Aroha AI

An AI receptionist for salons on Fresha.

Aroha answers the calls you miss while you are with a client. Fresha syncs with Google Calendar, so once both are connected Aroha sees your appointments as busy time, and its bookings show in Fresha as blocked time. It can also text the caller your Fresha booking link.

Connect Fresha

  • In Fresha, sync your calendar with Google Calendar.
  • In Aroha, connect the same Google Calendar.
  • Forward the calls you miss to your Aroha number.

What Aroha does

  • Answers calls in your salon’s name while you are busy.
  • Never offers a time that clashes with a Fresha appointment.
  • Texts the caller your Fresha booking link to choose the service and stylist.

What it does not do yet

  • It does not create the appointment as a Fresha booking; it shows as blocked time until you confirm it.
