How you can run it

One platform, four ways to operate.

Service storefront

List services with pricing, availability, and photos. Customers browse, book, and pay in one flow.

Team mode

Route work to staff, assign jobs, and keep calendars aligned. Employees get their own workboard.

Subscriptions

Weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly recurring services. Predictable revenue, automatic billing.

Quick jobs

Small fixed-price jobs with fast turnaround β€” perfect for handyman work and one-off requests.

Complete Merchant Commerce Suite

Built for how real South African businesses operate.

From your custom digital storefront to item-level service diagnostics and high-margin bundles, Bouul gives you enterprise commerce superpowers.

Storefront & Brand Identity

Store Detail: Your High-Converting Digital Storefront

Your Store Detail page is your digital flagship. It showcases your staff, verified reviews, custom handle, and dynamic service menu to convert profile visitors into paying customers.

Custom Merchant Handles (`$handle`)

Claim your unique handle (e.g. @sipho_plumbing) featured on search cards, QR code shares, and social feeds.

Team & Employee Roster Sheet

Clients tap your team pill to view staff licenses, PIRB/Wireman wire certifications, and photo badges, building instant client trust.

Dynamic Menu Sections & Inventory Sync

Organize services into custom sections (e.g. *Emergency*, *Maintenance*, *Packages*). Items auto-hide when inventory depletes.

Verified Rating & Review Audit

Displays verified customer ratings, star breakdowns, and response metrics. Zero fake reviews allowed.

Policy & Escrow Disclosures

Clear cancellation policy terms, emergency call-out tariffs, and 100% Escrow Guarantee badging shown up front.

1-Tap Direct Message & Instant Booking

Clients can launch a chat with Zola AI or request instant booking directly from your storefront header.

Autonomous Business Monitoring

No other platform watches your business like this.

Legacy sites sit back and collect fees. Bouul continuously monitors 27+ operational signals across 5 domains β€” auto-detecting gaps and generating 1-tap fix tasks on your Ops Board.

Storefront Health

Most pros don't know their storefront is incomplete until a customer bounces. Bouul scores every page out of 10 and tells you exactly what's missing.

Auto-Synced to Ops Board
Signal #1HIGH URGENCY

Completeness Gaps

What Bouul Watches

Missing logo, cover image, description, phone number, or search keywords on your storefront.

Why It Matters

A storefront without branding converts at a fraction of a complete one β€” clients decide in seconds.

Automated Fix Action

Auto-creates a 1-tap fix task on your Ops Board. Your health score improves the moment fields are saved.

Signal #2MEDIUM URGENCY

Service Listing Gaps

What Bouul Watches

Services live without gallery images or search keywords β€” stuck at 5/10 health score.

Why It Matters

Listings without media pass database queries but fail customer search queries.

Automated Fix Action

A completeness task is assigned. One photo upload turns an invisible listing into a bookable asset.

Signal #3MEDIUM URGENCY

Missing Post Media

What Bouul Watches

A text post published with zero attached images or videos.

Why It Matters

Text-only posts get negligible feed engagement compared to visual Glimpsesβ„’.

Automated Fix Action

An editorial task prompts you to attach a photo to boost feed distribution.

27+ Operational Detection Signals Active

Every signal creates an actionable 1-tap task on your Ops Board. Your team sees what needs fixing before a customer ever notices.

Honest comparison

What your industry is actually paying for.

Most SA pros run on a patchwork of expensive, outdated tools. Pick your industry and see exactly what changes.

Your online presence
What you have now

A Facebook page and a number in a neighbourhood WhatsApp group. Marketplace platforms take 20% of your quoted labour. Search-engine pay-per-lead ads cost R150–R350 per qualified call.

With Bouul

A storefront with your full service menu, licence badges, emergency flag, and coverage area β€” shown in both text and voice search results.

Booking & scheduling
What you have now

Customers call while you're on a ladder. You miss half the calls and lose the job. Scheduling software breaks when load shedding kills the internet sync β€” double-bookings are common.

With Bouul

Clients see real-time availability, book with a deposit, and send photo diagnostics before you arrive. You arrive with the right parts, every time.

Fees & hidden costs
What you have now

Marketplace commission at 20% + search-engine lead ads at R150–R350/lead + card machine fees at nearly 3% + fuel to quote jobs that never materialise + reputation site fees. For a pro doing 15 jobs a month, that's thousands in platform taxes alone.

With Bouul

Flat monthly fee. No per-lead markup. No marketplace commission. Deposit in escrow before you dispatch a van. Reviews live on your storefront β€” no monthly ransom.

Features you get, not add-ons
Licence & insurance verification badges
Photo diagnostics before arrival
Emergency service flag + surge pricing
Recurring maintenance contracts
Inventory auto-deduction on completion
Job history per address & customer

Flat monthly fee. Zero commission per booking. That's the whole pricing story β€” no fine print, no β€œper lead” markup, no hidden monthly fees.

Your money

You set the price. You keep the margin.

Base rates, surge pricing for peak times, off-peak discounts, travel fees β€” all yours to control from the dashboard. Payments are held in escrow and released straight to you.

  • Surge pricing that respects consumer-protection rules
  • Off-peak incentives that fill slow days without killing margin
  • Escrow protection on every single booking
