Services and realistic durations
Set the services customers can book, with pricing, duration and the details they need before choosing an appointment.
Built around the full booking journey
Booking tools designed for the way braiders and hair businesses actually work.
Set up services, show appointment times that can genuinely fit, collect deposits, keep customer details together and manage the work after a booking is made.
Short answer
Braider Booking AI combines service setup, real availability, online booking, Stripe-connected deposits, customer records, confirmations and reminders, team access, storefront tools and a Booking Guide in one business workspace.
Core features
From service selection to appointment follow-up.
Each part of the platform is designed to reduce manual booking admin without taking control away from the business.
Real appointment availability
Available times are calculated from working hours, blocked time, service duration and existing bookings instead of showing a generic open calendar.
Online customer booking
Customers can move from service selection to an available date and time through a structured booking flow on your own storefront.
Booking deposits with Stripe
When your business requires a deposit, customers complete payment through your connected Stripe account before the booking is confirmed.
Booking Guide
Customers can get answers using the services, prices, policies and preparation guidance saved by your business.
Customer records
Keep customer information and appointment details connected to the booking instead of rebuilding the history from messages.
Confirmations and reminders
Booking confirmations and scheduled reminders keep appointment information in front of customers after they book.
Customer self-service
Customers can use secure booking-management links for supported changes such as rescheduling or cancellation instead of relying on a manual message exchange.
Team and role-based access
Invite managers or staff to the business workspace without sharing the owner's login, with access controlled by their role.
How the pieces work together
A booking system should understand more than an empty hour on a calendar.
For a long hair appointment, the selected service affects what can fit into the day. Braider Booking AI uses the business's actual booking setup to move a customer through the journey.
