Zolie

The AI receptionist for salons.

You're halfway through a foil. The phone rings over the blow dryers. That caller wanted a balayage this weekend — and she just booked it somewhere else. Zolie (formerly Callie) answers in your own cloned voice, quotes your services, and books her straight into your booking platform — Square, Wix, Fresha, GlossGenius, Boulevard, and more — while your hands stay where they belong.

Behind the chair, every call is a coin flip

A stylist's day is back-to-back: gloved hands in color, scissors mid-section, dryers drowning out the ringtone. Walk-over to the phone and you lose the client in the chair; let it ring and you lose the one calling. Most salon callers won't leave a voicemail — they work down their Google results until a human (or something that sounds like one) picks up.

For solo stylists and booth renters there is no front desk. Every missed call during working hours is a cut, a color, or a regular quietly slipping to the salon next door.

What Zolie does for a salon

  • Answers when you can't — only when you're with a client or don't pick up within ~15 seconds. Between appointments, your phone rings like normal.
  • Speaks in your voice — cloned from a 20-second recording, so regulars hear you, not a call center.
  • Knows your menu — cuts, color, treatments, durations, and prices come straight from your booking platform and website.
  • Books real appointments — she reads live availability and writes confirmed bookings into your booking platform — Square, Wix, Fresha, GlossGenius, Boulevard, and more — during the call.
  • Filters the junk — robocalls and spam never reach you; real calls arrive as a text recap with who called, what they wanted, and what booked.

Hear her before you buy anything

Pick the salon preset on our live demo and call the number from your own phone — you'll be talking to Zolie in under a minute, no signup and no card. Then imagine her covering your line on a double-booked Saturday.

Pricing built for a chair, not a chain

Zolie starts at $49/mo with 10 real customer calls included, or $149/mo for unlimited — a fraction of a human answering service, and she works nights and Sundays. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial and comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. One saved color appointment usually pays the month.

Salon owners ask us

What is an AI receptionist for a salon?
An AI receptionist is software that answers your salon's phone with a natural voice when you can't — mid-cut, mid-color, after close — answers questions about services and pricing, and books the caller into your calendar. Zolie does this in a clone of your own voice and writes confirmed appointments directly into your booking calendar.
Can it handle service-specific questions, like color pricing?
Yes. Zolie learns your service menu — names, durations, and prices — from your booking platform and website. If a caller asks something she genuinely can't answer (like a correction-color consult), she takes the details and texts you a recap so you can follow up between clients.
How much does an AI receptionist for a salon cost?
Zolie starts at $49/month (Starter — 10 real customer calls included, then $2.50 per additional customer call; spam is screened free) or $149/month for Essential with unlimited customer calls. Both plans book live into your calendar and start with a 14-day free trial. Human answering services typically run $300–600/month and can't see your calendar.
Does it work with my salon’s existing phone number?
Yes. You keep your number. Your phone forwards to Zolie only when you're busy or don't pick up within about 15 seconds — when you're between clients, you still answer like normal. She catches the calls that would have hit voicemail.
What if my salon doesn’t use Square?
No problem — Zolie books directly into your calendar on Square Appointments, Wix Bookings, GlossGenius, Boulevard, Vagaro, Fresha, and more. Pick your platform at signup and connect it right after checkout.

The next call your salon misses could have been a booking.
