Industries · Studios & Wellness

Operations and growth for studios and wellness.

Compass AI Group helps Canadian spas, gyms, pilates and yoga studios, salons and wellness centres get the owner back on the floor instead of at the desk. We map where the calls, the bookings and the walk-ins take the day, fix the process, and add technology and AI only where it pays.

About one in six Bearings Reports says: do nothing yet.

A call after close, with the fix
A prospect calls a sample pilates studio at 8:05 PM, after close. With the fix, the call is answered, the trial class is booked into the studio's existing booking platform, and the owner gets a daily summary at 7 AM. The owner teaches the first class on Saturday.ONE CALL AFTER CLOSE8:05 PMA prospect calls about a trialReformer pilates, wants to start this week8:05 PMAnswered after closePrice, schedule and parking questions handledBefore: voicemail, then booked elsewhere by morning8:07 PMTrial class bookedIn the booking platform you already useBefore: a callback between classes the next day7:00 AMDaily summary to the ownerOnly what needs you is flaggedBefore: a voicemail queue before the first classSAT 9:00 AMThe first classYou teach; the desk did not need youWhat the fix changesWhat stays as it isA prospect calls a sample pilates studio at 8:05 PM, after close.

FIG. 00A sample studio, not a client’s. In gold, what the fix changes: the call after close answered and the trial class booked. The owner stays on the floor.

S.01Where time leaks

The bottlenecks we see in studios and wellness businesses.

  1. 01

    The desk competes with the class

    Booking calls, cancellations, membership questions, and can-I-come-see-it requests arrive while you are teaching. Either you hire for the desk or you do it between sessions. Both cost the business.

  2. 02

    The 8 p.m. inquiry books elsewhere

    A prospect calls about a trial class after close and reaches voicemail. By morning they have booked the studio down the street. Across a year that is real revenue walking past the door.

  3. 03

    Members drift after month three

    Retention is where studios live or die, and a missed-week check-in that never gets sent is a member who quietly stops coming.

S.02What we fix first

The fixes that usually come first.

Every engagement starts with the Bearings Report, so the first fix is the one with the clearest payback, not the newest tool.

  1. 01

    Map a day at the desk and price it

    A Bearings Report follows the calls, the bookings, and the walk-ins for a week, puts hours and dollars on the interruptions, and ranks what to fix first. For some studios the answer is a schedule change, not software.

  2. 02

    A front desk that answers after close

    An AI receptionist handles inquiry calls, bookings, cancellations, reschedules, and membership questions around the clock, connects to the booking platform you already use, and sends you a daily summary. Only what genuinely needs you gets escalated.

  3. 03

    Retention check-ins that actually go out

    Missed-week prompts, milestone notes, and win-back messages drafted on a schedule from your activity data, sent from you, approved in one tap.

  4. 04

    A site that ranks for your city and your modality

    A studio website on your brand, connected to your booking platform, built to rank for the neighbourhood and the class type, with content and social drafted for your review.

S.03What we measure

What changes when it works.

Potential, not a promise. We set your baseline before anything is built, then measure the same things after, in writing.

Every call
Inquiry calls answered after hours and between classes, counted against the ones that used to reach voicemail.
Desk hours
Owner hours at the desk per day, before and after, and how many go back to teaching and the floor.
Retention
Members who lapse after month three, measured against your baseline.
