    A salon's WhatsApp, screen by screen

    A regular asks for Saturday with Mei

    Volty reads Mei's calendar, offers her free slots as buttons and books the one the customer taps. Then it sends the deposit QR code and the salon's deposit rule.

    Volty offers a regular three Saturday slots with Mei as buttons, books the 2.30pm she taps, and sends the deposit rule with the salon's PayNow QR code.

    A customer whose booking moved

    Ask Volty for an automation that checks the calendar on a schedule and messages a customer whose booking moved; Volty writes it, you approve it. The customer gets the new time with a one-tap confirm.

    Volty's flow for an automation that checks the calendar every 15 minutes, beside the approved template telling Joanne her appointment moved to 3.30pm, with That works and Pick another time buttons.

    Bringing back regulars who stopped coming

    Ask Volty for an automation that labels customers whose last visit was more than 60 days ago. The owner sends them one approved template, and Volty books the ones who reply.

    One approved template, sent once, to one audience. Afterwards, one click turns the people who replied, stayed silent, failed or ignored it into a segment and drafts the next template broadcast to them. Replies come back to the inbox as ordinary conversations.

    The broadcast composer with the Not seen in 60 days segment of 214 contacts chosen and the template preview, beside a regular's reply asking for Saturday and Volty offering slots.

    A birthday-month offer, with the cost shown before sending

    Before the owner sends a broadcast, Volty shows the estimated Meta cost for the audience. Each message carries the customer's first name, with a fallback when a contact has none.

    The preflight card before sending to 86 contacts, with an estimated Meta cost of about S$8.06 for Singapore, above the results showing sent, delivered, read and replied.

    A package question, and a refund question

    Volty answers how many sessions are left from the customer's own record. A refund request goes to the owner as a one-tap question, and Volty replies with the owner's answer.

    Volty answers how many facials are left, then asks the owner about a refund with three one-tap answers: approve the refund, decline, or reply herself.

    Teaching Volty a house rule

    When the owner corrects a reply, Volty applies the correction as a rule, with a Revert; an edit to Volty's written instructions waits for an admin.

    Volty saves the owner's correction, that deposits are not refundable within 24 hours of the appointment, as a rule for everyone, with a Revert button.

    What Volty does and what your team does

    Volty

    • Books, moves and cancels appointments in your team's calendar.
    • Sends the deposit QR code and the deposit rule you set.
    • Answers package questions from each customer's own record.
    • Runs the automations you ask it to write and approve, such as telling a customer that their booking moved.
    • Books the regulars who reply to a broadcast.

    Your team

    • Checks that deposits arrived.
    • Decides refunds and anything else your instructions keep for a person.
    • Chooses who gets each broadcast and presses send.

    When a person takes over

    Volty passes a conversation to someone on your team, and alerts them on WhatsApp. For a decision only the owner can make, Volty asks your team questions with one-tap answers before following up with the customer. Any reply from your team pauses Volty in that conversation for 30 minutes, and each further reply extends the pause.

    Your booking system and Volty

    Volty connects to Google Calendar.

    • your team's calendars
    • events and free slots

    Volty writes

    • new bookings
    • moved and cancelled bookings

    Volty connects to WESS.

    Secure by default

    • Volty starts in draft mode. Every reply waits for someone on your team to send it, until you choose to let Volty answer on its own.
    • Volty connects only to the systems an admin approves.
    • When someone on your team tells Volty a rule, Volty applies it at once, with a card and a Revert where it was asked. Changes to Volty's written instructions wait for an admin to approve them.
