Your front desk, without the front desk.
Turn on what helps. Only pay for what you use.
AI Receptionist
Answers your calls. Books new appointments, moves or cancels existing ones, answers questions about prices and parking, and hands the call to you when someone asks for a person. 100 call minutes included each month.
Phone Assistant
An automated phone line. Callers hear their appointment, reschedule, cancel, or tell you they're running late. Calls and texts included.
Reminder texts
Texts 24 hours and 3 hours before every appointment, to cut last-minute cancellations and no-shows.
Feedback
Ten minutes after checkout, clients rate the service, your timing, and the shop.
Check-In
A tablet by the door. Walk-ins and booked clients check themselves in, and your team is notified.
Reception
Run the front desk from an iPad: today's calendar, walk-ins, and checkout at the counter, in cash or on your card reader.
Who we are
Built behind the chair, not in a tech office.
Openings is built by the owner of Eddie's Edition, a working hair salon in Pasadena — by people who've chased no-shows and answered the phone mid-cut. We run our own shop on it every day.

FAQ
Questions, answered straight.
Do my clients need an app or an account?
No. They book from your link and confirm with a code we text them.
What does it actually cost?
Free for one person. Texts: 50 free, then $0.02 each in packs from $10. No per-booking fee. Card payments are optional: powered by Stripe at Stripe's standard rates, plus a 0.3% Openings payout fee. Add-ons are optional, from $29/mo (Phone Assistant). Pro is $25/mo, or $20/mo billed annually, once you add a team member.
Do I have to take cards?
No. Check out every visit in Openings whether clients pay cash, with an app, or by card. When you want cards, connect Stripe for Tap to Pay on iPhone, a card reader, or a deposit at booking.
I'm on Booksy (or Square, Vagaro…). Can I switch?
Yes. The setup assistant brings over your services, prices, hours, and staff from your page or screenshots. Your client list and existing bookings don't move over.
Does it work on Android?
The owner and staff apps run on iPhone and Android. Tap to Pay is iPhone only; on Android, pair a card reader.
Will my page show other shops?
No. Openings is not a marketplace — your page shows only you.

Yes. Every team member has their own schedule, services, prices, and durations, and clients pick who they book with.
What does a team cost?
Pro is $25/mo, or $20/mo billed annually, with unlimited team members. Each member gets the Openings Staff app.
