Resource booking

Stop double-booking the room, the backdrop, and the camera.

Karavex tracks rooms, studios, equipment, and other resources with their own schedules, capacity, buffers, and pricing, and checks them before a booking is confirmed.

People are not the only thing that can be double-booked.

Two sessions can have two photographers and still need the same cyclorama or lighting kit. When resources live in a spreadsheet, the clash is discovered on the day.

01

Shared gear is tracked from memory.

Rooms and equipment are reserved in chats and spreadsheets that the booking page never reads.

02

Karavex makes resources schedulable.

Each resource has its own schedule, capacity, and conflict rule, and services say which resources they need.

03

Conflicts are stopped before confirmation.

A booking that needs a resource already committed at that time cannot be reserved, instead of being discovered later.

What changes

Every booking claims what it needs.

01

Rooms, studios, equipment, vehicles, desks, and your own resource types

02

Capacity, buffers, notice periods, and booking windows for each resource

03

Resource checks when a booking is reserved and when it is rescheduled

What you can manage

Rules for the things your work depends on.

Resources carry the constraints a service needs, so an available person is not mistaken for a bookable session.

Many resource types

Model rooms, studios, equipment, vehicles, desks, booths, courts, virtual rooms, or a custom type, each at a location.

Capacity and conflict rules

Allow one booking at a time, a set capacity, or unlimited use, and choose how strictly overlaps are enforced.

Its own schedule

Give a resource weekly hours, a minimum notice period, and a maximum advance booking window.

Buffers and durations

Add setup and cleanup buffers, and set fixed or flexible durations with a minimum, maximum, and step.

Pricing settings

Record whether a resource is free or priced as a fixed amount, per hour, per day, or per slot.

Linked to services

Assign resources to the services that need them, and duplicate a resource to set up similar ones quickly.

How it works

From inventory to safe availability.

Resources are checked alongside staff and locations, so a time that needs a committed resource cannot be booked.

01

Add your resources

Create each room or piece of equipment at its location, with its type, capacity, and schedule.

02

Attach them to services

Assign the resources each service needs from the service settings.

03

Clients book

When a booking is reserved, Karavex confirms every required resource is available for that time.

04

Reschedule safely

Rescheduling suggestions keep the same duration and respect current resource commitments.

Questions

Resource booking details.

What happens if a resource is already booked?

The booking cannot be reserved for that time. Resource availability is checked when a booking is created and again when it is rescheduled.

Can several bookings share one resource?

Yes, if you allow it. Set the resource to multiple or unlimited capacity and choose its conflict rule, and overlapping bookings are allowed up to that limit.

Do resources belong to a location?

Yes. Every resource is created at a location, so rooms and equipment are only offered where they physically are.
