Your studio is fully booked.
Your systems shouldn't be.
Slot-based bookings, self-booking for clients, back-to-back session management, album expiry controls, physical product orders, and contractor coordination — all running from one platform. So you can step back without losing oversight.
Built for studios like yours
The Real Problem
You built the studio.
Now the admin is running you.
A physical studio should be a machine — sessions flow in, clients leave happy, revenue is predictable. Instead, you're manually verifying bank transfers, chasing deposits, and rebuilding your calendar every time something changes.
Confirming bookings means checking your bank manually
Client pays via GCash or bank transfer, sends a screenshot, and someone on your team manually checks the bank to verify before confirming the slot. It's slow, it's error-prone, and it creates a gap between payment and confirmation that frustrates clients.
Your calendar is a color-coded spreadsheet you built yourself
You created a system that works — until someone double-books, a tentative slot doesn't convert, or you need to open specific weekends for a seasonal campaign. A DIY calendar can't handle what a growing studio needs.
Tentative bookings fall through with no automated follow-up
A client pencil-books a slot. They haven't paid the deposit yet. Your team has to remember to follow up, remind them, and manually release the slot if they don't convert — every single time.
Seasonal campaigns need date-specific slot control you don't have
Christmas shoots in November and December. Valentine's mini sessions on specific weekends. You want to open only those dates — but your current setup is all-or-nothing. Managing exceptions is entirely manual.
Album expiry and re-enable is a completely manual process
You give clients a 2-week access window. When it expires, they have to pay to re-enable. Right now that means tracking expiry dates, manually unpublishing, and processing re-enable requests one by one — every time.
Contractor workload has no visibility until someone is overloaded
You have 20 on-call photographers and videographers. Figuring out who's available, who's overloaded, and who to reassign requires checking manually across all bookings — reactively, not proactively.

Albums that expire automatically. And earn again when re-enabled.
You already have the right business model — clients get a 2-week access window, then they pay to re-enable. The problem is you're managing it entirely by hand: tracking expiry dates, manually unpublishing galleries, and processing re-enable requests one by one.
Simplifi Studio automates the entire cycle. Set the access window once. The album publishes when the session is delivered, counts down automatically, and unpublishes when the window closes. When a client wants to re-enable — they pay, you approve, it's back online. No manual tracking. No missed expiries. A revenue model that runs itself.
- ✓ Custom access window per album — set it once
- ✓ Auto-publish on delivery, auto-unpublish on expiry
- ✓ Client pays to re-enable — your exact monetization model
- ✓ Download tracking: know when the client accessed files
- ✓ Internal review gate — approve before client can view
- ✓ Access control: only the client you specify can open the link

Studio Stories
Studios that made the switch
"We were manually verifying every single bank transfer before confirming a slot. With 9 sessions a day, that's 9 manual checks. Simplifi eliminated that entirely — payment comes in, slot confirms, client gets notified. Our staff now has time for actual client work."
"The album expiry feature matched exactly how we already operated — we just weren't automating it. Now the 2-week window runs itself. Clients who want to re-enable pay, we approve, it's back online. We stopped losing re-enable revenue to clients we simply forgot to follow up with."
"I have 20 on-call photographers. Before Simplifi, I was always finding out someone was overloaded after it was already a problem. The workboard lets me see who has capacity before I assign the next booking. I stopped firefighting and started planning."
