Built for how studios actually run.
Every feature started as "can you please just…" from a real owner, not a product manager who took one intro class and called it research.
Twelve modules. One login.
Every tier includes the full studio dashboard. Start with the app, the website, or both. Belt paths, badges, reports, and imports are built in, not a paid add-on.
White-label mobile apps
Your logo, your colors, your listing. Belt paths and achievement badges give students a reason to open it beyond checking class times.
Studio websites
Mobile-first sites with sections built for dojos, not generic "business solutions" with a hero stock photo.
Student & family management
Profiles, guardians, waivers, emergency contacts. Built how studios actually run, not how a SaaS PM imagined a dojo once.
Classes & attendance
Weekly grid scheduling, instructors, rooms, gear requirements, and kiosk check-in with attendance heatmaps. Proof they showed up, not vibes.
Memberships & billing
Stripe Connect on your account, recurring plans with trial days, family billing, retries, and customer portal. Your money, fewer awkward front-desk conversations.
Belt & rank tracking
Multiple rank ladders per studio (TKD + BJJ, etc.), promotion history, testing requirements by belt, and a visual learning path in the member app.
Achievement badges
Custom badges for promotions, form goals, attendance streaks, and studio milestones. Students earn them in the app; parents see progress without cornering you at the front desk.
Curriculum video library
YouTube + rank gates, belt-by-belt testing charts (forms, kicks, hand techniques), and instructor practice reviews before promotions.
Lead CRM
Trial signups, pipeline stages, and follow-ups, without a spreadsheet called "HOT LEADS 2026 (FINAL v3 REAL)."
Studio shop + POS
Products, collections, discount codes, front-desk POS, and online checkout on your site. Stop tracking gi sales in a notebook.
Events & newsletter
Belt tests, seminars, and announcements to app + site. Newsletter signups stored in Gibon with optional Mailchimp sync.
Reports & retention
Revenue, membership mix, attendance cohorts, and students at risk. Export CSV when the board wants numbers, not anecdotes.
Roster, families, and the front desk
Student profiles, guardians, and attendance in one place. Built for how martial arts schools actually run day to day, not how a flowchart in a pitch deck thinks they run.
Student profiles with attendance, rank, waivers, and notes
Family and guardian linking with shared billing
Recurring schedules with instructors and rooms
Kiosk check-in, heatmaps, and retention reports

Studio operations

Curriculum
Rank-gated video and a path students follow
Keep curriculum organized by belt. Students see a visual learning path for forms and techniques, rank-gated videos for what they're ready for, and achievement badges when they hit milestones.
Visual belt progression path in the member app
Testing requirements chart per belt rank
YouTube channel and playlist integration
Practice reviews before promotions land
Belt path and badges students check between classes
Generic member apps die in the second week because they're just a schedule. Gibon gives students and parents a reason to open yours: see what's next on the belt journey, earn badges, and track progress without asking the front desk.
Step-by-step learning path per belt rank
Custom achievement badges by category
Promotions, form goals, and attendance milestones
Earned, in-progress, and upcoming badges in app + web portal

Student engagement

Billing
Memberships that run in the background
Stripe-powered recurring billing with retries and a customer portal. Fewer awkward money conversations at the desk and fewer "I thought autopay was on" surprises.
Recurring memberships and family plans
Stripe Connect on your studio account
Failed payment handling with auto-retries
Stripe Customer Portal for self-serve
Leads, site, and your branded app
Trial signups land in your pipeline. Your website, shop, and app share the same data as the front desk, so nobody re-types the Johnson family's info for the third time.
Inquiry forms and trial signup capture
Pipeline: New → Contacted → Trial → Converted
Drag-and-drop studio website (20 section types)
Shop section + white-label iOS and Android apps
