We didn’t want to build software.
We just wanted to run it.
We were 3 friends who dreamt of having a karaoke venue. But we had to build the system ourselves. And it changed everything.
The Search
We never wanted to build a panel. We wanted to rent one. But in 2023, the market gave us three terrible options. Sound familiar?
🦖 THE DINOSAUR
Outdated & Functionless.
(Looks like Windows 98)
“We can’t use it because it’s obsolete.”
🏢 THE CORPORATE
Too Expensive.
Costs a fortune monthly
“We can’t use it because we’d rather build our own.”
🧩 THE PLUG-IN
Just a Toy.
Not a real feature.
“We can’t use it because it’s a gimmick.”
We got sick of the compromise. We wanted Dynamic Pricing + Online Shop + Auto-Invoices and more.
Nobody had it all.
So we decided to stop complaining and start building.
The build
Myth:
“We coded it ourselves in a weekend.”
Reality:
It took 6 months, cost a lot of money, and we hired a whole software house.
But we had an unfair advantage. 15 years ago, we built our first booking panel from scratch.
We knew exactly what we needed. We knew where the other guys failed.
