One chair, one stylist, one system
Keep your book full while your hands are in colour.
Your calendar, clients, deposits and rebooking in one place. A 2 hour balayage is 2 hours you cannot answer a phone, so Tyndal holds the slot, takes the deposit and brings your regulars back on their own rhythm.
We will email you when your spot opens. No card, no spam.
Booked Priya for a root touch up Tuesday at 10:00 am.
Took a $50 deposit on Saturday's balayage.
Asked 3 clients from last week for a review.
Bec wants to add a gloss to Thursday. That is 30 more minutes. Needs you.
Hi! Do you have anything for a balayage in the next couple of weeks?
This is Sunny, the AI scheduling assistant for Juniper Salon. This is not a human. I can help book or reschedule your appointment. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help. Msg and data rates may apply.
Sunny8:40 pmNia has Saturday the 22nd at 11:00 am, 3 hours. A $50 deposit holds it.
Sunny8:41 pmThat works, let me pay it.
Paid and booked, Saturday the 22nd at 11:00 am with Nia. Come with day old hair.
Sunny8:46 pmYou are the merchant of record, so payments land in your own account.
You can read every message it sends.
Step in and it steps back.
Any chance of Thursday? My roots are getting scary.
Nia can do Thursday at 5:00 pm.
Sunny8:41 pmHey Bec, it's Nia. I'll do your color myself Thursday, bring the photo you sent me.
You8:43 pmThe part people ask about
It handles the logistics. You keep the relationship.
A barber told us she did not want anything standing between her and her clients. We think that's the right instinct, and it's how we built Tyndal. Scheduling, sending reminders and confirmations, and managing payments are logistics. Anything that needs a personal touch comes to you.
You see every word
Every thread is in the app, in order, in plain language. Nothing happens out of your sight.
Step in and it steps back
The moment you type, the assistant goes quiet on that thread and stays quiet until you hand it back. There is no setting to find first.
It never speaks as you
It introduces itself as your AI assistant, and if a client asks whether it is a person, it says so plainly.
The system
Everything your business runs on, in one place.
One place for the calendar, the clients, the money and the follow-ups, instead of a paper book, a card reader and a notes app.
A calendar that never double books you
A slot is held the moment it is offered, deposits attach to the booking, and two people can never land in the same time.
Your services and prices
Every service with its price and how long it takes, so the calendar always books the right amount of time. Add one by saying "root touch up, 90 minutes, $120."
Client records that stay with you
Every visit, every note, every conversation in one record. Her last colour, that she rebooks every 4 weeks, that she likes to be texted.
Payments, start to finish
Deposits before the visit, tapping a card at the chair, a payment link by text, and no show fees when you need them.
Reminders and confirmations
Every client gets a reminder, and they confirm by texting back a single letter. It happens whether or not anyone is watching.
Waitlist that fills your gaps
A cancellation goes to your waitlist in order and stops the moment somebody says yes.
Follow-ups that bring people back
A note after the visit, and a nudge when a regular who comes every 4 weeks has not been in for 7 weeks.
One queue for anything that needs you
Everything the system could not decide on its own, waiting in one place instead of scattered across your phone.
One system, several operators
Each operator has their own calendar and their own numbers, with one shared system underneath.
Tyndal's assistant is how the work gets done. It was built into the system from the start rather than added on top later, so it does not wait to be spoken to. It fills the cancellation, brings back the regular who is overdue, and tells you what it did. It always says it is an assistant.
At the end of the day
It tells you what it did, and what needs you.
Most software waits for you to operate it. Tyndal runs your day and reports back, so you find out what happened without going looking for it.
Nadia Brooks into your 4:00 pm from the waitlist.
Priya Shah, root touch up next Tuesday at 10:00 am.
Tasha Reid, balayage Saturday at 10:00 am.
Confirmed Priya for 9:00 am.
Took Bec's $40 deposit for her 5:00 pm.
Asked 3 clients from Tuesday for a review.
Sent 6 reminders for tomorrow.
Needs you, 1
Priya asked for Saturday. You are normally closed Saturdays.
She can do 10:00 am, 1:00 pm or 3:00 pm.
It works while you are with a client
Your 4:00 pm filled from the waitlist at 9:05 am, and the 3:15 pm booking came in while your hands were busy.
Nothing goes out as you
Every message it sends carries its own name, and anything personal waits for your say so.
The day is there when you are
Check it at lunch or at closing. The same summary is waiting, in order, with times and names.
What we are working on
The parts of this job nobody built software for.
Some of this will sound familiar.
The two hour appointment you booked for 90 minutes, because she did not mention the box dye until she sat down.
The formula card that lives on one piece of paper, and the sinking feeling when you cannot find it.
The client you never hear from again, and you still do not know whether the colour settled the way she wanted.
The before and after you were proud of, still sitting in your camera roll three weeks later.
If any of that sounds like your week, we would like to talk to you.
What it is worth
The same week. More of it booked.
Every week has hours that go unsold: the hour after a cancellation, the regular who is 8 weeks overdue, the text that came in mid cut. Tyndal works all three in the background and tells you what came of it.
Gaps get offered, one client at a time
It asks your waitlist in order and stops the moment somebody says yes, so nobody gets a slot that is already gone.
Regulars come back sooner
A note after the visit while it is still fresh, and a nudge when someone who comes every 4 weeks has not been in for 7 weeks.
New clients hear back before they book somewhere else
A question at 9:00 pm gets a real answer at 9:00 pm, not the next time you pick up your phone.
What those hours are worth
Move the two sliders to your own week.
Filling all of them
Fill half and it is $520 a month, $6,240 a year.
Your numbers, your math: slots by ticket by 4 weeks. Sample values, not a promise.
Hands free
Your hands are full. Just say it out loud.
Your hands are in colour. Say what you need and it is done before you rinse.
"Book Priya a root touch up Tuesday at 10:00"
It finds the 90 minutes your menu says a root touch up takes and holds the 10:00 am.
"Block off Friday afternoon"
Friday from noon closes on your booking page, and nobody can take those hours.
It reads the plan back and waits
You hear the name, the service, the length and the time. Nothing is booked until you say yes, so you never have to look down mid colour.

