Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Sevachat and Priya.

What is Sevachat?

Sevachat is an AI WhatsApp receptionist — "Priya" — for salons and beauty businesses. She answers client messages, books and reschedules appointments, sends reminders, and follows up with past clients, on your salon’s own WhatsApp number, 24/7.

Which languages does Priya speak?

Hindi, Hinglish, and English. You choose the default style during setup, and Priya matches the client’s language automatically.

How do I connect my WhatsApp number?

During onboarding (or from Settings → WhatsApp) you connect your salon’s WhatsApp Business number. Setup is guided — you don’t need to configure anything technical yourself.

Do I need a separate phone number?

You connect your salon’s WhatsApp Business number. It should be a number you control and can receive a verification code on.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. No credit card is needed to start.

How much does it cost?

We have plans for every size of salon, from single-chair studios to multi-outlet brands. See the Pricing page for current plans and features.

Can I run multiple outlets from one account?

Yes. A brand owner manages all their outlets from one login, with an All-Outlets overview and a per-outlet view. Each outlet keeps its own team, services, and WhatsApp number.

Can I pause Priya without cancelling?

Yes. In Settings → Receptionist you can pause Priya any time; she stops replying until you unpause her.

Can clients cancel or reschedule themselves?

Yes. Every WhatsApp booking confirmation includes a "Manage your booking" link, so clients can cancel or reschedule without calling you.

How do I get support?

WhatsApp or email our team from the Contact page — we usually reply within minutes during business hours.
