Comparison
“I use Calendly or Acuity for bookings but everything else about my business lives somewhere else.”
Said plainly, because it is true — and because you should switch for a real reason or not at all.
This is the honest comparison — not feature against feature, but your whole bill against one platform. Check each row against what you pay today.
| Also paying for | Included here |
|---|---|
| The customer record behind the booking | Bookers are real contacts with history, notes, orders and messages — not rows in a scheduling tool. See how → |
| Deposits and payments | Deposits collected through your own Stripe, with the booking created only once payment confirms. See how → |
| Rooms and equipment | Resources book exactly like people, so a session cannot be placed in an occupied room. See how → |
| Follow-up and marketing | Reminders, sequences and campaigns from your own domain and number, tied to the same customer. See how → |
| Everything after the appointment | Quotes, invoices, delivery plans, documents and a member portal for the relationship that follows. See how → |
Most operational software assumes your website is somebody else’s problem. Here the public site and the business system are one thing: a form fill, a booking, an event registration and a quiz answer all land on the same customer record with no integration to maintain.
You connect your own processor and money moves directly to you. We are never in the flow of funds and never take a percentage of your revenue.
The front end is MIT-licensed code in your own repository, and your customer data exports on demand. Leaving is a decision, not a negotiation.
Seats are free, so hiring a fifth crew member is an operations decision instead of a budget one. You pay for what genuinely costs money to run — storage, AI and heavy processing — not for how many people are allowed to log in.
Generate a site with Lovable, v0, Bolt, Claude or Cursor and connect it to the same backend — or start from our template and customize it beyond recognition while still receiving upstream improvements.
Switching business software is disruptive and sometimes the wrong call. These are the cases where we would tell you to keep what you have.
The booking is the beginning of a customer relationship rather than a calendar entry: the person becomes a contact with history, the deposit becomes an order on real books, the reminder comes from your own number, and everything after — quotes, delivery, documents, a portal — lives in the same place.
Yes. Public booking is zero-login by design, and customers manage or reschedule through a secure link in their confirmation.
Read what the platform actually does, see a site that was built on it, and decide from evidence rather than a sales call.
