About Booko

Dynamically pricing the whole economy.

Booko helps businesses that sell bookable time slots make more money by dynamically pricing their time. Unlike physical inventory, unsold time slots disappear forever, yet most time-slot-based businesses still rely on static pricing. We integrate with existing booking systems to adjust prices and incentives based on historical utilization, availability, and demand. Early customers see ~20% revenue uplift by selling time that would have otherwise gone unsold.
