An AI voice receptionist for service businesses

Every call answered 24/7. Every booking made.

An AI voice receptionist that picks up every call — between appointments, after 9pm, all weekend. It checks your live calendar, books the appointment, and transfers callers to your team when they ask. When the human line is busy and a caller leaves voicemail, the agent transcribes it and emails it to you in seconds — read the message or play the recording directly from the email, then call back.

Where the front desk leaks revenue

Half your calls land while your hands are full.

The voicemail black hole

Most callers don't leave a voicemail. The ones who do hang up before recording. Either way, the booking is gone.

After-hours and weekends

Your reception closes at 6. The booking intent doesn't. Saturday-evening browsers find a competitor with the lights on.

Calls ringing out while the hands are full

Half your inbound calls arrive mid-service. Three rings, no answer, the caller moves on.

Receptionists juggle the phone and the floor

The team you have can't be on the floor AND the phone. Every minute on a call is a minute off the work.

What the agent does

An AI receptionist that picks up the slack.

Built for any service business that books a chair, a room, or a provider's time — salons, spas, wellness clinics, barbers, nail studios, professional services, and beyond.

When a call needs a human, the agent hands off without dropping the caller.

Q3 2026 — Coming next

The AI-first booking system.

Most booking platforms were built before voice agents existed. They bolt AI on through integrations — one team for the agent, another for the schedule, an API translation layer in between. Appointed is the inverse: a booking platform designed from day one around the agent. Every workflow — calendar, clients, reminders, follow-ups, no-show recovery — built so the agent can operate it as fluently as a human can.

  • A live calendar the agent reads and writes. Real-time availability — bookings, cancellations, reschedules sync the moment they happen, no API hop.
  • One client record across phone, web, and the front desk. Caller history, booking history, call transcripts, and voicemails all anchor to the same record. The agent recognizes the regulars.
  • AI-orchestrated workflows out of the box. Waitlist routing, recurring bookings, per-provider policies, no-show recovery, smart reminders — every flow built for the agent, not bolted on.
  • One team, one contract, one CAD bill. One ticket when something breaks, one onboarding, no vendor-to-vendor finger-pointing.
Get on the waitlist

Built in Canada

A small team, a real phone number, and a contract that doesn't surprise you.

  • PIPEDA-aware by design. Caller audio and transcripts are processed by named US providers (ElevenLabs for voice, Twilio for telephony, Resend for email). Full processor disclosure in our Privacy Policy.
  • CAD billing, no FX surprises. Stripe at standard rates when you take card payments.
  • Built and operated in Canada by Laneway Solutions. Support tickets close in Eastern Time.
  • Migration is included for launch customers. We run it, audit it, you sign off on the final numbers.

Common questions

What buyers ask.

Will the agent replace my receptionist?

No. The goal is to handle the calls your team can't reach in time. Routine bookings, after-hours, and overflow ring-outs go to the agent. Complex requests transfer live to your staff.

Does it integrate with the booking software I already use?

Where the platform supports it, yes. We build a direct integration so the agent can read your calendar and write bookings back. If your platform has an API, we can usually integrate.

What languages can it speak?

70+ languages including Mandarin, Punjabi, Tagalog, Hindi, Urdu, Tamil, Spanish, French, Arabic, Italian, Korean, Vietnamese, Polish, Russian, and Portuguese. The agent detects the caller's language automatically. Cantonese is understood, but replies are in Mandarin.

Can callers cancel or reschedule by phone?

Yes. The agent looks up the booking, confirms identity, applies your cancellation policy, and rebooks if the caller wants a new slot.

How long does it take to install?

Two to four weeks from kickoff to handling live calls — Discovery, Configure, Launch, then refine based on real conversations.

What happens if the agent gets stuck?

Two layers of fallback. First, the agent asks once more in simpler phrasing. Second, it transfers live to your team. If the transfer fails, it captures a voicemail with transcription.

What's included beyond the agent itself?

A custom client portal with reporting and deployment guides, voicemail transcription with audio playback, integration with your existing systems, number preservation, daily and weekly reports, and real-time quality checks.

When does the full booking platform arrive?

Q3 2026. Appointed is an AI-first booking system designed around the agent — calendar, client records, reminders, no-show recovery, all built so AI can operate them. Tell us in the lead form to be on the waitlist and we'll share rollout details as they're confirmed.
