Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly becoming democratized amongst the general public and proving to be a powerful tool for business owners. In fact, it’s seemingly impossible to go a day without hearing some mention of it. The name artificial intelligence might spark some feelings of uncertainty or skepticism, depending on who you’re talking to, but technological advancements can be used to your advantage—especially if you own a business.
While AI shouldn’t—and can’t—replace you as a business owner, it can be used as an immediate time saver for your tedious admin tasks. Wouldn’t it be great if your business management software offered AI capabilities for such things? With Vagaro AI, you can now get quick assistance for crafting things like:

This latest addition to Vagaro is incredibly exciting, so let’s go over the basics of how you can make it work for you.
What is AI (and How Does it Work?)
Simply put, AI refers to the development of computer systems that can perform tasks typically required by a human. Similar to how you might’ve learned how to ride a bike, AI is like teaching a computer how to learn and make decisions based on certain examples and tests that you provide it with.1
For example, imagine you want to create an AI that can recognize cats in pictures. In order to achieve this, you have to show your AI program numerous cat pictures and say, "These are cats", helping the program understand what a cat looks like. If it makes mistakes, you correct them, and the AI gets better because it actually learns. AI is incredibly versatile, too. It can be used for something as simple as helping you write a birthday card or more in-depth tasks like accurately predicting the weather forecast. Given its recent & rapid growth, it’s safe to assume that as time goes on, the usage of AI in our everyday lives will only increase.
Now that we’ve peeked under the hood of what AI actually is, let’s see what you can do with the new Vagaro AI.
What You Can Do with Vagaro AI
Vagaro AI takes the guessing game out of things like writing bios, cancellation policies, service descriptions, and much more. Now when you come to a field that requires a blurb of text in Vagaro, you’ll see the following icon:
You’ll have a couple of options at this point. You can either:
A: Leave the text field blank and let Vagaro AI generate something for you (available in certain text fields) or...
B: Type in a quick description, like “My name is Zach. I’ve been a personal trainer for 8 years. I specialize in group classes and training” of which Vagaro AI can provide a more polished version.
Want a real example? We plugged the previous statement into Vagaro AI and this is how it enhanced it:
Enhanced with Vagaro AI:
“Zach is an 8-year experienced personal trainer who specializes in group classes and tailored workouts. He is dedicated to helping clients achieve their fitness goals through personalized coaching and a supportive environment. Contact Zach today to start your fitness journey and reach your full potential.”
Pretty convenient, right? It doesn’t stop there, though. While generating something using Vagaro AI, you can choose from eight different tones and five different length options. If you think the AI-generated text needs a bit of tweaking, you can use the Regenerate option to create an alternate variation of the provided text. Once you’re happy with what you’ve got, just click or tap Use this Text, and you’ll have successfully used Vagaro AI!
