Which is right for you?
Choose BookIt
Choose BookIt if your customers prefer to text rather than fill out a booking form. BookIt's AI handles the conversation naturally over SMS — no booking page, no intake forms, no app. Also choose BookIt if you have multiple chairs/rooms/staff that need parallel scheduling, or if you want automated rebook nudges to bring past customers back.
Choose Acuity Scheduling
Choose Acuity if you want extensive customization of intake forms, run group classes, or already use Squarespace for your website (the integration is tight). Acuity's web-form UX is also better-suited for higher-ticket services where customers expect a detailed form.
