Try it
Don’t take my word for it. Call it.
This is the part most of this industry will not let you do. You can read a website all afternoon and learn nothing about whether an AI front desk sounds like something you would put in front of your customers.
A real line, answered by the same system I would build for you.
Things worth asking it
Do not be gentle. The useful test is whether it holds up when somebody tries to trip it, because your customers will.
“How much is a colour?”
It should refuse to quote a price that varies, and offer a consultation instead. If it makes a number up, you have learned something important about the whole category.
“Am I talking to a real person?”
It should say plainly that it is not. Anything evasive there is a problem, and it is the question your customers ask most.
“Book me Thursday at two.”
It should not claim to have booked anything it cannot see. It offers to text a booking link. A confident false confirmation is the fastest way to lose a customer.
“I need to speak to somebody.”
It should stop trying to help and take a message. An AI that will not let go of a caller who asked for a human is worse than voicemail.
After you have heard it
The demo is trained on a real salon, not on you.
Yours would know your services, your prices, your people, your hours, and the things you would never want it to say. That configuration is most of the work and it is why the build takes a conversation rather than a signup form.
