Reminders go out automatically. Receipts are sent. Follow-ups land. You do nothing.
Near-zero no-showsWhy switch?
SimplyBook.me wasn't built for India
Great for European salons. Not so great when your clients pay via UPI and read WhatsApp, not email.
Opaque pricing
SimplyBook hides real costs behind a 14-day trial and complex add-on modules. You don't know what you'll pay until you're already invested.
Complex setup
"Full customization step-by-step" sounds great until you're 45 minutes into configuration wizards for features you'll never use.
No India payments
No UPI. No Razorpay. No GST invoices. SimplyBook was built for Western markets — Indian clients can't pay the way they want to.
24/5 support + trial pressure
Support vanishes on weekends. And the 14-day trial clock starts ticking the moment you sign up — convert or lose everything.
Integrations
Connect the tools you already use
Google Calendar, Razorpay, WhatsApp, UPI — no complex widget embeds or API keys needed.

Indian Professionals Trust Book A Sloth
Coaches, consultants, therapists, freelancers — professionals who chose simplicity over feature bloat.
Half my day used to go in 'is a cabin free at 4?' WhatsApps. Now people just book it themselves.
Clients book site-visit slots straight off my link and pay upfront. No more chasing dates over WhatsApp.
I send the link, they pick a slot, payment's sorted before the call. No more awkward money talk.
Set up my weekend mentoring in one evening and kind of forgot about it. Slots fill, money's already in.
My patients forget appointments easily. The reminder texts have honestly been a lifesaver.
Stuck the link in my Insta bio. Looks way better than sending a GPay QR after the call.
Honestly I picked it because 0% commission. I charge for audits and Sloth doesn't take a cut.
I run mentoring calls on the side — slots fill, payment's sorted, zero admin after work hours.
