Call counts assume an average ninety-second call. Minutes are what you are billed on, and calls keep working past your allowance, so you are never cut off mid-booking. Ask on the demo what happens once you are past it.
All 51 of them, in one table.
The booking engine is identical in all three plans. Reporting and your own booking page arrive at Studio.

Not sure which plan?
Tell us how the phone behaves on a Saturday and we will point at one. Most salons land on Studio.
There is no price to show you here, so let us give you a real one.
Ten minutes on a call, run against your own menu, and a quote sized to your volume in your inbox within 24 hours. No card, no commitment.

Call volume

Locations
One line, or one per site with its own menu and its own POS.
Those three set the number. Everything below is in every restaurant account regardless: there is no tier that withholds a feature.
All 69 of them, in one table.
No plan tiers, no feature gates. What changes between two restaurants is the size of the line, not what it can do.
