a flomi plan · text booking
Your clients text a number to book, the same way they text you now. It answers in seconds, offers your real open times, takes the deposit, and sends the reminders. You finish the appointment in front of you.
No commission on your bookings, and no fees added to your clients. Deposits go to your own Stripe account.

hands you the rest
you get a text with their question and their number
Example conversations for a made-up shop, written the way the assistant answers in our tests. It says it's automated in its first reply, offers only times that are really open, and asks before it changes anything.
what you get
answers for you
It offers real open times, holds the one they pick, and answers the questions you get all day: prices, hours, where to park.
protects your time
Nobody's booked until the deposit is paid. A reminder goes out the day before, and moving or cancelling follows your own rules.
fills the gaps
When someone cancels, the people who asked for an earlier time get offered the open spot.
how it works
Send me your menu, prices, deposit and hours. Most of it is already on your Booksy or Instagram.
I set up your number, a page with your menu, and the assistant. Carriers take about two weeks to approve a new business number.
You try it yourself first, and say yes when it sounds right.
Clients text, it books, and the deposits land in your Stripe.
the plan
$450 setup + $200 / month
A card on file at the start, and nothing charged until your line has been live for two weeks. Keep it, and the $450 setup and your first $200 month are charged then. Stop before, and you pay us nothing.
What you pay others, at cost and never marked up: your texting number, about $19.50 once to register, then about $3 a month plus about a penny a text. Card fees, 2.9% + 30¢ out of each deposit, kept by Stripe. Your own web address is optional, about $11 a year.
my promise
The number, the Stripe account and the client list are in your name. Leave anytime and take all of it.
It only offers times your calendar really has, never invents a price, and passes anything else to you.
If it doesn't sound like your shop, tell us before they end: we switch it off, you pay us nothing, and your texts land on your phone like they do today.
questions
Yes. It says so in its first reply, and it never pretends to be you. If someone asks for a person, it passes them to you.
It can only offer times that are really open, and it quotes only your prices. When it isn't sure, it hands the conversation to you instead of guessing.
Not safely side by side. Booksy doesn't keep an outside calendar in sync, so both could sell the same time. We'll talk through moving over, or blocking times by hand.
Some are good, especially on phone calls, which this doesn’t answer. The difference is in how it books by text: nobody’s booked until the deposit is paid, not sent a payment link afterward. It answers in Spanish, the number and the Stripe account are in your name, and I set it up and tune it to how you talk. If you’re happy with your app and most bookings come by phone, keep it.
Yes, if your price depends on it, like braids, color or a tattoo: their photos come straight to your phone. For a cut, it asks them to show you at the appointment.
Yes. It answers in the language your client writes in.
Your menu, prices, deposit and hours, and about an hour with me to set up your accounts in your name.
ready?
Tell me a little about your shop. I'll get back to you personally, usually the same day.
