Helping studios spend less time on spreadsheets and more time teaching

StudioWhirl exists so studio owners and independent instructors can focus on their craft, not chasing payments or juggling booking spreadsheets.

Our story

StudioWhirl started when our founding team, who managed a small yoga studio in Austin, spent a weekend manually calculating instructor pay from months of attendance spreadsheets. We realized every studio we knew was solving the same problem with a patchwork of booking apps, payment links, and paper sign-in sheets, none of which talked to each other.

So we set out to build the thing studios actually needed: one platform that handles scheduling, bookings, memberships, and instructor payouts together, so the money and the calendar are never out of sync. We just opened our doors, and we're working closely with our first studios to get every detail right.

What we value

Studios first

Every feature we ship starts with a real problem a studio owner told us about.

Payouts you can trust

Money is personal. We treat payout accuracy and transparency as non-negotiable.

Simple over clever

We'd rather ship the boring, obvious feature that works than the clever one that confuses people.

Move at studio speed

Studios run on tight margins and tighter schedules, our support and shipping speed reflect that.
