Texas massage shops
Somavue is launching first with Texas massage and bodywork shops. Take online deposits, run check-in, notify providers, and collect payment without adding another monthly software bill for v1.
A small Texas shop should understand the product in one pass: clients can book, arrive prepared, get routed to the right provider, and pay cleanly.
Online booking can collect no deposit, 50% deposit, or full payment based on shop policy.
Arrival, intake, guardian confirmation, and payment state are visible before provider pickup.
Providers see the next clean handoff instead of chasing front-desk notes or paper intake.
Deposits and in-person card payments attach to the appointment and invoice.
Somavue is not trying to be a marketplace, a generic POS, or a giant salon suite on day one. The launch product is narrower on purpose.
Track arrival, intake completion, consent state, and payment readiness from the same operational surface.
Massage appointments are constrained by people, time, rooms, and equipment. The calendar has to show that clearly.
Public booking should help clients book the shop they chose, not redirect attention into a competing marketplace.
Somavue earns a small platform fee when customers pay through Somavue. That makes the pilot easy to explain and ties revenue to actual processed payments.

Bring booking, check-in, and payments live first. Expand the operating system after the daily flow is trusted.
