Deep dive

Skaala vs Timma — a detailed comparison

Timma is a well-established Swedish booking platform, especially popular in beauty and wellness. With commission-based pricing (from 0 kr/mo) and POS integration, Timma is a strong choice for salons wanting online booking. But Timma completely lacks AI phone answering — all customers who call instead of booking online are lost if no one answers.

This is where Skaala perfectly complements. While Timma handles web booking, Skaala's AI answers phone calls 24/7, books automatically, and follows up with SMS. Skaala also has built-in CRM with contact scoring — a feature Timma does not offer. The combination of Timma and Skaala covers all booking channels: web, phone, and follow-up.

Skaala costs $29/mo at a flat rate — no commission per booking. If you want to replace Timma entirely, Skaala includes online booking, AI phone answering, CRM, and payments in one platform. Try free for 7 days and stop missing phone customers.
