The short version: a flat monthly plan instead of commission on new clients, an AI receptionist on every channel, and a founder on the line while you move across. No switching fee, no contract lock-in.
Fresha's default plan is free at the seat level but takes a marketplace commission on bookings from new clients who find you through the Fresha consumer app, plus card processing fees on top. Co Sweyt charges a flat monthly plan instead. There's no marketplace, no commission, and your customer list stays yours.
When someone books with you on Co Sweyt, the relationship is direct, no marketplace standing between you.
Same number every month. The salon that has a busy month doesn't get a bigger Fresha invoice for the trouble.
Stripe at 1.5% per transaction; no platform tax on top.
The thing that surprises owners coming across is that Co Sweyt is more than a bookings app. Remi answers the phone, reads the WhatsApps, replies to the Instagram DMs, and handles the web chat, in your voice, with the same memory of the customer everywhere.
Remi never invents a slot or a price. Bookings come from the live calendar, prices come from your services table.
Per-stylist commissions, till, payouts, all in one screen. The payouts page replaces 90 minutes of weekly admin with about 90 seconds.
Mini-site, rewards portal, booking confirmations, all in your wordmark. Co Sweyt sits in the footer in mono, half opacity. The customer meets the salon, not us.
Migration from Fresha to Co Sweyt today is hands-on, founder-led, not a self-service import button. We hop on a call, look at your Fresha account together, and move what matters across by hand: customers, booking history, gift card balances, deposit holds. The salon keeps trading through the move, no day-zero blackout.
Founder, you, screen-share on your Fresha account. We agree what to move and what to retire.
Names, phone, email, last visit, last service. Booking history attached to the right customer record.
A couple of days where Fresha and Co Sweyt run in parallel; once Co Sweyt is taking the bookings, Fresha goes read-only.
We do the work in the evenings or quiet hours so the salon doesn't lose a day. Free, included in onboarding.
We've answered the same questions enough times that it's worth writing them down. If yours isn't here, email founders@cosweyt.com and we'll add it.
Check your Fresha terms. Plans we've seen are month-to-month with no notice; we'll help you wind down once Co Sweyt is taking the bookings.
They'll get the next reminder from your salon's number, in your wordmark, not from Fresha. No re-booking, no re-registration.
Fresha-app reviews stay on Fresha. Co Sweyt sends post-visit nudges to Google and your own preferred review surfaces so the next batch grows where you want them.
Carried across by hand during migration. We reconcile against your last Fresha statement so nothing's lost.
Most salons we've moved went from kickoff call to Co Sweyt taking calls within a week. Bigger lists or unusual setups take a few days longer.
Type a number. Remi calls in under a minute, roleplaying a small salon, same product your customers would hear, end-to-end. No signup, no card.
A 30-minute walk-through with one of our founders, your salon's setup, your services, your accent, your voice card. You leave with Remi live on your number.
