How automated scheduling actually works
Clients see your real-time calendar 24/7 and book a slot that automatically blocks in your system. No phone tag, no manual entry, no 'sorry, that just got booked'.
Set buffer times per service for cleanup, change-overs or notes. Avana automatically respects them — you never end up with two clients arriving at the same time.
Clients cancel through their confirmation link. The slot opens back up immediately for someone else to book. No back-and-forth messaging.

What you get
These are not features — these are the things that change in your daily salon life from day one.
They see your availability and pick their time, even at night and weekends. You only get the confirmation in your inbox.
Every appointment gets an automatic email and SMS reminder at 24 hours and 2 hours before. Clients stop forgetting you.
Avana takes no commission on your bookings. You pay a flat monthly subscription from £12. Card payments run at Stripe's standard rate with nothing added on top. A small booking fee applies to your client when they reserve online.
Drop it in your Instagram bio, send it via SMS or print it as a QR on your business card. Clients book directly, no account required, no app to download.
For longer or pricier services, take a deposit automatically at booking. If the client doesn't show up, you keep the deposit.
Phone numbers, emails, treatment history, photos and notes — all in one place. Not on a marketplace. With you, exportable any time.
