Clippers Base

Run the show.

What Clippers Base does across a working day, from the first coffee to knock-off.

Your day, read for you before you leave.

The Today screen reads every booking and each client’s history, then tells you what matters. Six things it does at a glance:

  1. 1

    Who’s first, and the weather

    Your day’s count and the forecast where you’re working.

  2. 2

    A brief written for you

    It reads each client’s recent visits, notes and voice notes, and pulls out the facts worth knowing.

  3. 3

    Worth a look

    Who hasn’t confirmed, the tightest drive, and who’s here today but still owes you.

  1. 4

    Up next, and when to leave

    The drive from your last stop sets a leave-by time.

  2. 5

    The one note before you knock

    Each dog’s key note shows on the booking.

  3. 6

    Takings and money owed

    What came in today and what’s still out. Owners only.

Handled from the driveway.

Lots of small jobs happen between dogs. Each one gets a tile.

Texts from your own number.

One booking, the texts around it. Most go out on their own at the right moment, from your mobile, and clients reply to you like normal.

Running late? One tap.

The app sees you’re behind and offers the text.

From inside her van, the groomer waits in her lane behind a queue of cars at a red light, hands on the wheel, glancing at her phone in its dashboard cradle

Works with no signal

Move bookings, add clients and record notes. It syncs when you’re back in range.

Say it. Get a note and a to-do.

It’s transcribed, saved on the dog, and any follow-up shows on the next booking.

Start, finish, see the day move

Tap Start at the trailer and Finish when the dog’s done. A heads-up shows before each booking.

An empty slot doesn’t stay empty.

Two ways a gap gets filled, minute by minute.

Thursday, 2pm comes free

A regular cancels in the morning. By morning tea, someone else has the spot.

  1. Noah cancels Winston’s 2pm.
  2. The waitlist shows who wants that time.
  3. One tap offers it to Kate by text.
  4. Kate says yes. Luna’s booked, and your day is full again.

Regulars drifting away

See who has gone longer than usual between grooms, before they’re gone.

A new client asks

They fill in your intake form, and you have everything you need to book them in.

  1. Add them as a new lead, and the app texts them your intake form.
  2. They add the address and the dog’s size, coat, matting and vaccinations.
  3. The app suggests the service and the times near where you’ll already be.

And everything else in the box.
