Customization

Is your studio unique? Your software should be too.

Every studio platform is a set of assumptions somebody else made. We know, because we went looking for one and ended up building Ida instead.

“We have had such a positive experience with IDA OS. From the beginning, their team has taken the time to truly understand how our studio operates and what we need from our software. They have gone above and beyond to customize the system to fit the specific way our studio is structured, rather than expecting us to change our processes to fit the software. What has impressed us most is how responsive and willing their team has been to listen, make adjustments, and find solutions that work for us. It really feels like we have a team behind the software that is invested in helping our studio succeed. IDA OS has already made managing our studio easier, more organized, and more streamlined.”

We lived this

We were the studio shopping for software.

Gott-Hughton is a championship Irish dance studio in Calgary: multiple levels, competitions, rentals, privates. Before Ida we did what every independent does: cheques and e-transfers, a calendar in Canva, and a long look at every platform anyone recommended.

Each one got maybe eighty percent of the way. Then the last twenty percent, how we actually charge and how our week actually moves, simply wasn’t in there, and nobody was going to add it.

So we stopped shopping and built the thing we needed. Ida ran our studio before it ran anyone else’s.

Why customization is the product

No software fits every studio.

That’s the honest thing nobody in this market says. Independent studios aren’t variations on a template. The levels, the rates, the season, the household rules: the differences are the business.

And the gap is expensive. It’s the discount you apply by hand, the fee you stopped charging because there was no box for it, the spreadsheet open beside the dashboard. It never shows up as a line item. It just takes your evenings.

So we don’t treat it as an edge case or a paid services engagement. When Ida doesn’t match your studio, we change Ida, not your prices, not your week.

“We already charge 25% off the cheaper student. Can you add that?”

11 weeks later: “Thanks! We’ve added it to our roadmap.”

At Ida, that ask is the product. We change Ida, not your prices.

Customization examples

Things we’ve built for real studios.

A sibling discount that didn’t have a box. A month that had to close on a different day. A fee billed to a whole class. Built, not on a roadmap.

The amounts and dates here are examples. Yours will be different. That’s the point.

Studios running on Ida

  • Strike A Pose
  • Live Dance Create
  • Ticalie Academy
  • Gott-Hughton
  • 20% off the cheaper sibling

    Two dancers, one household: the discount lands on the lower tuition.

  • Bill on the 22nd for next month

    A card that retries next month still pays the month it was billed for.

  • Pick your dates on a 4-class pass

    Families choose their four classes when they book.

  • Your own domain

    portal.yourstudio.com. Families never see an Ida address.

  • A $12 late fee at 3 days, then $20 at 10

    Counted from the due date, not a calendar date.

  • Drop cutoff on the 18th

    Your month closes when you say, not on a default.

  • Workshops as real billing

    Off the spreadsheet and into bookings and dancer registrations.

  • A $320 family class cap

    A family in five classes hits the cap and pays the cap.

  • Register before you join a class

    Waivers and registration first. Then the week opens.
