Today we’re opening the doors of Smart Widget Platform. It turns the website you already have into a front desk that never closes: visitors see what the job will cost, pick a time that is genuinely free, and book it — while you’re on a job, asleep, or finally taking a weekend off.
We built it because we kept seeing the same thing: excellent service businesses losing customers not to competitors, but to friction. Here is that friction — and what we did about every piece of it.
Five problems every service business knows
- “How much will it cost?” — the question that starts every enquiry, and the one most websites can’t answer. Your widget prices the job on the spot from your own rules: services, sizes, extras, quantities, urgency.
- Phone tag and email ping-pong just to find a time. Visitors see your real availability — working hours, breaks between jobs, days off — calculated in your time zone, not theirs.
- Double bookings. A slot is checked and claimed on the server the moment it’s booked. Two people clicking the same time in the same second? One gets it; the other is asked to pick again.
- No-shows. Every booking gets an instant confirmation with a calendar invite, and a reminder before the appointment — for your customer and for you.
- Changes that eat your day. Customers cancel or move their own booking from the link in their email, within the cut-off you set — and you’re told when they do.
Your website shouldn’t just describe your business. It should run the front desk.
One snippet, built for many kinds of business
The same widget adapts to the way you actually sell your time. Start from a ready-made template, then change anything:
- Cleaning services — priced per room, with deep-clean extras and arrival windows.
- Barbers, stylists and beauty studios — a service menu with paid add-ons and back-to-back appointments.
- Trades and handymen — a call-out fee, the type of job, an urgency surcharge and a description of the work, before you ever pick up the phone.
- Mobile car valets and detailers — prices that scale with the size of the vehicle, plus the address and registration you need.
- Tours, tastings and experiences — per-person pricing with group limits and fixed departure times.
- Cabins, holiday homes and rentals — booked by the night, with check-in and check-out times and minimum stays.
- Consultants, coaches and clinics — free or paid sessions, with the intake questions you ask anyway.

Live in an afternoon
- Build your widget in the dashboard — services, prices, opening hours and the questions you need answered. No code.
- Paste one snippet into your site. It works anywhere you can add HTML: WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow or a hand-written page.
- Take bookings. Every booking, customer and price lands in one dashboard, with analytics that show where visitors drop off.
It wears your brand, not ours: your colours, your fonts, your wording — in English, Hungarian or Serbian. It loads fast, works on any phone, never clashes with your site’s design, and sets no tracking cookies on your visitors’ browsers.
Payments: in person today, online next
Until then, every pay-in-person booking is confirmed instantly, and you mark it paid once the job is done — so your dashboard always shows what’s been collected and what’s still owed.
