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

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.
