About

Business Box is booking software for small service businesses in Japan. Publish a booking page with one link per appointment type, each with its own length, price, questions and hours, and customers book themselves into your real availability. It stays in step with Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook (including Microsoft 365): existing events block out times, and each booking is written into your calendar with a Google Meet or Microsoft Teams link. Take card payment in yen before the slot is confirmed, straight into your own Stripe account with no commission, or show the price and collect it in person. Japanese public holidays, including substitute holidays, close your diary automatically. Booking pages, confirmations and reminders work in English and Japanese, following each customer's language. A REST API with webhooks is available on every plan. The free plan has no time limit and needs no card; taking card payment online is ¥1,200 a month, tax included.

About

Pronto is a booking, CRM and POS platform for service businesses — salons, barbershops, spas, dental clinics, fitness studios, auto repair shops, cafes and tattoo studios. It combines online booking, a calendar, POS, client CRM, inventory management and automated client notifications in one system. Clients book online with just a name and phone number — no account required — and business owners keep 100% of their revenue with zero commission on bookings. Free automated reminders go out over Email, Telegram, WhatsApp and Viber, covering confirmations, 24-hour and 1-hour reminders, thank-you messages, re-engagement and birthday greetings. Available as a hosted SaaS with a free plan and paid plans from $19/month. For technical teams that want full control of their data, it's also available as a free, self-hosted deployment (open source, MIT license).
