Circle Gym, a circuit-training studio in Valencia, Spain, is run by an owner who lives in Denmark. Staff could only call new leads from 4 to 8 PM. Four AI voice agents now call leads within seconds, take callbacks, answer common questions and rebook no-shows. Trial bookings went from 4 to 10 a day.
E.F.F.E.C.T Fitness, a performing-arts style fitness studio in Atlanta, kept missing calls and playing phone tag. They added an AI front desk that texts people back when a call is missed, answers questions on the website, and chats with leads on Facebook.
