For salons
The front desk that answers while you are mid-color.
Salon clients want a quick answer on services, timing and price, and they ask in the evening. Amfion answers from your menu, books against your real calendar, and hands anything unusual to you, on your website, by text, by email and on the phone.

What it handles
What Amfion handles for salons.
- Quotes services, durations and starting prices from the menu you approved, with the source shown.
- Books into your real calendar with per-service durations and a staff pool per service.
- Answers after hours, when clients actually message, and books the next open time.
- Sends email reminders and rebooking nudges from your settings; texts a consented waitlist client when a slot opens.
- Answers the phone, transfers to you with a brief, and takes a message when you cannot step away.
- Reaches you first for what you name: color corrections, complaints, anyone asking for the owner.
Why it matters
Where a salon loses the booking
A salon’s phone rings while both hands are busy, and the message a client leaves is often the last you hear from them. The enquiries that arrive after closing, when people finally have time to plan, wait until morning; some of them do not wait.
The questions are predictable: what a service costs, how long it takes, whether there is a time this week. Answering them instantly, from your own menu, and booking the time on the spot is the whole job of a front desk, and it does not need a person for most of it.
What does need a person is the judgment call: a color correction that must be seen first, a client who is unhappy, someone who wants the owner. Those should reach you, with the details already taken.
Setup
How you set it up.
Write the rules
“Color corrections are quoted in person.” “Anyone upset reaches me.” Sentences, not settings.
Pick a number, or forward yours
A local number in Settings → Phone, or forward missed calls from your existing line.
Turn on reminders and rebooking
Email reminders and rebooking nudges are one toggle each; reminders are off by default in case your calendar already sends them.
Questions
Answered plainly.
Can clients book with a specific stylist?
Services can be assigned to a group of stylists, and a booking lands on whoever in that group is free. Choosing a stylist by name in the conversation is not supported today; a request for a specific stylist can be routed to you to place.
Does it work for returning clients and new clients?
Yes. Returning clients are recognized by their phone number or email and can reschedule through their manage link; new clients get the questions you want asked before a first visit.
Does it send text reminders?
Not yet. Reminders and rebooking nudges are email, and are off by default in case your calendar already sends them. Text goes out only to waitlist clients who asked for it when a slot opens.
Can I keep my salon software?
As your system of record, yes. Amfion books on its own scheduler or into Cal.com, blocks around Google Calendar busy times and copies bookings there; it does not write into salon software today.
