Glide-In™
The virtual waiting room, reimagined.
Clients check in from their car with one tap. Your team gets pinged the second they arrive. No packed lobby. No "did she show up yet?" chaos. Just glide.
One tap. From the car. No app.
Fifteen minutes before their appointment, Jenny gets a warm branded text with her personal check-in link. She taps In my car, drops a quick note like "red Jeep out front", and hits I'm here ✨.
Her stylist's phone buzzes instantly. The waiting board turns amber. Your lobby stays calm — and Jenny feels like a VIP before she's even in the chair.
- ✓ No download. No account. Just a link.
- ✓ Fully branded to your salon.
- ✓ Works on any phone, any carrier.
15 minutes before the appointment, the client gets a branded SMS + email with a one-tap check-in link. No app to download.
"I'm in my car" or "I'm inside" — the client picks. Add a note like "red Jeep out front" and the stylist knows exactly where to look.
The moment they tap check-in, the assigned stylist gets an SMS and the live waiting board updates in real time.
When the chair is ready, tap "You're up ✨" — the client gets a warm, on-brand text to come on in.
See every client, their status (link sent → arrived → notified → seated), where they are, and their arrival note — all at a glance.
No more chairs crowded with waiting clients. No more phone tag. Nobody wondering if she showed up. Just a beautiful, quiet lobby.
