One ordinary week
Three moments that cost you customers
None of them are your fault. All of them happen because the only way to book your salon is to reach a person.
10:04 pmTuesday
You are with your family and the phone buzzes
A customer wants an appointment tomorrow. You get up, leave the room, find a slot, write it in the book. By the time you sit back down the evening has moved on without you. This happens most nights.
8:15 amWednesday
You see the message you missed
You reply straight away. But she needed today, and at eleven last night she messaged the salon down the road instead. They answered. She is in their chair right now, and so are the next two years of her appointments.
4:30 pmSaturday
The chair is full and the phone will not stop
Answer it, and the woman in the chair sits with wet hair watching someone else get served. She notices. Do not answer, and that caller rings somewhere else. There is no right choice, and you make it twenty times a day.
The usual fix is to hire someone to answer the phone. For most salons that costs more than the bookings are worth.

Why WhatsApp
Nobody downloads an app to book a haircut.
Your customer will not install an app, create an account and remember a password to book with you. She will not do it, and asking her to is how booking apps quietly fail in India.
She already has WhatsApp open. So Kaarya lives there. There is nothing for her to learn and nothing for her to install, which means there is nothing for you to talk her through either.
Getting started
One conversation, and we do the rest
- We set it up for you. Your services, your prices, your staff, your opening hours. You do not install anything.
- Keep booking the way you do now. Run Kaarya alongside for the first two weeks. Nothing changes until you are happy with it.
- Your customers install nothing. They send a message. That is the whole thing.
- Free while we are starting out. We will tell you well in advance before that ever changes.

How it works
Booking, without the phone call
Kaarya sits on a WhatsApp number that belongs to your salon. Your customers message it. You get a diary that fills itself.
For your customer
Four taps, at any hour
- She messages your salonNo app, no account, no password. She already has WhatsApp.
- She picks what she wantsYour services at your prices. She can choose more than one, and Kaarya works out how long that takes.
- She picks a time that is genuinely freeChecked against your staff, their shifts and their days off. Never a time you cannot serve.
- She is bookedShe gets a confirmation. If she needs to change or cancel, she messages again and does it herself.
For you
Everything the day needs, in one screen
Today, first
The day opens on today. Who is coming, when, for what, with whom. Tap the arrows for any other day.
Money as it happens
What you have taken and what is still owed, so you are not adding up a diary at closing time.
Your staff
Shifts, days off and who does which service. Kaarya only offers times the right person can actually work.
Walk-ins
Someone comes in off the street. One tap and they are in the day, counted like everyone else.
Your week and month
What the salon took, and whether that is going up or down. Not a report you have to ask for.
It never goes silent
If anything is ever wrong on our side, your customers still get an answer telling them to phone you. Your salon never looks broken.
Why WhatsApp
Nobody downloads an app to book a haircut.
Your customer will not install an app, create an account and remember a password to book with you. Asking her to is how booking apps quietly fail in India.

About us
We build one thing, for one kind of business.
Kaarya is booking software for salons. That is all it does, and all it is meant to do.
Why we built it
Everyone kept giving salons the same two answers
We kept hearing the same thing from salon owners. Not that business was bad. That the phone never stopped, and that answering it meant choosing between the customer in the chair and the one on the line.
Every answer on offer was the same. Hire a receptionist, or put your salon on a booking platform your customers have to join. The first costs more than it returns for most salons. The second asks your customers to do something they will not do.
So we built the version that asks nothing of your customers at all.
What we hold to
Four things we will not trade away
Your customers install nothing
If using your salon requires a download, we have made your life harder, not easier.
It never goes silent
Whatever happens on our side, a customer who messages your salon always gets an answer. Your reputation is not ours to spend.
We set it up, not you
You run a salon. Learning software is not part of the deal.
Your data is yours
Your customers and your takings belong to your salon. We will never sell them or use them for anything else.
Who we are
A small team, working between India and Europe
One side of us builds and runs the software. The other is in salons every week, listening to what actually goes wrong.
We are early, and we say so. Every salon we take on now gets set up by hand, by us, and we stay close while it beds in. We can do that at this size, and it makes the product better.
If you want to talk to the people who build it, you can. There is no support queue to get through.

- We show you it workingOn your own phone, with your own services and prices in it.
- You decideIf you want it, we set it up. If you do not, that is a perfectly good outcome and we will say thank you.
