AI Front Desk for Barbershops

An AI front desk answers haircut pricing, walk-in policy, and which-barber questions from your shop's own site, and hands scalp or skin concerns to a barber.

A barbershop's AI front desk answers what a customer wants before they walk in: what a haircut costs, whether the shop takes walk-ins or appointments only, and which barber to ask for. It reads those answers from the shop's own website and doesn't invent a price it can't find there. If someone asks about a scalp or skin condition, it stops and offers to connect the customer with a barber, with their OK.

What it answers

The recurring questions: the price of a haircut, beard trim, or combo service; whether the shop is walk-in or appointment-only; which barber specializes in a particular style; and the shop's hours. The assistant pulls these from the shop's published pages, and every answer names the page it came from.

What it won't guess at

A question about a scalp condition, a skin irritation, or a reaction to a product doesn't get an answer from the assistant. That boundary is a standing rule in how the assistant is built, and a second model checks every answer against the published pages before it ships; separately, a deterministic crisis-and-hazard check runs in code before any model sees a message. Every answer also gets checked a second time against the shop's own content before it goes out, and if it can't verify something, it says it doesn't know and offers a person.

How it gets on the site

Installation is one line of code, on whatever the shop's site already runs — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify, Google Tag Manager, or Framer. No rebuild. A shop without a website can run the assistant at its own link with a QR code by the register instead. The owner decides what it answers and where it routes people, can change that from a dashboard, and can see whether it's live, what's being asked, and which leads still need a follow-up.

What it costs

$99 a month, flat, for one business and one website. Month to month, cancel any time, no per-conversation charge, no tiers. As the product's own pricing page says: "A full-time front desk runs $4,000+ a month—and sleeps at night. The other tools quote their price on a sales call. This one is printed."

The private working preview is free, built in under 24 hours, no card required to see it. Nothing goes live until the owner approves it, and approval starts a 30-day free trial — the card only gets entered then.

What it looks like in practice

A customer texts at 6:50 a.m. before the shop opens: "How much is a haircut and beard trim together, and do I need an appointment?" The assistant answers: "A cut-and-beard combo is $40 (Services page). We take both walk-ins and appointments. Want me to have someone text you back to set a time?" If the customer instead asks, "I've got a red patch on my scalp, does that mean anything," the assistant doesn't guess. It offers to pass the question to a barber, if the customer is willing to share their name and number.

Common questions

Can it tell a customer which barber to book for a specific style?

Yes, if the shop has that on its site. If it isn't published, the assistant says it doesn't know instead of guessing.

What happens with a question about a scalp or skin issue?

It doesn't answer those. A standing safety rule has it offer to connect the customer with a barber instead of answering, and every answer is separately checked against the business's published pages before it ships.

Do we need a new booking system to use this?

No. It installs as one line of code on the shop's current site and hands off names and numbers to the shop when someone wants to book or talk to a person. Try it free: a private preview of your shop's own front desk, built in under 24 hours, no card, at askmy.business.
