What Slate does, screen by screen

Bookings, memberships, payments, email, the front desk, staff clock-in, the safety paperwork and the numbers. Here is what each one looks like.

The overview

Today, on one screen

Sessions, check-ins and takings, side by side. Open Slate in the morning and you know how the day is shaping up.

The timetable

Build your week once, then reuse it

Lay out the week for each location on a calendar and copy it into the weeks ahead in a few clicks. When you move or cancel a booking, the customer gets the right email and the right refund.

On your own site

Booking that looks like your studio

The booking page sits inside your website, in your colours, and works as well on a phone as a laptop. Customers book and pay without leaving your site.

Read the room

A clear read on the last 30 days

Takings, how full your sessions were and how many new customers came, each set against the period before, so you can see what is working and what needs a nudge.

Your studio, in plain English

Ask a question, get a straight answer

Ask about takings, quiet customers or your busiest hours and get the number back. No spreadsheets, no exports.

Many platforms take a cut of every booking. Slate never will.

Your website, your payments, your customers. Card payments go straight into your own Stripe account. Stripe charges its usual card fee and Slate adds nothing on top.
