Everything a dock office needs. Nothing it doesn't.

Built with a real operator, for real operations — the daily grind of departures, manifests, walk-ups, weather calls, and payouts.

🔒

An engine that can't oversell

Every reservation runs through a row-locked, atomic transaction in Postgres. We fire 100 simultaneous bookings at a 49-seat departure in our test suite — exactly 49 succeed, every time. Two families will never buy the same seat.

💳

One-screen checkout & deposits

Pick a departure, add guests, pay — done. Stripe-powered cards, full payment or a 50% deposit with the balance at the dock. Card details go straight to Stripe and never touch our servers.

Jelly, your AI concierge

"Best cruise for young kids this weekend?" Jelly answers with live availability, quotes the exact total, and completes the booking — payment and all — right in the chat. It never invents a price and never books without a yes.

🧭

A command deck, not a control panel

Month, week, and day calendars that read like your whiteboard. Printable manifests with one-tap check-in. Phone and walk-up bookings, refunds, capacity, crew, and weather notes — all two clicks deep, never ten.

An ops copilot that does the busywork

"Close the 11:30 and move everyone to the 2:30." The copilot reads your calendar, moves the bookings capacity-safely, and drafts the guest email — then asks you to confirm before anything guest-visible happens.

📈

Reports, reminders & rain checks

Revenue and headcount by day, item, or date range with CSV export. Warm, on-brand confirmation, reminder, and weather-delay emails go out automatically — written like a human, sent like clockwork.

Meet Jelly. Your best salesperson works the night shift.

Most bookings are lost between "hmm, which tour?" and a five-page form. Jelly collapses that whole journey into one friendly conversation — on your site, 24 hours a day, with live seat counts and real payments.

Your website. Our engine.
