One app, two ways to book

Most shoots need more than a room. Book the people, too.

Same hourly slots, same upfront pricing, same chat and receipts — whether you're booking a studio or the people to fill it.

Shoot, record, rehearse or host in a room that's actually free when you need it.

How it works

From first tap to a confirmed slot.

01

Start with what your shoot needs

One app for the room and the people. Pick Spaces or Talent, then a category, and you're browsing.

Studios, podcast rooms, workshop venues and event spaces — by the hour.

Photographers, makeup artists, models, anchors, stylists, influencers, hostesses and production companies — by the hour.

02

Find the right one

Filter by what actually matters — natural light, a cyclorama, podcast-ready acoustics — or browse a photographer's or makeup artist's portfolio, skills and hourly rate.

Explore screen: studios near you
03

Book by the hour, no back-and-forth

See the real price upfront and check availability in one tap. Some listings confirm the moment you pay; others are on request — either way it all happens in the app.

04

Running over? Extend from your phone

Request more time the moment you need it — instead of an awkward mid-shoot ask at the front desk.
