01 · The Problem
What members see · what staff fight

The schedule is on a chalkboard.
The iPad is flat again.
The cleaning rota's a clipboard.

01
Stale schedules
A swap on Mindbody is gold dust until someone walks the floor and re-writes the chalk.
02
Dead iPads
Charging cables on the studio floor. Tablets walk off. Batteries die before the 6am class.
03
Reformer bingo
Members hover by Bike 6 — assigned to someone who didn't show. Awkward shuffle, every class.
04
Clipboard hygiene
"Last cleaned at..." is a biro on a sheet on a hook. Members read it, frown, and book elsewhere.

02 · The Product
One panel · one dashboard

A label that
thinks like the schedule.

An e-ink display the size of a paperback. Sticks on a studio door, a bike, a reformer, a locker bank. Updated from one web dashboard — front desk, your phone, anywhere.

03 · How It Works
One dashboard. Every panel.

Mindbody updates once.
The door, the bike, the locker all know.

Step 01
Connect
Mindbody, ClassPass, Mariana Tek, Glofox — plug in once at setup.
Step 02
Place panels
Studio door, locker bank, reformer end-cap, lobby capacity board.
Step 03
Run the studio
Trainer swaps, cancellations, locker turnover — all flow through your existing tools.
Step 04
Panels follow
No app on a member's phone. No iPad to charge. Print-quality, on the wall.

The class
and who's teaching it.

Pulled live from your booking system. Class, time, instructor, capacity. When Mara swaps with Esme at 6am — the door is right by the time the first member walks in.

Bike 06 knows

A small label at every station. Member name, class, lap or springs preset. No more peering at iPad clipboards on the front desk — members walk in and find their spot.

06 · Lockers & Cleaning
Assigned · cleaned · timestamped

Locker 14: yours,
cleaned at 18:02.

Members swipe in, the panel assigns. Cleaners tap a NFC fob; the timestamp goes on the panel — and into the audit trail. The "last cleaned" question stops being a clipboard.

One look in the lobby,
the studio answered.

A larger panel by the front desk: every studio's current class, capacity, instructor, next-up. Members orient themselves; staff field fewer questions.

Quiet · paper-calm · cheap to run

A screen that disappears,
not one more thing to look at.

No glow
Reads like a card
No backlight in a savasana — your members rest, not squint.
Wipe-clean
Sweat-rated
Spray, wipe, move on. Spec'd to live next to a reformer.
Battery
Months, not hours
No cable on the lockers, no socket at the studio door.
