Before we wrote a single line of code
We asked one question.
Why is booking someone’s time still so complicated?
A freelancer jumps between WhatsApp and Google Calendar. A coach manually sends payment links. A photographer confirms appointments through Instagram DMs. A doctor keeps three different diaries. A consultant copies Zoom links into emails all day. Everyone has built their own system, and almost nobody enjoys using it.
The problem wasn’t a lack of software
It was too much software.
| Need | Usually Requires |
|---|---|
| Accept bookings | One app |
| Collect payments | Another app |
| Block calendar | Google Calendar |
| Video meetings | Google Meet or Zoom |
| Send reminders | WhatsApp or Email |
| Track customers | Spreadsheet or CRM |
| Manage everything | Your brain 🧠 |
By the end of the day, you are not running your business. You are managing your tools, and the tools are winning.
Your job is to serve people. Our job is to make booking disappear into the background.
That’s why we’re building Book A Sloth
Not another productivity app. Not another calendar. Not another CRM. A place where your business simply works.
Imagine sharing one link. Your customer picks a time, pays online, receives confirmations, gets reminders, joins the meeting, and leaves a review, and you never had to chase them once. That is the experience we are chasing, and we are doing it at 0% commission.

Why “Sloth”?
People ask us this a lot, and the answer surprises them. The sloth is not slow because it is lazy. It is deliberate. It wastes almost no energy, and every movement has a purpose.
That is the philosophy we want for business software. Not more dashboards, not more notifications, not more complexity. Just thoughtful software that gets out of your way.
Building in public
Every Friday, we publish what changed. Sometimes a shiny new feature, sometimes a bug that taught us something, sometimes a full redesign because we got it wrong the first time. You see the wins, and you also see the rewrites, because that is what building software actually looks like. Here is why we write it all down.
Help creators, professionals and small businesses spend less time managing bookings, and more time doing the work they love.
Our North Star
What’s next?
Next, the first major milestone: how we build services that take under five minutes to publish. The journey starts here. Welcome aboard, and if you would rather jump in than read along, claim your page. 🦥
