Built for dive centers,
not generic booking
Open any booking without losing your place.
A party's whole booking — five days, every activity, every guest's gear — opens over the calendar you were working. Close it and the calendar is exactly where you left it.
- A whole group's stay in one drawer, not five screens
- Add a dive to any day, assign gear to any guest, without leaving it
- The week you were working is still underneath, unmoved
The whole day, on one screen, before the first tank is loaded.
Pick a date. Every activity, every arrival, every rental and every thing that still needs a decision re-keys to that day — in one view your dock staff can run from.
- Run sheet, guest board, on-duty crew and gear split, side by side
- Filter to one location without losing the rest of the shop
- Needs-attention queue grouped by activity, so nothing is a scavenger hunt
Ask it a question instead of hunting through screens.
One shortcut, anywhere in the app. Type a diver, a boat, a date — and get an answer, not a list of links to go read.
- Divers, bookings, gear and staff in one palette
- A date is a question: it answers with what's still bookable that day
- Preview a diver's upcoming bookings without leaving the screen you're on
Everything else that's already in the box
