A simpler starting point
See the tools and the price before you commit.
Mindbody positions its plans through a personalised demo. That can make sense for a tailored enterprise setup, but it makes a straightforward comparison harder for a small business.
Ovatu’s plans are public. Start the full system without a card, build your calendar and booking flow, and decide from there.
Built for your business
Built for the business you run every day
Everything about a client, in one file

Forms that fit your workflow
Create consultation, consent and aftercare forms, then attach them to the services that need them.

Keep clients coming back

Switching, even if you are mid-contract
We can prepare your Ovatu account and import your data while you work through the timing of your existing agreement. When you are ready, the move is straightforward.
