CRM for Studios
One Platform for the Whole Studio Bookings, clients, and payments in sync.
Whether you run a photo studio, a yoga studio, a dance studio, or a recording studio — the headaches rhyme. Bookings in one tool, clients in another, payments in a third. Desert Labs brings the whole studio into one platform built for the way you actually work.

Sound familiar?
Running a studios business shouldn't feel like this
Different tools for different services
Sessions, packages, classes, rentals — each lives in a different system. Cross-referencing one client across all of it is a small archaeology project.
Front desk shouldn't need a manual
New team members spend their first week learning four logins. The booking flow takes too long. Customers feel it.
Customer history vanishes
Who's a regular? Who hasn't booked in 90 days? Without a real client record, every customer is a stranger.
Everything you need
Built for the way studios actually work
Unified booking across services
Photo sessions, yoga classes, dance lessons, room rentals — all bookable from one branded site. Customers see your full menu.
Replaces: MindBody, Acuity, separate booking pages
Customer profiles that follow them
Every booking, payment, and note attached to one customer. The front desk opens the profile and instantly knows the history.
Replaces: Spreadsheets, paper files
Invoicing & memberships
Drop-in payments via Stripe, package sales, deposits, and refund tracking — all tied to the booking. Membership and recurring billing on the roadmap.
Replaces: Square, manual ledgers
Automated reminders & follow-ups
Pre-booking confirmation, reminder the day before, rebook nudge a month later. Customers come back without you lifting a finger.
Replaces: Mailchimp, manual texts
