Simplifythis

Simplifythis is an online system that handles bookings, billing and reminders for small businesses that sell their time by appointment or class. Clients book and pay through their own portal, while the business keeps its calendar, client records and invoices in one place. Card payments go through Stripe, and a single founder builds the product and works directly with its users.
