The problem
There are 50,400 registered hair, barbering and beauty businesses in the UK, and around 81% employ fewer than five people [1] [2]. In a shop that size there is no one on a desk: the phone rings while you're cutting, and a customer who can't book with you books down the road. The sector grew by a net 1,088 premises in the first half of 2025, with barbershops among those leading the growth [3], so there is always another chair nearby.
How a call goes
No menus, no “press 1.” Remi just talks, and the caller can interrupt naturally, the way they would with a person.
If a caller has a complaint or a question Remi can't answer, it takes a detailed message and alerts the shop, or puts the call straight through to whoever is in charge.

Remi books, moves and cancels appointments live in Google Calendar or Acuity, by phone or over WhatsApp.
