One foundation, many professions

What every DayBook does

Every DayBook shares the same proven core. On top of it we build the details your profession needs.

A diary for the whole team

Everyone side by side, with buffers, holidays and closures, and double-bookings made impossible.

Complete client records

Contact details, alerts, history and documents, found in seconds by name, date of birth, phone or postcode.

Recalls that bring people back

Due dates set for you, then emails, texts and letters in a few clicks, with a clear view of who booked.

Online booking, your branding

Clients book around the clock on your own web address, straight into your real availability.

Reminders that cut no-shows

Confirmations with calendar invites, and reminders by email and text the day before.

Data protection built in

Subject access, erasure and retention handled in a few steps, keeping every record the law requires.

Our approach

Built for one profession at a time

General booking tools make you bend your business to fit them. A DayBook speaks your profession's language from the first screen.

  • Appointment types, staff roles and recall rules your profession already uses
  • The records, alerts and documents you are expected to keep
  • Ready the same day, with a setup wizard and spreadsheet import
  • Every feature on every plan, with no setup fee

Your profession next?

In planning

We are choosing which professions to build for next. If your business runs on appointments and you are tired of making do, tell us what you need.

Getting started

Ready the same day

Nothing to install. Every DayBook runs in a web browser on any computer, tablet or phone.

  1. Set up

    Your branches, team, opening hours and appointment types, one question at a time.

  2. Bring your clients

    Import your client list and future appointments from a spreadsheet.

  3. Invite your team

    Each person signs in as themselves, with two-factor authentication.

  4. Take bookings

    Switch on online booking in your branding, on your own web address.

Security

Built for sensitive data from day one

Our customers hold health and personal information, so protecting it is part of the product, not an extra.

  • Hosted in the UK, encrypted at rest and in transit
  • Two-factor sign-in for every account
  • Every record opening and change logged
  • Our staff cannot sign in as you or see your clients
