Let VantaPay answer your salon calls
Its AI books the stylist they ask for and texts the deposit link for color.
How it works
An incoming call on the Studio Rue line from Hannah, mobile. Accept is pressed and the screen turns into the in-call screen, with Vanta on the line.
Your line rings. Vanta picks up
Busy with a client or closed for the night, your calls still get answered.
The in-call screen with Live Captions: Hannah asks for a cut + blowout, Vanta checks the calendar, offers 4:00 PM, a «Booked» notification drops in and the call ends.
It talks, checks your calendar and books
You can read the call live, word by word, while it quotes the price and writes it in.
Cut + blowout · Hannah drops into the calendar at 4:00, and the text «Studio Rue: Hannah, your appointment is confirmed for Friday at 4:00 PM. Reply STOP to opt out.» arrives in Messages on the caller's phone.
On your calendar. Confirmed by text
The appointment lands in your day and the client gets the confirmation before they put the phone down.
What it does
- The deposit link, sent by itself
- In a new salon account Balayage asks $50 and Full Color $30 to hold the chair. Once the caller says yes to the amount, it texts the deposit link during the call, so a color chair isn't held without one.
- It asks the team when the hour is taken
- If she wants Saturday at 10 and it's taken, it can ask your team right then — and it says it's asking, not that it's done.
- Color times that fit
- It knows what your list says: Balayage is 180 minutes in a new account, Root Touch-up 90. It offers that stylist's open times for the service she asked for.
What it doesn’t do
It doesn't do color consultations by phone and doesn't move appointments. It is not a person and doesn't pretend to be one.
Questions
Who picks up the salon phone when every stylist is mid-color?
An AI can. It books the stylist they ask for, texts the deposit link on color by itself, and asks the team live when the hour they want is taken.
Can it require a deposit on color but not on cuts?
Deposits are set per service, so a cut books with nothing down and color sends the deposit link, by text, during the call.
What if the stylist they want is booked?
It offers that stylist's other open times. If the client wants an hour that's taken, it can ask your team live, and tells the caller it's asking, not that it's booked.
Can it reschedule an appointment?
No. It books new appointments; moving one stays with your front desk. That's on purpose, and worth knowing before you forward the line.
The next 'anything before the weekend?' call gets a stylist, a time and a deposit while you rinse.
