Online booking service
The client picks a slot that is genuinely free and gets a confirmation on the spot. No agreeing times by hand, no double bookings.

- Timeline2–3 weeks
- Supportfrom $120/mo
Who this suits: Practices, studios and consultants where time is the product and half the admin is agreeing when, reminding, then rescheduling.
What is in the first version
- availability calendar
- confirmation and reminders
- prepayment and rescheduling
- specialist view
The figures above are the package this sits on: Company website. Anything past its edges the calculator adds before the work starts, not after.
How the path goes
- 01
The slot shown actually exists
Availability is computed from working hours, existing bookings, buffers and the specialist’s own calendar, in the client’s time zone.
- 02
Booking ends in a confirmation
The slot is held the moment they tap, or they are told at once that it is not.
- 03
A reminder arrives before it matters
With a one-tap way to move it, because most no-shows are people who cannot say they are not coming.
What decides whether this works or annoys people
Two people, one slot, same second
The whole system is judged on this case, and it is solved by a database lock, not an interface check.
Booking that happens outside the system
Manual entry and reading the personal calendar are in the first version, or the clash arrives from real life instead of code.
The rules for moving it
How late is too late, what happens to a prepayment, how many times: written into the system rather than renegotiated weekly.
What to measure once it is live
- bookings made without a message
- no-show rate
- reschedules by clients
- admin hours returned
Why this comes out faster
The shape of this one is known: the states, the edge cases and the things that usually go wrong have been decided before. Nothing here is a template, and the saving is not in your half of the work. It goes into your process, your content and the systems this has to talk to, which is the part nobody can have solved in advance.
A likely stack for this
Picked against the task when we scope it, not decided in advance. This is the shelf it usually comes off.

Price it yourself, right here
Five steps, and you can see the number without leaving a contact. The estimate accounts for the kind of work, what you already have and what it will need inside.
These bills do not come from us
- Hosting and the server it runs on
- The domain, registered to your business
- Payment provider fees on prepayments
- SMS reminders sent by an operator
Asked before the first call
- Why not Calendly?
- If it fits, use it, and we will say so. This is for what it does not cover: several specialists, prepayment, your own rules, or booking inside your own product.
- Can it handle several specialists and different services?
- Yes, and that is the ordinary case: each has their own hours, services and appointment length. Availability is computed per person, and the client picks a specialist or the nearest time.
- Can it go on the site we already have?
- Yes, as a section on a page, usually cheaper than a separate service. If the schedule already lives in another system, we agree first which of the two is in charge.
