FOR ESTHETICIANS
Built for the treatment room.
The AI receptionist and business OS made for solo and small-studio estheticians. It answers the phone during a facial, books packages and memberships, tracks skin history and contraindications, and runs the business side you didn't go to school for.
Used by solo estheticians · 15-minute setup · No long-term contracts

of consent and contraindication intake done before the first touch
You can't pick up mid-extraction.
Mask on, steam running, timer ticking, client zoned out. The phone rings. Voicemail. A new facial client — $150 a visit, potential member — books somewhere else.
For most treatment rooms, that's 5–10 missed new-client inquiries a week. Memberships compound. A missed inquiry isn't a missed visit; it's a missed year of visits.
And the paperwork: intake forms on paper, contraindication questions asked verbally, consent signed on a clipboard, receipts piled up for a monthly reconciliation that never happens.
SalonSub AI picks up the slack. All of it.
Answers every call. Books every facial.
The AI picks up in one ring, in your studio's voice. It books facials, peels, microcurrent, dermaplaning, waxing, and package consults — and can take a deposit on the first visit.
- Books facials, peels, treatments, memberships, and consults
- Deposits on new-client visits and longer services
- Sends you a transcript and summary of every call

Skin history, meds, and consent. Before she arrives.
New clients fill out intake on their phone before they walk in. Retinoid use? Accutane history? Herpetic history before a peel? It's flagged on the profile before you open the room. Consent stored as PDF.
- Digital intake and consent signed before arrival
- Medication, retinoid, and contraindication flags on every profile
- Progress photos per visit with signed consent
Feature illustration
Peel series and memberships that rebook themselves.
Package visits count down automatically. Membership clients get booked on their cadence. Four-week series reminders go out on their own. You don't track it — the app does.
- Package visit counters per client, auto-decremented
- Monthly membership billing via Stripe, auto-recharged
- 4/6/8-week series reminders with protocol notes
Feature illustration
Last visit's protocol. This visit's plan.
Which exfoliation, which mask, which serum, which settings. Over-the-counter product recommendations she took home. Reaction notes. It's all there on the profile so you pick up exactly where you left off.
- Per-visit protocol notes and retail recommendations
- Before/after photos across the treatment arc
- Retail attach-rate tracking per client
Feature illustration
30-second checkout. Retail upsell included.

"I turned on the AI Friday night. Sunday morning I had 4 new facial bookings in my app. That's it — I'm converted."

"My membership retention doubled once I stopped handling the billing myself. It just… happens now."

Pricing that pays for itself in one membership.
Every plan includes the AI receptionist, online booking, payments, and digital intake. One missed new-client inquiry costs more than a month of software.

Straight answers, no fluff.
Yes — and it sounds like your studio, not a generic robot. During setup, you pick a voice, a greeting, and how it should describe your services. Most clients can't tell it's AI. The ones who figure it out are usually impressed.
You decide. The AI can transfer to your cell, take a message, send you an SMS summary, or offer to text a booking link. You're in control of every escape hatch.
No. Keep your existing number. We forward calls from your number to the AI in seconds. You can turn forwarding on and off from your phone — answer calls yourself when you're free, let the AI handle them when you're not.
You are live in 15 minutes. You enter your services, connect Google Calendar, upload 10 photos, and forward your number.
Yes. It's a free service. If you're on Square, Vagaro, Fresha, or GlossGenius, our team will import them free for your clients, services, and appointment history.
Export everything — clients, appointments, financials — to CSV with one click. No lock-in, no fees, no guilt trip. We earn your business every month.
No. You pay Stripe's published rates directly. We make money on software, not on your sales.
Beauty services aren't covered by HIPAA, but we treat client data like it is. All data is encrypted at rest and in transit, hosted in US data centers, and scoped per studio — no one at another studio, or at SalonSub, can see your book. SOC 2 Type II is in progress.
We support Stripe Terminal (recommended) and Square Terminal. If you already have a Square reader, keep it — we integrate with Square's Connect API for in-person payments. Online payments always run on Stripe for reconciliation.
Yes. Each operator can be set to commission-split (configurable %, optionally tiered) or flat booth rent. Monthly commission statements are generated automatically as PDFs.
Not in v1. But we are happy to implement it for you. SalonSub AI is built and priced for single-location 1–4 chair studios. If you're multi-location, contact us.
Not yet, and it's deliberate. We generate three platform-tuned posts every morning with images and captions, and you copy-paste them yourself. It's a 90-second task that avoids Instagram API rule changes breaking your marketing overnight. Auto-posting is on the roadmap when Meta's API becomes dependable.
No. Trial is free. First month is the first month. Hardware is the only one-time cost, and only if you want in-person card-present payments.
Month-to-month. Cancel anytime in the app, no email required.
Your next facial client is on the phone.
