Hair salons and barbers in Canada. An AI that answers the salon phone while you’re with a client

With a client in the chair, Vicem answers and takes down what the caller wants.

In Canada, you can keep your number and forward the calls you miss, or get a local number in minutes. Callers there usually speak English and French, and Vicem answers each one in their own language.

What your callers ask

  • “Do you have anything Saturday afternoon?”
  • “How much is a cut and color?”
  • “Can I move my appointment to Thursday?”
  • “Do you take walk-ins?”

How it works in Canada

  1. Keep your number

    Forward the calls you miss from the phone you already use. Your callers dial the number they know.

  2. Get a local number

    A local number in Canada in minutes, with no paperwork, for your website, card and signs.

Forwarding codes for your phone company

Callers in Canada usually speak English and French. Vicem answers each caller in their own language, in any of 37 languages, and says it’s an AI in that language too.

After hours and urgent calls

People call when you’re closed to plan their week. Vicem answers in the evening too, so every request is waiting for you in the morning.

For a real emergency, you can have Vicem tell callers to hang up and dial 911.

Appointments and requests

Vicem takes the appointment request: the service, the name and the times that suit them. You confirm the time, so your chair is never double-booked by a call.

An example call. Sam is an example name; yours says your name.
