AI lead qualification is overhyped at the macro level and underused at the workflow level. For a NZ hair salon, that gap is where the actual ROI lives – and where most of our work happens.

Sector reality
Hair salons need software built around their week, not against it.
- Salons run on a fully booked chair, and every gap in the calendar is revenue that doesn't come back.
- Rebooking, no-show follow-ups, and client reminders are what keep a salon's calendar full without constant manual chasing.
How we build AI lead qualification for hair salons.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for a hair salon business, so value lands before the build is finished. AI scores your leads.

Questions
FAQ
How long does AI lead qualification take to ship for hair salons?
We aim for a working pilot inside 4-6 weeks – narrow scope, real hair salons data, measurable outcome. From there it's another 6-8 weeks of hardening before you'd consider it production. Full rollouts (multiple sites, multiple teams) typically land in 3-4 months.
Are there hidden costs we should plan for?
Three to know about: model/API spend (which we set up under your own account, not ours, so you see and control it), any new SaaS subscriptions we recommend, and your team's time during rollout. We surface all three in the quote so there are no surprises.
What's the realistic outcome for hair salons?
Sales reps spend 70% less time on dead-end conversations. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
Who owns the code and the model setup?
You do, on delivery. We deploy AI lead qualification into your own cloud account where possible, with the model setup, prompts, evals and integration code all checked into a repo you own. Claude sits in your account too – we don't operate it from ours.
