Before choosing AI Receptionist, most UAE buyers want the same questions answered honestly. Here they are.

Who is it for?

  • Salons, clinics, spas, and studios that book over WhatsApp
  • Restaurants, cafés, and experiences taking reservations by chat
  • Service businesses tired of answering the same questions after hours
  • Owners who want AI on WhatsApp without building a custom chatbot

What does it actually do?

AI Receptionist connects your WhatsApp Business number to an AI agent that sounds like your front desk. Paste free-form business Details (offerings, hours, prices) and Rules (closures and exceptions always win); optionally generate reviewable FAQs. The agent answers questions and runs a booking flow—offering, date/time, people, contact, confirm—while conflict-checking existing bookings so the same slot is never double-booked. Staff manage knowledge, bookings, customers, and an inbox with human takeover and hand-back to AI, all from one cloud dashboard.

What does Try now open?

It opens the live AI Receptionist app at ai-receptionist.avaiyasoftware.com so you can sign up, start a trial, and connect WhatsApp.

Do I need to train a custom chatbot?

No. Paste Details and Rules in the admin, optionally generate FAQs, connect WhatsApp with Embedded Signup, and the agent uses that knowledge to answer and book.

Can staff take over a conversation?

Yes. From the Inbox you can take over any chat, reply as staff on WhatsApp, and hand the conversation back to AI when ready.

How does the free trial work?

New workspaces start with a 7-day free trial. Subscribe via Stripe from the Subscription page when you are ready to continue.
