Message…

Right now, someone just DMed you
asking about Saturday.
You'll reply in 4 hours.
They've already booked somewhere else.

Replied too late
The average Instagram response time is 4+ hours. Most customers decide within 10 minutes. You lose before you even see the DM.
🔗
Sent a link they never clicked
"Check my Calendly" is a wall. 80% of customers who leave the DM for a booking page don't come back. The friction kills the conversion.
📅
Double-booked yourself
Managing bookings across DMs, notes, and a paper diary is chaos. One mistake costs you a client and your reputation.

Booking forms
kill the moment.

When someone's ready to book, a cold form makes them think twice. A chat keeps the energy going — they answer a couple of questions and they're done. FloChat's widget turns that conversation into a confirmed booking, right on your website.

Feels like texting, not admin — visitors are far more likely to complete a chat than fill out a form.
The AI checks your live availability and confirms the booking inside the chat — no redirect, no waiting.
Paste one line of code and it's live — branded with your colour, works on any website or page builder.

Deposits — new

No-shows cost you money.
Stop chasing deposits.

The old way

"Can you send me $20 deposit?" — then awkward silence or a bank transfer that never arrives.
Sending customers to a separate payment app — they drop off and the booking never happens.
Manually tracking who paid and chasing the ones who didn't — every single week.

FloChat collects the deposit inside the same conversation — the moment the booking is confirmed, a Stripe payment link lands in the chat. Customer pays in seconds. You get notified. Done.

Set a flat, percentage, or service-specific deposit — FloChat handles the rest automatically.
Stripe pays directly into your account — not held by us, not batched, not delayed.
Once paid, the booking is auto-confirmed and a confirmation drops back into the chat — on any platform.
Works on Instagram, Facebook, Telegram, and your website chat — wherever your customers talk to you.

The full-day wedding package is $2,400 — that covers ceremony through reception, plus a private gallery of 400 edited images delivered within three weeks. The deposit to secure your date is 20%, so $480 upfront, with the balance due the week before.
11:08 am
That sounds exactly right. The deposit structure works for us — let's go ahead.
11:09 am
Wonderful — I'm so glad it works. I'll hold the date now. Go ahead and pay the $480 deposit below and your booking is confirmed. 📷 Pay $480 deposit via Stripe

Built-in business intelligence

The AI knows your business.
Staff, locations, and all.

FloChat doesn't just reply to DMs — it understands your real operation. Multiple locations, individual staff availability, and per-service preferences are all visible to the AI in real-time.

🏢
Multi-location, one workspace
Run several branches, studios, or sites under a single FloChat account. Each location has its own hours, staff, and availability — the AI knows which location a customer is asking about and books accordingly.
Multiple locations
👥
Staff profiles & schedules
Add your team members, assign them services, and set their weekly roster. FloChat tracks each person's real availability — when they're on shift, when they're fully booked, and when a slot opens up.
Roster management
🤖
AI sees who's actually free
When a customer DMs asking about availability, the AI checks your live roster before it responds. No phantom slots. No double-bookings. It only offers times when a qualified staff member is genuinely on shift and free.
Live availability
✂️
Request a specific staff member
"Can I book with Marcus on Saturday?" — FloChat handles it. Customers can name a preferred stylist, artist, or trainer in their DM, and the AI checks that specific person's schedule and books them directly.
Staff preference
🌐
Website chat widget — one line of code
Don't have Instagram approval yet, or want to capture visitors on your own site? Paste a single <script> tag and a "Book Now" button appears on every page — bottom-right corner, ready to chat. The same AI flow that handles Instagram DMs handles these conversations too, checking real availability and confirming bookings in real time.

The difference

The only tool that checks
real availability inside the DM.

Other tools send a booking link. FloChat is the booking system — no redirect, no drop-off, no lost customers.

Built for your business

If people DM you to book —
FloChat is for you.

Different business types, different capacity logic. FloChat understands all of them.

💈
Barber Shops
Multiple barbers, different service lengths, constant DMs asking "is Marcus free Saturday?" — all while you're mid-cut.
Tracks your roster in real-time. Checks which barber is free for which service. Books without overbooking.
🖋️
Tattoo Studios
Dozens of DMs daily about flash availability, consultations, and custom pieces. Artists spend more time in DMs than drawing.
Qualifies the enquiry, checks availability, collects deposit intent, and books the slot — so your artists focus on creating.
💅
Lash & Nail Salons
Booking lost because you replied 3 hours late. The client just booked the competitor who replied in seconds.
Replies instantly, offers your next 3 available slots, and confirms the booking while you're still working on a client.
🍽️
Restaurants
Table reservations via DM are chaos — no clear system, constant back-and-forth, double-bookings on busy weekends.
Checks real table capacity per time slot, handles party size constraints, and confirms reservations in seconds.
🏋️
Coaches & Trainers
Qualifying leads, sharing calendar links, chasing follow-ups. You lose half your prospects before the first call.
Qualifies leads with smart questions, syncs your Google Calendar, and books discovery calls automatically.
📸
Photographers
Every enquiry is custom — different session types, locations, turnaround times. Managing it all via DM is a second job.
Collects session details, checks your calendar, and gets a deposit commitment before you lift a camera.
Integration spotlight

Rostered in Deputy.
Booked through FloChat.

Your Deputy roster becomes FloChat's capacity engine. It sees who's on shift, calculates how many bookings your location can still take, and knows whether a specific person is free — before it replies to anyone.

Who's rostered today = how many bookings can be taken. FloChat won't offer slots that don't exist.
"I want to book with Marcus" — the AI checks Marcus's Deputy shift before confirming anything.
Roster updates in Deputy → FloChat's capacity picture updates. No phantom slots, ever.
