Feature · Reminders
Automated reminders that help reduce no-shows and manual texting.
The night before is not when you should be texting every customer. UnleashOS handles confirmations and reminders, and shows you the few that need a human nudge.

The reminder treadmill
The way most pet businesses do reminders.
You text every customer the night before
One by one, with the same message, on the busiest evening of the week.
You forget a couple on Friday
No-shows on Saturday morning. The slot can't be refilled.
Customers reply with questions
'What time again?' 'What's your address?' 'Do I need to pay a deposit?'
You end up on the phone
Trying to confirm before the appointment instead of getting ready for it.
