Ukilu runs the front desk of a salon: the calendar, the till, the customer book and the waiting queue — on the iPad at your counter and the iPhone in your pocket. It is a tool for the people who work in the shop, not an app for booking one.
ASK KILU
Kilu is the assistant built into your shop. Ask a question in your own words — "revenue this week", "who's booked today", "which customers haven't been in for three months" — and get the answer straight from your own live data. Bookings, takings, tips, gift cards, loyalty points, reviews, deposits, discounts, your busiest hour, who is rostered on. Kilu only reports what is actually in your shop; it never estimates a number it cannot see. Ask by typing or by voice, or paste a phone number to find out whose it is.
THE DAY, ON ONE SCREEN
A calendar built for a busy day: a column per staff member, drag a booking to move it, and a full day scrolls as smoothly as an empty one. Book in four short steps and read the whole thing back before you commit. Block out time, hold slots with a deposit, and rebook a client in a couple of taps.
THE TILL
Take a sale on the iPhone or the iPad. Split one sale across several cash and card tenders. Tips added on the payment terminal are captured against the sale and returned on a refund. Charge a paired Tyro, Square or Linkly terminal straight from the till, print to a thermal printer, and show the total on a customer-facing display over USB-C or HDMI.
THE QUEUE
Walk-ins get a ticket and a place in line. The waiting list shows who is next, how long each person has been waiting and when the room is likely to clear — and it stays in step across every device in the shop.
YOUR CUSTOMERS
A proper contact list with search, tags, service notes and photos. See what someone had last time, what they have spent, and when they were last in. Run a loyalty scheme with your own points-to-discount rules, redeemed at check-in. Sell and redeem gift cards.
REMINDERS THAT ACTUALLY ARRIVE
Send booking confirmations and appointment reminders as SMS, delivered to your customer's phone by a mobile carrier from your shop's message allowance. Staff get a push notification the moment a booking lands.
KNOW WHERE YOU STAND
Revenue, transactions and average sale on the home screen, updating the moment a checkout finishes. Reports on services, staff, payment methods and busiest days. In-app reviews and Google Business reviews in one place. A Home Screen widget for today's takings.
WORKS THE WAY A SHOP WORKS
Roles and permissions per staff member, so a technician sees the calendar and an owner sees the money. English and Vietnamese throughout. iPhone and iPad, with the layout each one deserves.
ACCOUNT REQUIRED
Ukilu is a business tool sold to salon owners as part of a Ukilu subscription. You need a shop account from us to sign in; there is no public sign-up in the app, and it is not used by salon customers.
