People book the desk, not a guess

Built for you

Built for every kind of calligraphy & lettering business

Modern calligraphy, week one

Beginners need a nib, a holder and room to move an arm. Cap the class at the desks that give them that, and the page stops selling a ninth place.

Copperplate, the slow one

Pointed pen students come back week after week. A standing weekly booking holds the same desk for them without you retyping it each Sunday night.

Brush lettering on a Saturday

Saturday classes fill fast and then keep selling. Set the cap at the desks in the room and the last place closes the class without you watching it.

Envelope addressing before a wedding

A bride books six places for her bridesmaids in one go. All six count against the same class, so nobody arrives to a bench with four chairs left.

The left-handed nib set

You own three oblique holders that suit a left-hander. Keep that class small and the page will not sell a fourth place you cannot kit out.

The eight-week beginner course

A course sells as one enrolment rather than eight separate nights, so a student who starts on Foundational is there for the whole run.

A hen party wanting place cards

Quote for the tutor time, the ink and the sheets, then turn the accepted quote into the booking rather than typing the whole afternoon out twice.

The quiet Tuesday practice night

Practice nights sit on the same timetable as the taught classes, so an empty bench is visible now and not at seven o’clock on the night.

Calligraphy: built around the desks you have.

You count the desks once. After that the class closes itself, so the tutor is not pulling a spare chair up to a bench that fits eight.

  • Options, with Pro

    Run drop-in calligraphy classes, weekly places, private lettering workshops and longer beginner courses together. A quote covers the work that sits outside a standard desk place, like gilding or a hired room.

Schedule

The count you make kits against

Every workshop shows its paid places, so the night before you sit down knowing you are cutting paper and matching nibs for eight, ten and six rather than for a rough idea.

Instant booking

Two places, bought as a present

One person takes both places on the date, pays for them and notes who the second is for, so a birthday gift becomes two names on your list instead of a message you have to chase.

Get paid

Kits made up for people who have paid

The place is charged at booking and the session closes at your cut-off, so nothing lands after you have assembled. A workplace evening goes out as an itemised quote.

Less admin, more bookings

Made for calligraphy & lettering businesses

Nibs, ink and desks, sorted early

The day lists each calligraphy class, the tutor on it, the desks still open and what has been paid, so nothing is counted at the door.

  • The cap is already countedConfirmed places have come off availability, so nobody is walking the benches with a pencil ten minutes before the first exercise.
  • The right tutor is on itA class only opens where a tutor who teaches it is working, so a swapped Thursday does not leave a room of beginners with nobody at the front.
  • Regulars are already thereWeekly and monthly standing bookings appear on the future timetable on their own, holding the same desk without anyone typing it again.

The last angled desk, then no more

Students see the desks genuinely left in a calligraphy class. When the last one goes, the class stops selling places online.

  • One number, everyone sees itThe count on the public page is the count in the room, including places taken together in a single group booking.
  • No hopeful ninth placeA full class stays full. The hard stop protects the desks, the elbow room a pointed pen needs, and the attention each student gets.
  • The quiet nights stay visibleOpen places sit beside the full classes rather than behind them, so a student shut out of Saturday can find the Tuesday instead.

Class fee sits on the desk place

Take the calligraphy class fee by card with Pro, or record cash and bank transfer by hand on Free. Either way the paid status sits on the place.

  • Paid as the place is takenWith Pro the student pays by card while choosing the desk, so the class list and its paid column arrive at the same moment.
  • The cash tin still countsSomeone paying at the door in cash or by bank transfer is recorded by hand on Free, and the booking shows as settled from then on.
  • Private work gets a quoteItemise a private lettering workshop: tutor time, nibs and ink, practice sheets and the extra hour, then hold the agreed figure against the booking.

One app for every booking

Everything you need to run your calligraphy & lettering business.

Online booking

Someone picks a calligraphy class, takes the desk place they need, and the count of open desks drops for everyone else looking at the same page.

Scheduling

Every calligraphy class, the tutor taking it and each booked desk sit on one timetable, so a full bench and a half-empty one are equally plain.

Capacity that holds

Set each class to the desks you can seat and ink. Confirmed places come off that count, and booking closes the moment the last one goes.

Email reminders

Switch on the confirmation and the reminder, and each student is sent the class time, the address and what to bring without you chasing anyone.

Customers

Every class a student has taken, what they paid and the notes you kept sit on one record, so a beginner coming back is not a stranger to you.

Estimates

Build a quote for a private lettering workshop line by line: tutor time, nibs and ink, practice sheets and the room, before anything is booked.

Team

Set each tutor’s real hours and the classes they take. A class only opens for booking when the tutor and the desks are both free that evening.

Payments

Record cash or bank transfer by hand on Free, or take the class fee by card with Pro at the moment the student takes the desk place.

Common questions.

Yes. Set the capacity to the desks you can seat and ink; confirmed bookings come off that number and booking closes on the final desk place.

Yes. One booking can take more than one desk place, and every place counts against the same class capacity.

Yes. Set a weekly or monthly standing booking that ends never, on a date, or after a chosen number of sessions. It appears on the timetable ahead of time.

Cancelling releases that desk place back to the class, so the timetable and the number of places still open stay correct without anyone editing them.

Yes. Switch on the confirmation and the reminder and each student is sent the class time and what to bring. Both ship switched off until you turn them on.

Card payment as they book comes with Pro. On Free you record cash and bank transfer by hand against the booking, and the paid status sits on the place.
