Barbers + Treatwell
The AI receptionist for barbers that writes straight into Treatwell.
Phone rings between cuts. You can't stop mid-fade to take it.
How it works
Foan plugs into Treatwell so every call becomes structured data in the system you already use. No re-typing, no copy-paste, no "I'll add it later."
Why barbers miss calls.
Walk-in trade is dropping. Booked appointments are the difference between a busy chair and an empty one.
It's Friday afternoon. A dad has just remembered his son's school pictures are on Monday. He needs a haircut tonight or tomorrow morning. He searches "barber near me open now" and starts ringing through the list.
Your shop is busy. You're mid-fade on the chair. The phone rings five times and stops. He moves on to the next shop on the list. They pick up. Booked. £15 for the kid, plus the dad usually gets one too while he's there. £30 walks past your window.
Foan picks up the second the phone rings. It says: "Hi, this is Foan for Marco's Barbers, what can I do for you?" Asks what service, who it's for, when they're free. Drops the booking straight into Booksy or Squire or whatever you use. Texts you the name and time so you know who's walking in next.
What you get on day one.

UK phone number included. Take a new line or forward your existing business number. Either way, Foan picks up.

Frequently asked
Does Foan really work for barbers using Treatwell?
Yes. Walk-in trade is dropping. Booked appointments are the difference between a busy chair and an empty one. Foan answers calls live, qualifies them by asking the questions a barber would ask, and writes the outcome into your Treatwell automatically. There's nothing for you to copy across.
How does Foan + Treatwell compare to hiring a receptionist?
A part-time receptionist costs around £1,800/mo and only covers business hours. Foan picks up 24/7 in two seconds, never misses a call during peak, and starts at £49/mo. Everything ends up in Treatwell the same way a human assistant would log it — except instantly and without typos.
What if a caller asks a question Foan doesn't know the answer to?
Foan is configured with your business hours, services, prices and FAQs the moment it's set up — we scan your website automatically. For anything genuinely unknown, the agent admits it doesn't know, takes the caller's contact details, and pings you so you can ring back. Better than voicemail, every time.
How quickly can I get this live with Treatwell?
Under 10 minutes. Sign up, connect Treatwell via OAuth (one click), pick a UK phone number, point your existing business line at it. Foan starts answering on the next ring.
