What it looks like in your business

Same tool, very different weeks. Find yours below — each one is a short walkthrough of how the work actually runs.

Agencies, studios & consultancies

Clients see progress. Your margins stay yours.

How it runs
  1. 1
    A lead fills your intake form

    You get the contact and a ready-made project — no copy-paste.

  2. 2
    They sign the quote online

    One click turns the accepted quote into the invoice.

  3. 3
    The client follows along from their side

    They see stages move; your hours and costs stay private.

  4. 4
    They approve, you bill

    Sign-off closes the work and your invoice lands in their books.

  5. 5
    Retainers run themselves

    Each month's project and invoice — with unbilled hours — go out on their own.

Contractors, cleaners, landscapers, HVAC

Crews, vans and jobs on one board

How it runs
  1. 1
    The job comes in

    A form or a phone call becomes a job with your standard checklist.

  2. 2
    Crew and van get booked together

    One schedule for people and equipment — clashes are blocked.

  3. 3
    The field runs on phones

    Site photos land on the job; equipment checks out and in with mileage.

  4. 4
    Invoice when it's done

    Materials and hours are already on the job — send it and get paid by card.

Accountants, lawyers, advisors

Less admin between you and the billable hour

How it runs
  1. 1
    Intake is a form, not an email chain

    New client, engagement letter, and the matter — created together.

  2. 2
    Clients book you online

    Real video links, reminders, and a calendar that respects your buffers.

  3. 3
    Time bills through

    Timers per matter; unbilled hours sweep onto the monthly invoice.

  4. 4
    The books close properly

    Journals, locked periods, and statements that reconcile — your own standards.

Salons, coaches, clinics, instructors

Clients book and pay themselves

How it runs
  1. 1
    They pick a time on your page

    Paid upfront if you want — the slot holds while the card goes through.

  2. 2
    Reminders send themselves

    And clients reschedule themselves, up to your cutoff.

  3. 3
    Packages and classes too

    Sell 10 sessions upfront; full classes run a waitlist that fills itself.

  4. 4
    The books are already done

    Every booking is a paid, categorized entry — see revenue any day.

Equipment, vehicles, spaces

What's out, what's back, what needs cleaning

How it runs
  1. 1
    List your fleet

    Each van, room or machine gets its own calendar and details.

  2. 2
    Customers book on a public page

    Your rates, your rules — the booking raises a real invoice.

  3. 3
    Check out, check in

    Who had it, condition before and after, mileage, late returns.

  4. 4
    Returns trigger turnover

    Came back dirty? It pauses its own bookings and creates the cleaning task.

Recruiters & placement agencies

Show the client progress — never your pipeline

How it runs
  1. 1
    The role is shared with the client

    They watch it move: sourcing, screening, shortlist, offer.

  2. 2
    Your candidates stay invisible

    Your pipeline is yours until you share a candidate — one at a time.

  3. 3
    Interviews book themselves

    A link that only offers times the whole panel is free.

  4. 4
    Placement closes with sign-off

    Their approval closes the role and green-lights your fee.
