Not DIY software you build and babysit like ManyChat or Chatfuel. Not a €1,500/month receptionist who clocks off at five. A managed front desk, built, trained and run by Denis, working every channel, around the clock.

The quiet leak

Three moments that lost you money this week.

None of them were about price, and none were about service. Every one was about a reply that came too late, or never came at all.

Sat 10:48 PM

The balayage enquiry that booked elsewhere.

She messaged on Saturday night. You saw it Monday. By then she had booked the salon down the road that replied at nine.

Tue 9:12 PM

The basket that never came back.

One question about sizing, no answer, tab closed. The order was nearly done, and it quietly went cold overnight.

Wed 11:30 PM

The enrolment that went cold.

They asked if September places were open. Three days of silence later, they had signed up with the school that wrote back first.

Set up in one call

Three jobs, running before you open your laptop.

Not a chat widget you wire up yourself. A front desk that does the work an alert receptionist would, on every channel at once.

It answers, day and night.

Every message on WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger and web gets a reply in seconds: booking links, answers, follow-ups. At 11 PM. On a bank holiday. While you are mid-cut.

🧠

It remembers every customer.

Who they are, what they bought, when they last came in. It spots the regular who has quietly drifted, before they are gone for good.

📋

It tells you who to chase.

Each morning, a short list of exactly who to follow up with: named, in order, message already written. You decide whether to send it.

🎤  Voice notes and photos
It listens to a voice note, reads a photo of a hairstyle or a product, and replies with the right next step.

🤝  Human handoff
Complaints and judgement calls come straight to you, with the full thread. The customer never notices the switch.

🌍  Replies in their language
Portuguese, Polish, Spanish and more, built for the customers Dublin and Cork actually serve.

A demo you can drive yourself

FreshCatch is our live demo shop, a real WooCommerce backend wired to the same AI you would run. Message it, check the stock, build a basket, get a real checkout link. Nothing here is mocked up.

Why FrontDesk

A receptionist's job. Without the salary, or the day off.

A tool that answers questions gets cancelled, because it is a cost. A front desk that catches the booking you would have lost pays for itself the first week. That is the difference between a line on a bill and a service you would never turn off.

Do the maths

One missed booking a month costs more than this.

Most owners underestimate the leak. Drag the sliders to your own numbers.

5
€120
€681
a month walking out the door, that is roughly €8,200 a year
FrontDesk is €39/month. One booking caught back covers it for the month, with plenty to spare.

Assumes a third of late replies would have converted, which is deliberately conservative. Your real recovery rate is usually higher.

What owners say

The proof is a conversation away.

Early days, so we would rather show you than tell you: one owner’s words, and a live store you can order from yourself.

★★★★★

“We caught two bookings in the first 48 hours that came in after 10 PM. I would have missed both without this.”

Before you book

Questions owners ask.

How is this different from ManyChat or Chatfuel?

Those are tools you build and babysit yourself. FrontDesk is a managed service. Denis builds it around your business, runs it, and updates it when things change. You never touch the system. When you want something altered, you message him on WhatsApp and it is done the same day.

It is trained on your voice, your prices and your services, so it reads like someone who works for you, not a generic bot. When a conversation needs a human, it hands it straight to you with the full thread, and the customer never notices the switch.

€39/month is the entry tier. Your final tier depends on how many channels you run and your message volume, and Denis confirms it on the setup call before you commit. No per-message charges, no setup fees, no hidden invoices.

Yes. It listens to voice notes and reads photos, a hairstyle a client wants, a product they are after, a job they need quoting, and replies with the right answer or next step.

It works alongside Fresha, Booksy, Phorest, Treatwell, Calendly, Square, WooCommerce and any booking link or checkout URL you already use. It does not replace your booking system, it sends the right link at the right moment in the conversation.

Most owners catch their first after-hours booking or recovered enquiry in the first week, because that is when FrontDesk starts answering the messages you used to miss overnight. The morning follow-up list is live from day one.

Still wondering something? Message Denis on WhatsApp, he replies personally.

Founder · FrontDesk.ie · Dublin

The Saturday night that started this.

A salon-owner friend showed me her phone one Sunday: a 9:48 PM message from the night before, “any chance of a colour this week?”, that she had not seen until morning. By then the client had booked elsewhere. The client had already decided to spend the money. The reply just landed too late. It was not a one-off, it was every week. So I built the thing I wished she had: a front desk that answers in seconds, remembers everyone, and tells you who needs a nudge, managed by me, not handed to you as another app to learn. I set it up, I run it, and I am on WhatsApp when you need me.

Book the setup

Your next customer is messaging
your business right now.

The only question is whether anyone replies before they book somewhere else. Book a 15-minute setup, watch Denis build your front desk live on the call, and see it working before you pay a penny. If it is not right, you walk away. No charge, no obligation.
