🧭 Overview

We're excited to announce that Rentals is now live for everyone! 🎉

Rentals is a powerful new addition to our scheduling suite, purpose-built for businesses that manage bookable inventory like equipment, vehicles, spaces, vacation properties, event setups, and more.

Unlike traditional appointment scheduling, Rentals is designed for duration-based, inventory-driven bookings — giving you full control over availability, pricing logic, booking types, and multi-item checkouts.

Whether you rent by the hour, day, week, or month, Rentals gives you the flexibility to model your real-world business accurately.

🚀 What’s New?

• Create listings for each rental offering and configure:
• Pricing per hour/day/week/month
• Quantity tracking
• Variants (e.g., size, type, configuration)
• Lead time, buffer time, booking window rules

✅ Inventory Tracking & Availability Control

• Control how many units of each listing are available at any given time.
• The system automatically:

Each listing can define its own booking behavior.
