Can each stylist have their own calendar and days off?

Yes. Kashvi builds stylist-wise calendars where every team member has their own slots and off-days, and the owner sees the combined floor. Ask for it directly in your prompt and it's part of the generated app.

How does the UPI advance help with no-shows?

Clients pay a small deposit over UPI to confirm the booking, which is adjusted against the final bill. A committed rupee amount makes people far less likely to ghost, and the app can send WhatsApp reminders on top.

Do clients need to download an app to book?

No. The build ships as a web app you can share as a link from Instagram, Google Maps or WhatsApp, so clients book in a browser. You also get real Android and iOS apps if you want your salon's own icon on phones.

Do I own the code, or am I locked in?

You own it. Kashvi gives you the full, downloadable source with a real Postgres database and standard login — no proprietary runtime. You can host it yourself or hand it to any developer later.

What if the AI build fails?

Kashvi uses fair billing and refunds the credits for a generation that fails, so you only pay for builds that actually work. You can also refine your prompt and rebuild.

Can I take a package or membership instead of single bookings?

Yes. Describe a package — say a 10-service bundle — and Kashvi can build booking against remaining sessions, so regulars pre-pay and you track who has visits left.

Use case

Build a Booking App for Your Salon or Spa

Your front desk shouldn't run on a paper diary and a WhatsApp inbox full of "kal free slot hai?" Kashvi turns a plain-English description of your salon into a working appointment app — one where clients pick a stylist, see real open slots, pay a UPI advance to lock the chair, and get a reminder before they arrive. You get a real database, real logins for your staff, a live preview to test, and the full code to download and own.

Salons and spas lose money in two quiet ways: no-shows that leave a stylist idle for an hour, and double-bookings when two people scribble in the same diary. A generic "appointment" template ignores how a salon actually runs — different services take different amounts of time, each stylist has their own calendar and day off, and the busiest booking hours are exactly when nobody at the desk is free to answer the phone. Kashvi builds for that reality from the first prompt.

What a salon booking app actually needs

When you describe your salon to Kashvi, it generates the pieces this trade genuinely depends on — not a to-do list dressed up as a calendar:

Stylist-wise calendars, so a haircut with Priya and a facial with Anjali can happen in the same slot without clashing.
Service durations and buffers, so a 90-minute keratin treatment blocks the right amount of time and a 20-minute threading doesn't.
A UPI advance at booking — a small deposit that makes clients think twice before ghosting, and that adjusts against the final bill.
Automatic WhatsApp and SMS reminders the evening before and the morning of the appointment, cutting no-shows without a single manual message.
A staff login where each stylist sees only their own day, and the owner sees the whole floor and the day's takings.
A simple client history — last visit, preferred stylist, colour formula notes — so regulars feel remembered.

How Kashvi builds it from a prompt

You type what you want in normal language. Kashvi provisions a real Postgres database for your appointments, services and clients, wires up real sign-up and login for your team, and shows you a live preview you can click through before anyone books for real. The same build ships as a web app your clients open from an Instagram or Google Maps link, and as genuine Android and iOS apps through React Native — useful when you want your salon's own icon on a phone, not just another link. Every line of code is downloadable and yours: no proprietary runtime, no lock-in, host it wherever you like later.

Try this prompt: "A booking app for my unisex salon with 4 stylists. Clients pick a service, see each stylist's free slots for the week, and pay a 100 rupee UPI advance to confirm. Send a WhatsApp reminder the night before."

Or this one: "A spa appointment app with treatments from 30 to 120 minutes, therapist calendars, off-days, and an owner dashboard showing today's bookings, revenue and no-shows."

Or: "A membership + booking app where regulars buy a 10-service package, book slots against it, and I can see who has sessions left."

Old way	With a Kashvi app
Paper diary at the desk	Live calendar every stylist can see
Phone tag for open slots	Clients self-book real available times
No-shows eat idle hours	UPI advance + reminders cut them down
"Who booked 5pm?" confusion	One source of truth, per stylist

And because billing is transparent, if an AI generation ever fails midway, Kashvi refunds the credits — you only pay for builds that actually land. Pricing is in INR with Razorpay and UPI as first-class options, so there's no fiddling with foreign cards to run software for an Indian salon.
