Where Foxlot goes deeper

Share to WeChat & every social platform

One tap creates a share card and store QR code: in WeChat it shows as a rich card with your shop name and photo, and the same link works on Moments, RED, Instagram and Facebook.

A built-in AI assistant that writes, replies and thinks with you

AI Text Reception: missed calls, booked back

Too busy to pick up? A dedicated local number texts back every missed call. When the customer replies, the AI chats in their language — offers times, confirms the service, books it. Deposits? It sends a secure payment link. The same fox assistant also lives on your booking page as a chat widget.

Stop no-shows before they happen

Automatic confirmations and 24-hour reminders, deposits and card-on-file charges, and missed calls answered by text within seconds — with your booking link attached. Four defences, all built in.

Know exactly how the month went

Monthly, quarterly and yearly reports with trends, weekday breakdowns and top services — plus an AI summary of what to do next. Calendar, customer records and staff scheduling live in the same dashboard.

And everything you'd expect

Bilingual AI assistant

Writes service descriptions, replies to reviews and explains your reports — fluent in English and Chinese. Quota grows with your plan.

Self-serve booking

Your own page at foxlot.ca/your-shop. No app to download, no account required for guests.

Bilingual by default

Booking page and dashboard switch between English and Chinese with one tap.

Group classes

Yoga, pilates, workshops: set a capacity per time slot, let multiple guests share one session, close automatically when full.

Waitlist

On fully-booked days guests leave an email — the moment someone cancels, the waitlist gets notified. No empty chairs.

Reviews on autopilot

After each visit guests get a one-tap rating invite; stars show on your booking page, and 5-star guests are nudged to review you on Google.

Regulars come back

Book a regular's weekly or biweekly slot in one go; guests who haven't been back in a while get an automatic win-back email.

Switch in minutes

Import your customer list from Excel or another booking system — auto-deduplicated, nothing lost.

Google Calendar two-way sync

New bookings land on your staff’s Google Calendar, and busy blocks become unbookable automatically.

Embed on your website

One snippet puts booking right inside your existing site — no redirects.

Frequently asked questions

Is the free plan really free forever?

Yes. The Free plan costs $0 forever: 1 location, 1 staff calendar and 5 services, including your own booking page, an admin calendar and email reminders. No credit card required.

Do my guests need an account or an app?

No. Guests open your booking page, pick a service and a time, leave their contact info and they're booked — about 30 seconds. Rescheduling and cancelling happen through a secure link in their email/SMS, also without an account.

Can I share my booking page to WeChat?

Yes. One tap in the dashboard creates a share card and a store QR code. In WeChat your link shows as a rich card with your shop name and photo; the same link also works on Moments, RED, Instagram and Facebook.

Is it bilingual?

Yes. Both the booking page and the dashboard work in English and Chinese — guests and owners each choose their own language.

How do deposits and prepayment work?

From the Starter plan you can connect Stripe: each service can be set to pay in store, deposit, or full prepayment, and the money goes straight to your own Stripe account (CAD). Pro adds card-on-file no-show protection and SMS reminders.

I'm on another booking system — is switching painful?

No. Import your customer list from a CSV (export straight from Excel or your current system) — records matching an existing phone or email merge automatically. Services and business hours take a few minutes to set up, and you can send guests your new booking link the same day.

What if the time a guest wants is already full?

From the Starter plan, guests can join a waitlist on fully-booked days by leaving their email. The moment a spot frees up — a cancellation or an expired hold — the waitlist is notified instantly, first come first served.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. The default is month-to-month — upgrade, downgrade or cancel whenever you like, with no penalty. If you choose yearly billing, service simply runs to the end of the paid year and won't renew after you cancel.
