Why would a nail salon use an AI receptionist?
+
Miya answers your nail salon phone while technicians work, books gels, acrylics, dip powder and pedicures with the right technician and length, adds time for soak-offs and nail art, and records bridal and group enquiries. That way, nail clients are not tempted to ring a different nail bar.
Can it time nail appointments properly?
+
Yes. You set how long each nail service takes for each technician, such as a refill, a full set or a gel pedicure. Miya asks about soak-offs, repairs and art, then books a slot that fits, so technicians are not rushed and clients are not kept waiting.
How does it handle bridal and group nail bookings?
+
Miya records the date, number of people and the nail services wanted, explains your deposit rule as you have written it, and books technicians side by side when your calendar allows. Larger groups are passed to you to confirm before anything is locked in.
Will it answer nail health questions?
+
No. Questions about lifting, damaged nails, infections or product reactions are recorded for a technician to answer. Miya never gives nail health advice, and anyone describing a severe reaction such as facial swelling or breathing trouble is told to call 000 at once.
Does it connect to nail salon booking software?
+
Not yet. Nail appointments go into Google Calendar or Calendly, and RingOut keeps a short note of every nail booking call with the service, technician and art requests, which your team can add to a salon app if you use one.
How much does an AI receptionist for nail salons cost?
+
A solo nail technician can run on Starter, $49 a month for 60 minutes of calls. Busy nail bars usually choose Growth, $149 monthly, which records nail calls and covers 250 minutes. All nail salon plans exclude GST, and setup is free.
