# The AI receptionist for Pilates studios with every reformer in use An AI receptionist for Pilates studios answers your phone while you are coaching a full reformer class. It explains your intro packs, class levels and late-cancel policy, books private and duet sessions into Google Calendar or Microsoft 365, and texts you a summary of each caller, so no new client gets lost to voicemail. ## Why pilates studios miss calls - **Small classes, strict limits:** With a set number of reformers, each open spot matters. A late cancel or no-show leaves a machine empty, and a missed call from someone who could have filled it is a double loss. - **New clients need the right start:** Many studios want new clients to take privates or an intro series before group reformer. Explaining that path by phone, while also teaching, is where new clients fall away. Often for good. - **Instructors are hands-on all day:** You spend classes adjusting springs, cueing form and spotting clients. There is no moment to answer the phone without stepping away from someone mid-exercise. Every call has to wait until class ends. ## Calls Vocenya answers for pilates studios - Intro pack and first-session questions - Booking private or duet reformer sessions - Group class schedule and levels - Late-cancel and no-show policy - Class pack and membership questions - Rescheduling a private ## How does an AI receptionist help Pilates studios fill classes? The AI answers every call, including the ones during your fullest classes, and guides new callers to the right first step, whether that is an intro private or a beginner reformer class. It books privates on your instructors’ calendars in Google Calendar or Microsoft 365 and texts you each new client’s details. People who were curious about Pilates get a clear next step instead of an unreturned voicemail. Returning clients can call to book their next private at any hour. ## Can the AI explain my late-cancel policy? Yes. It explains your policy clearly every time, such as how many hours of notice you need and whether a late cancel counts as a used class. Hearing it plainly at booking helps clients take it seriously. When clients call to cancel early, the AI records it and texts you, giving you time to offer the reformer to someone else. Clients hear the same terms from the AI that you would give them yourself. ## Will the AI answer questions about class packs and memberships? It explains the packs and memberships you offer, how long they last and which classes they cover. It does not sell or charge for them. It tells callers how to purchase, usually online or at the studio, and sends you notes on anyone who wants help choosing. It can also explain which classes each pack covers, such as whether mat classes are included or privates are priced separately. Clients who understand the options before they arrive make faster decisions at the desk. ## Can clients mention injuries or limitations? Callers often mention a back issue, a recent surgery or pregnancy. The AI notes it in your summary so the instructor is prepared, and it does not give medical advice. If a caller asks whether Pilates is safe for their condition, it suggests they check with their doctor and flags the question for you. You can also tell it which situations need a private session first, like a new client who is pregnant or recovering from surgery. ## Frequently asked questions ### Can the AI book duet or semi-private sessions? Yes. You describe your session types and lengths, and the AI books them on the instructor’s calendar in Google Calendar or Microsoft 365 with both clients’ names in the summary. You can set how much notice duet partners need to cancel, and the AI explains it to both. ### Can it reserve a reformer in a group class? If you use separate class reservation software, the AI answers schedule questions and tells callers how to reserve through your website. It books privates and intro sessions directly into Google Calendar or Microsoft 365. Callers still get their schedule questions answered. ### Does the AI charge late-cancel fees? No. The AI does not handle payments. It explains your late-cancel policy and records the cancellation time so your team can apply the policy. The summary shows exactly when the client called, so there is no question about whether they were inside your notice window. ### What should it tell first timers to wear? Whatever you tell it. Most studios ask for grip socks and fitted clothes, and the AI can mention where to park, when to arrive and whether you sell grip socks at the desk. First timers walk in ready instead of nervous. ### How quickly can the studio start? Enter your website and Vocenya builds the receptionist from it in about 20 seconds.
