Bookings that stop the phone ringing at 6pm

Salon booking software exists to answer one question without a phone call: when can I come in? Pietools shows the slots that are actually free - considering the chairs, the staff member and the length of the service - and books against them. The customer's history and what they had last time sit next to the appointment, so the next visit is informed rather than a blank page.

Availability that knows your staff

Slots account for which person is working, what they are busy with, and how long the service takes. Two bookings cannot land on one pair of hands.

Reminders before the appointment

A reminder goes out ahead of time, which is what turns a no-show into a booked slot.

The customer, not just the appointment

Past visits, what was done, and preferences are attached to the person, so whoever is at the desk knows the history.

Works for salons, spas and studios

Services carry their own duration and price, and the same booking screen works whether it is a haircut, a colouring job or a spa package.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Add your services with the time each one takes and what it costs.

  2. Step 2

    Add staff with the days and hours they work.

  3. Step 3

    Share your booking link or take appointments from the app, and let reminders go out.

Questions people ask

Can customers book on their own?

Yes. Share the booking link and they pick a free slot themselves. Staff can also book on the counter for someone calling in.

What if two people want the same slot?

The slot is held as soon as it is booked, so the second person sees it as taken and picks another.

Does it send reminders?

Yes, ahead of the appointment. Reminders need internet because WhatsApp does - the booking itself does not.

Can I charge a deposit or advance?

An advance can be recorded against the booking, which is how a no-show deposit gets handled without a separate register.
