An AI front desk for salons and barbershops
You can't answer the phone with foils in or clippers running. Ava keeps a list of the caller's name, number, and request on your desk so they don't slip away, and you confirm the appointment yourself when your hands are free. Texting callers back is coming soon.
Try free for 14 days, then $49/mo. Cancel anytime.
Card required at checkout, $0 due today. Cancel before day 14 and you won't be charged. Stripe emails a reminder before the trial ends.
What a missed call looks like
A Saturday with a full chair and a phone that keeps ringing.
- Ava: Hi — sorry we missed you. This is Ava at the salon. What's your name, and what can we help with?
- Caller: Dana. Need a cut and color.
- Ava: Got it. What day and time works best for you?
- Caller: Thursday after 4?
- Ava: Thanks — I've passed this to the team. The owner will text you to confirm the details.

Which helpers fit a salon
Ava
Keeps a list of callers' name, number, and request on your desk. You add them for now. Texting back missed calls is coming soon.
Leo
Writes a Google review request after you mark the visit done, and drafts replies to reviews.
Marcus
Writes a slow-weekday text for clients who opted in to promos, plus weekly social captions.
What it won't do
- Ava does not read or write to your booking software, so she never books a slot — you confirm.
- Promos only go to clients who agreed to receive them, and every promo includes STOP to opt out.
- Nothing sends without your rules: quiet hours, STOP opt-outs, and optional approval before anything goes out.
For shops across the Central Valley
TaskStaffed is built for owner-run local businesses like the ones in Fresno, Clovis, Modesto, Stockton, Merced, Visalia, Tulare, Hanford, Turlock, and Bakersfield. Everything runs online, so it works anywhere in the US. Set your time zone and quiet hours once, and reminders and promos only go out during your hours.
Questions from salons & barbershops
Will Ava double-book me?
No. Ava never books anything. She collects the request and the owner confirms, so your calendar stays yours.
Can I approve messages first?
Yes. Turn off automatic sending and every reminder, invite, and promo waits as a draft until you tap approve.
Coming soon: texting your customers. Until then, leads, reminders, drafts, and your 5 PM update show up on your desk and by email.
