Beauty businesses lose bookings every time hands are busy, so Lunchbox answers your WhatsApp, offers open slots and books the client while you finish the set. It knows your treatments and prices, reminds clients before they arrive, and asks happy ones for a Google review after.
Mid-set, gloves on, three unread booking messages.
Clients who want 20:00 answers about 10:00 appointments.
A fully-booked look on Instagram but gaps in the actual diary.
Gel overlay vs full set vs fill: the agent quotes from your own menu and duration per treatment. Learn more →
A 30-minute brow appointment and a 2-hour full set get the right space in your diary automatically. Learn more →
Reminders before the appointment, a review ask after, and re-engagement messages when regulars go quiet. Learn more →
Yes, Lunchbox's AI receptionist books any treatment on your menu directly in the chat, using real open slots from your calendar and the right duration for each treatment.
That's the point: the agent answers immediately, quotes from your price list and books the slot while you work. You see every conversation afterwards and can take over any chat with one reply.
The agent tells clients your policies (deposits, cancellation windows) exactly as you write them, and reminders reduce no-shows; payment links via PayFast or Yoco can be sent in the same chat.
Both work: solo operators run everything from one calendar; studios give each tech their own hours and the agent books per person.
Lunchbox starts at R997 per month: AI receptionist, bookings, reminders and reviews on every plan.
