Slotara — Appointment Booking & Scheduling SaaS Platform | Multi-Tenant | Laravel 12 | Filament 5

Slotara — Appointment Booking & Scheduling SaaS Platform

Slotara is a complete, self-hosted appointment booking SaaS built for developers and agencies
who want to run a booking business under their own brand. Deploy once, onboard unlimited businesses,
and let each tenant manage their own services, staff, availability, and branded booking page —
all from a polished multi-panel admin built on Laravel 12 and Filament 5.

The demo includes 8 pre-seeded businesses across different industries: Velvet Chair Studio (salon),
ClearPath Clinic (medical), Apex Advisory (consulting), IronEdge Fitness (gym),
BrightMind Tutoring (education), Pixora Creative (agency), RevUp Auto (auto shop),
and LensLife Studio (photography) — each with real providers, services, and bookings.

► How It Works

A client visits a tenant’s public booking page, picks a service, chooses a provider, selects an
available date and time slot, answers any custom questions the business has configured, and receives
an email confirmation with an iCal calendar attachment — all inside a clean, mobile-optimised
multi-step Livewire wizard. No page reloads. No friction.
