Overview

Front Desk provides cloud-based and mobile applications that let yoga studios, gyms, tour operators, music schools, tutoring centers, and other personal-services businesses manage class scheduling, client sign-ups, and billing in one system. Its product suite includes dedicated staff apps, new-client signup tools, and client sign-in features, all tied to an integrated payments engine. About 1,000 businesses across 20 countries currently run on the platform, and the company expects to process more than $100 million in payments for them this year. Front Desk earns revenue through tiered subscription plans that start at $45 per month and through a percentage fee on transaction volume, aligning its economics with customer growth. With fresh capital, the company plans to double its engineering and marketing headcount by year-end, accelerate product development, and expand global marketing efforts. Launched less than a year ago, Front Desk has raised $7.2 million to date, positioning it to capture a larger share of the personal-services management market.
