  • Transparent pricing with a real free plan

  • Real-time queue mode for walk-ins
  • REST API with Python and Node.js SDKs
  • Italian and English built in, made in Italy

Transparent pricing, no surprises

Acuity Scheduling is a tiered subscription product where some features unlock only when you move up a plan. GrowFlow Booking starts from a real free plan with no credit card, and costs stay readable as you grow. You know upfront what you pay and what you get, without having to upgrade just to access a single feature.

Your brand, on your own domain

With GrowFlow the booking widget is white-label: you embed it on your own site, with your colors and on your own domain, so the experience stays consistent with your brand. There's no separately hosted booking page carrying a vendor's logo, your customers book where you are, not on an external platform.

Native Google Calendar sync

Two-way Google Calendar sync is built in: appointments created in GrowFlow show up on your calendar, and your availability accounts for events already there, preventing double bookings. You connect your account with OAuth and your calendar stays the single source of truth, in both directions.

Beyond appointments: queue mode

On top of scheduled appointments, GrowFlow offers a real-time queue mode designed for teams that also handle walk-ins: customers join the line, see their position update live, and you manage the flow in real time. It's a capability that goes beyond classic scheduling and covers scenarios Acuity doesn't address.

API, SDKs and a free plan to grow

GrowFlow exposes a full REST API with official Python and Node.js SDKs, so you can integrate bookings into your systems, automate workflows and build tailored experiences. The free plan with no card lets you start right away and test everything, from the widget to integrations, before deciding whether to scale.
