For salons and med spas

Your back office, handled by text.

Puck handles inventory, reordering, and staff scheduling. Your team texts. Puck does the work.

No app for your team to install. They just text.

Monday, 7:02 AM. Puck ran the Midtown count overnight and is waiting on one word from you.

What changes

Off your team's list.

The tactical work that keeps a salon running eats a manager's week. Puck picks it up the moment someone texts.

  • Count the back bar after closeCounted for you
  • Find out you're out of developer mid-colorReordered before it ran out
  • Group-text the whole team for a Saturday subCovered, schedule updated
  • Rebuild next week's schedule in a spreadsheetDrafted from availability
  • Chase a client about an expired card on fileCard updated

How it works

Text it like you'd text a colleague.

Puck is a phone number. Your team texts it the way they already text each other, and it does the work in the systems you already use.

1

Your team texts Puck

Anyone on staff can text one number. No app, no logins, no training session.

Can someone fill in for me on Sat?
2

Puck does the work

It updates counts, builds the order, checks who's qualified and free, and lines up the sub.

Uptown has 5 extra. I'll move 2 over today and add it to Thursday's order.
3

You approve what matters

Orders and schedule changes come to you as a quick yes or no. Set limits once and Puck stops asking about the small stuff.

What it handles

Starting with inventory and staffing.

The two jobs that cost owners the most hours and the most money when they slip.

Inventory

Never run out of the thing you need mid-service.

  • Staff send Puck a photo before discarding an empty item. Puck keeps track.
  • Par levels based on what you actually use, so you're never overstocked or short.
  • Reorders from the suppliers you already buy from, after you say yes.
  • Notifies you when inventory is running low and forecasts upcoming demand.
Midtown: 3 Olaplex 3, 0 developer, 6 foilGot it. Developer is out at Midtown and Uptown has 5. Want me to move 2 over today?
Staffing

A full schedule without the group chat.

  • Builds next week's schedule from availability, bookings and who's certified for what.
  • Handles swaps and time-off requests by text, and keeps the schedule current.
  • When someone calls out, texts qualified staff one by one until the shift is covered.
  • Tells you who covered and what changed. Nothing for you to chase.

Payment recovery

Follows up on declined cards and expired memberships by text until they're updated.

Appointment booking

Books, moves and fills open slots when clients text in.

One number for your whole team

Everyone on staff texts the same number. Puck knows who they are and what they do.

Your rules, built in

Par levels, suppliers, hours and who works what. Puck works within them.

Room to grow

Add a second location, or a tenth. Each gets its own counts, staff and rules, and you see all of them.

“I'll put a girdle round about the earth in forty minutes.”
Puck, A Midsummer Night's Dream

In English folklore, Puck (also called Robin Goodfellow) was the household sprite who quietly finished the chores overnight. We named the company after him. These days he counts the back bar.

Questions

Good to know.

Does my team need to download anything?

No. Puck is a phone number. If your staff can send a text, they can use it on day one.

Will Puck spend money without asking?

No. Orders come to you as a yes or no text. If you want, you can set limits so small routine reorders go through on their own.

Which systems does it work with?

Puck connects to your booking software and the suppliers you already order from. Tell us your setup when you join the waitlist and we'll confirm what's supported.

Who is Puck for?

Salons and med spas where the manager's week disappears into counts, orders and the schedule.