Priya Shah, root touch up, 90 minutes, Tuesday at 10:00 am. Say yes and I will book it.
What stays yours
Your money, in your name.
Every payment lands in your account
You are the merchant of record. The account is registered to you, in your name, and every deposit and every payment settles straight into it. We never hold your money and we cannot freeze you out of it, because it was never sitting in our account waiting on our decision.
Your client list works the same way
We store references, not your clients' personal details, and when you ask us to delete something we delete it. Your booking page shows your business and nobody else's. Your clients are not inventory to be shown to somebody else.
We help you set the account up and it connects to Tyndal, but the account is registered to you and it stays yours, always.
From the founder
Why I built this.
I loved doing my own nails as a hobby. A friend who was opening a salon asked me to be the nail tech there, so I left my job as a court clerk and went to school to get my license. I helped her get the place ready and worked the grand opening, doing nails all day. I loved that part, helping people look and feel their best and watching them leave happy. My life direction changed and I wasn't able to stay, but that feeling stuck with me.
Years later I moved into business and operations, much of it as the right hand to CEOs. During that time, I saw AI begin to emerge. I don't consider myself very techy, so I understood the fear a lot of people have about it. But the more I saw, the more I believed it doesn't have to be the scary thing some people imagine. When used mindfully, even if you're not techy, it can actually protect the core human part of your work. That's why I built Tyndal: to automatically handle the distractions that would pull your focus away from helping your clients look and feel their best.

First message a client ever gets
This is Sunny, the AI scheduling assistant for Maple & Co. This is not a human. I can help book or reschedule your appointment. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help. Msg and data rates may apply.
Your clients see this once, on first contact. After that it is a normal conversation, and the assistant still signs every message it sends.
What it costs

This is a founding rate. The first 100 accounts to start a plan keep that price for as long as they keep that plan, even when prices change for everyone else. Joining the early list gets you first access to it.
Founding rates cover the base price of the plan you start on. Changing plans moves you to current pricing. Payment processing and usage charges are not included. The rate is not transferable, and it ends if you cancel.
