Built for the creative economy
Recording suites, photo studios, woodshops, fabrication labs - manage your spaces, your equipment, and the people who hire them from one connected platform.
Creative spaces are operationally unique - equipment is as valuable as the room itself, sessions have tight turnovers, and members range from day-pass visitors to resident artists. Axiom models all of it in one place.
Precision scheduling for high-turnover creative sessions
Studio hours, workshop bays and darkroom time all need tight management. Axiom gives you the tools to schedule, buffer and track every session without gaps or overlaps.
Set the Hours Each Space Is Open
Draw the availability for each room and nothing can be booked outside it. A booking can run half an hour or all day, as long as it sits inside the window you opened.
Buffer & Reset Times
Set automatic buffer periods between bookings for room resets, equipment checks and cleaning. Your team has the time they need without anyone managing the calendar by hand.
Tutors and Technicians as Providers
A class, a lesson or an induction is not just a room. Whoever runs it is held as a session provider with their own hourly rate and their own availability, with the people attending on a list against it.
Your gear is just as bookable as your rooms
Microphones, lighting rigs, lathes, laser cutters - specialist equipment is a core part of what creative spaces offer. Axiom handles it two ways, depending on whether the thing needs charging for or needs protecting from being promised twice.
Kit That Can Only Be in One Place
A laser cutter or an edit suite can be set up as bookable in its own right, with its own hourly rate and its own opening hours. Two people can never be given it at once.
Kit You Just Need to Charge For
Backline, lighting, materials and consumables go on as add-ons at the point of booking. Each carries its own price and tax treatment and lands on the invoice without separate paperwork.
Deposits & Asset Protection
Configure security deposits or pay-on-arrival workflows for high-value equipment loans. Protect your assets without adding friction to the booking process.
Run your space as a community with the records of a business
Resident artists, occasional hirers and one-off visitors all end up owing you something. Axiom holds each of them as an account and gives them a portal to book for themselves.
- 1
They Book Themselves In
Your own branded portal shows live availability and takes bookings at any hour. Card payment can be taken at the point of booking, or the request can wait for you to approve it.
- 2
An Account Each
Every artist and hirer has their own record holding contact details, their whole booking history, every invoice raised and the balance they still owe.
- 3
Drafted, Then You Send
The invoice arrives drafted off the booking with the hire, the extras and the tax already on it. You check it and send it, so nothing goes out unread.
Generic booking tools miss half the picture.
Creative spaces need equipment, not just rooms.
Most platforms treat everything as a room. Axiom understands that a studio is worthless without its gear, a makerspace is defined by its machines and a community space runs on relationships rather than reservations.
Equipment is a first-class citizen
Gear lives in the same system as rooms: bookable in its own right where it needs to be, billable where it doesn't, and protected with a deposit. No bolt-ons, no spreadsheets.
A band is one client, not five
Clients can be linked to each other, so a band, a collective or a company is one account with one invoice and a shared history, rather than five people you have to reconcile.
Bookings & billing stay in sync
When a session changes, the invoice updates. Credit notes, additions and adjustments are handled every time, without manual reconciliation.
