Project Overview

The engagement

A configurable appointment platform for clinics, salons, coaches and multi-staff studios — services, staff, resources, deposits and reminders in one clean flow.

Client Challenge

Where they were stuck

  • Off-the-shelf booking tools don't handle multi-service, multi-staff rules.
  • No-shows quietly eat 15–20% of revenue.
  • Manual reminders don't scale beyond a few dozen bookings a day.
Our Solution

What we built

  • Service + staff + resource matching in real time.
  • Deposit or full-payment at booking.
  • SMS / WhatsApp / email reminders with confirmation replies.
  • Waitlist and cancellation auto-fill.
