Openlate

A full diary, and customers who arrive

Customers book from WhatsApp, your website, Instagram or email. Every booking lands in one calendar, with a reminder before the day and a deposit if you want one.

Sound familiar?

  • “It takes six messages to agree on a time, and then they don't arrive.”

  • “I double-booked Saturday because one booking was on Instagram and one was on WhatsApp.”

  • “A no-show costs me the slot and the customer I turned away.”

How it works

  1. We set up your calendar

    Your hours, your services, how long each one takes and who does it.

  2. Customers book on any channel

    The assistant offers your open times and books the one they choose.

  3. Everything lands in one calendar

    No double bookings. Changes and cancellations update it too.

  4. Reminders and deposits

    A reminder goes out before the day, and a deposit holds the slot if you want one.
