| Billing | It supports recurring tuition and dues, card and ACH payments, decline retries, late fees, family invoices and receipts. | Features include recurring credit card and ACH payments, tuition calculations, prorating, discounts, invoices, and statements. |
| Integrations | Listed integrations include Stripe, Bird SMS, Bird Voice, OpenAI, Mapbox, Short.io, Meta social services, Apple App Store and Google Play. | The vendor lists Mobile Inventor for branded studio apps and Google integration for online registration and trial or drop-in bookings from Google Search. |
| Security | Card data is collected through Stripe Elements, so the platform says it does not store raw card numbers or CVVs. | The security page says login and account information is encrypted and that card and bank numbers are stored by PCI-compliant payment gateway partners rather than by the vendor. |
| Trial | New accounts receive a 30-day trial with full platform access and no credit card required to begin; a payment method is required before the trial ends to continue service. | The FAQ offers a free 30-day trial with a business-specific environment and says trial data is purged 30 days after trial expiration if the customer does not purchase. |

The Studio Director
The Studio Director manages the day-to-day operations of businesses that schedule and charge for classes, including dance, gymnastics, martial arts, and fitness studios. Students can register through its portal, check schedules, request trial or makeup classes, and pay. For billing, it supports recurring card and ACH payments, tuition calculations, prorating, discounts, invoices, and statements. Operators can manage recurring classes, attendance, waitlists, room schedules, and instructors, as well as send targeted or automated email, distribute documents, and run promotions. Event timelines can arrange performances to avoid conflicts; costume tools cover assignments, sizing, orders, and charges. The product runs on Android, iOS, and the web, with integrations listed for Mobile Inventor branded apps and Google registration and bookings. A free 30-day trial is available. Monthly prices vary by student count and payment-processing option: Software + Payments for 0–100 students is $39 a month, while Software Only for that range is $65 a month. Trial data is purged 30 days after expiration if the customer does not purchase.
