About ChairTender
Built so a missed call never has to mean an empty chair.
Every UK barbershop and salon loses business to calls that go unanswered mid-appointment, and to no-shows that leave a slot empty with no one to fill it. ChairTender answers those calls and messages on WhatsApp and text, checks the shop's real availability, and books the appointment there in the conversation, all without anyone having to stop what they're doing.
Missed-call recovery
A missed call gets an instant WhatsApp/text follow-up, turning a lost call into a conversation.
An AI receptionist
Answers questions, checks real availability, and books the appointment, confirming before it ever commits to anything.
Reminders and no-show cover
Automatic reminders before every appointment, plus optional card-on-file so a no-show isn't simply a loss.
A shop's own booking page
A clean, mobile-first page at the shop's own address, sharable anywhere, with no app to download.
What makes it different
- Flat monthly fee, no commission, ever. Unlike a marketplace booking app, a shop keeps the whole price of every appointment.
- No marketplace. A shop's booking page shows only that shop, never a competitor down the road.
- Your data stays yours. A shop can export its client list at any time, and have it erased on request.
- Built for the trade. Barbershops, braiding and nail salons, hair and beauty, any appointment-based UK shop, the language just adjusts to match what the shop offers.
Who's behind it
ChairTender is built and operated by Fluxt Ltd, a small UK company registered in England and Wales (company no. 17026767). We're in an early pilot stage, onboarding a small number of founding shops and salons by hand right now, with launch pricing and hands-on setup.
