Use cases

Built for any business that runs on appointments or seats

Two booking modes cover a wide range of businesses. If you book people into a calendar, use appointments. If you sell places at dated sessions, use seated events. Many businesses need both, and one install handles it.

Appointments mode

You book people into time

Services with a duration and price, staff with their own hours, and customers who choose a slot. The form shows only the times that are open for the person and service selected.

Schedopia booking form, step 1 of 3: a grid of services filtered by category, each showing duration, staff count and price.
  • Salons and barbershops

    Stylists with their own hours, services grouped by type, add-ons such as a beard trim on top of a cut.

  • Spas and beauty studios

    Longer treatments with buffers between them, so rooms have time to turn over.

  • Dentists and health clinics

    Practitioners with different availability, reminders that reduce no-shows, and records that stay on your own server.

  • Therapists and coaches

    One-to-one sessions, weekly hours, days off, and customers who can cancel themselves within your rules.

  • Tutors and instructors

    Lesson types with different durations and prices, booked in the student’s timezone.

  • Consultants and freelancers

    A discovery call and a paid consultation as separate services, with your calendar feed kept in sync.

  • Repair and home services

    Slots per technician with capacity, so two jobs can be taken in the same window when the team allows.

Seated events mode

You sell places at dated sessions

A venue with one or more halls, a seat map you draw yourself, and tiers with their own prices. Customers browse upcoming sessions, see how many seats remain, and pick the exact ones they want.

Schedopia event booking, step 1 of 3: upcoming sessions with date, venue and hall, duration, live seats-left count and a from price.
  • Yoga and fitness studios

    Dated classes with a fixed number of places. Members reserve a spot and see how many remain.

  • Cookery and craft workshops

    One-off sessions with a station per seat. Sell exactly as many places as you have benches.

  • Community centres

    Several halls in one venue, each with its own layout, hosting different sessions on the same evening.

  • Small theatres and event spaces

    A drawn seat map with VIP, Standard and Balcony tiers, live availability, and no seat sold twice.

Both at once

A studio that teaches one-to-one and runs Saturday classes

Pick both in the setup wizard. Private lessons go through the appointment form on one page, and the class timetable, with a fixed number of seats per session, goes through the event form on another. One admin, one customer list, one set of emails.
