The "After-Hours Blackout" Problem
Prospective martial arts students call at 9 PM about beginner taekwondo classes, but your front desk is closed, leading to lost enrollments during peak post-work motivation hours when they're fired up from seeing a viral dojo video
Current members text or call late night with doubts about proper muay thai stance form corrections, and without quick answers, they lose momentum, skip the next sparring session, and risk improper technique habits
During busy karate tournament seasons, overflow calls about registration and division eligibility get missed, causing frustration and forcing instructors to chase leads manually the next day instead of prepping drills
Busy parents inquiring about kids' Brazilian jiu-jitsu self-defense programs after work hours hang up when voicemail kicks in, missing chances to build family loyalty through ongoing wellness routines
Belt promotion hype for black belt eligibility fades overnight if follow-up on technique prerequisite questions isn't immediate, resulting in drop-offs before the big testing day and lost progression milestones
Injury prevention advice seekers call post-yoga or HIIT workout but get no response on stretches or recovery tips, leading to higher no-shows, increased minor strains, and weakened community trust in your holistic wellness expertise

What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's voice agent, we'd lose half our evening inquiries to voicemail, especially parents asking about flexible adult kickboxing schedules. Now, it books intro classes on the spot with instant slot confirmations—last month alone, we added 12 new adult students from 8 PM calls after their gym sessions. It's transformed our after-hours game without adding staff, and our retention's up because follow-ups feel personal."
Marcus Lee
Owner, Dragon Fist Martial Arts Studio in Seattle
"Our members often call late with questions on upcoming belt tests, like what forms to review for yellow belt. The AI handles it smoothly, even pulling schedule details from our calendar and suggesting practice drills. In three months, we've seen 25% fewer no-shows because doubts get cleared instantly, keeping everyone on track for their wellness goals. Feels like an extension of our instructor team."
Elena Vasquez
Head Instructor, Apex Karate Academy in Austin, TX
"During our summer self-defense camp push, the agent fielded parent calls non-stop from 7-10 PM, qualifying fits for kids' programs by asking about age and experience levels. We filled 15 extra spots we would've missed, with bookings syncing directly to our app—setup took just two days, and it's boosted our family enrollments by 18%. Integrated perfectly with our Vagaro booking system."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI voice agent handle the unique lingo of martial arts schools?
We train it specifically on your terminology—from 'sparring gear' to 'black belt prerequisites'—using your actual call logs and curriculum. It's not a generic bot; we customize the dialogue to sound like your team, ensuring it grasps nuances like distinguishing taekwondo patterns from judo throws. During setup, we run simulations with real scenarios, like a parent asking about gi sizes for kids. This means responses feel authentic, building trust right away. Plus, it learns over time from interactions, getting even better at your dojo's vibe without constant tweaks from you.
What if a call needs a human touch, like discussing a student's specific progress?
Smart escalation is built-in. The agent detects when a query goes beyond basics—like detailed form feedback or injury history—and seamlessly transfers to your on-call instructor with full context shared. It summarizes the conversation, logs key details in your CRM, and even suggests optimal transfer times. You're probably thinking this adds complexity, but it's the opposite: it saves time by pre-qualifying, so humans jump straight into high-value talks. In practice, 80% of calls resolve automatically, but those 20% handoffs are smoother and more informed.
Can it integrate with my existing scheduling and payment systems?
Absolutely, we design deep, two-way integrations tailored to tools like Mindbody or your custom roster app. The agent can check real-time availability for intro classes, book spots, and process deposits on the spot via voice-guided prompts. For example, a caller interested in adult MMA gets options read aloud, confirms via PIN, and receives a calendar invite instantly. No more double-entry; everything syncs to your single source of truth. We've done this for dozens of wellness spots, cutting admin time by 40% and ensuring no overbookings during peak hours.
How do we ensure the agent's responses align with our school's values and safety protocols?
Customization starts with your input: we embed your philosophy, like emphasizing discipline and respect, into every script. For safety, it follows protocols—never giving medical advice on injuries but directing to pros. We use your FAQs, class guidelines, and even recorded sessions to train it, then test rigorously with role-plays. Post-launch, you review transcripts and tweak via an easy dashboard. It's like a digital sensei apprentice: learns your ways, promotes positive experiences, and upholds standards, helping retain families who value that integrity.
What's the setup time and cost for a custom AI voice agent?
Setup takes 4-6 weeks, depending on your systems' complexity—faster if you're already digitized. We start with a free audit of your call patterns, then build and test iteratively. Unlike subscription models, this is a one-time build for ownership, starting around $15K for core features, scaling with add-ons like multi-location support. ROI hits quick: schools see payback in 3-4 months via captured leads. No hidden fees; it's an asset that grows with you, eliminating monthly voice service bills that add up fast in retention-focused businesses.
Will the AI agent improve member retention in our martial arts school?
Yes, by providing instant, always-on support that keeps motivation high. Think of a student calling after a tough practice for a quick tip on stance—they get it immediately, reinforcing commitment. Data from similar setups shows 25% retention lifts, as it addresses pain points like forgotten schedules or technique hurdles outside hours. We track metrics like repeat inquiries and engagement, optimizing to nurture long-term loyalty. It's not just reactive; proactive nudges, like birthday belt reminders, turn one-time callers into dedicated practitioners.
