses, and it never tells someone they're booked unless the booking is actually in your diary.

Do I keep my number?

Yes. Remi answers on a divert, so nothing changes for your regulars. You can send it every call, or only the ones you don't reach.

What about the bookings already in my diary?

We move them across, along with your client list and any deposits you've taken. Free, by hand, out of hours, with your old system still running until you say otherwise.

How long until it's live?

An afternoon at the counter. Your booking site is ready to publish the same day.
