Your Atelier Deserves
Better Than a DM Thread.

The Problem

You're Running a Fashion House on WhatsApp Voice Notes.

Your work is luxury. Your process shouldn't be chaos.


Every new client means a thread of DMs to agree on a date, a bank transfer you manually confirm, and a fitting schedule tracked in your head.


When a client ghosts after agreeing to a consultation, you lose that slot with nothing to show for it. When a high-end client asks about your process and you reply with "DM me your availability", you've already lost the room.

"How many no-shows have cost you a full consultation fee this year?
"How many DM conversations ended without a booking?
"How many times have you chased a bank transfer before starting work?
"How many high-end clients judged you by your process before seeing your work?
How Atelo Works

One Link. Paid Booking. Done.

01

Set up your services

Add consultations, fittings, and their prices. Set your availability once. Atelo handles timezone detection for diaspora and international clients automatically.

02

Share a single link

One link goes in your Instagram bio, WhatsApp status, or email. Clients see your real availability, pick a slot, and pay upfront. No back-and-forth.

03

Receive confirmed bookings

A WhatsApp notification the moment a booking is confirmed. Client name, service booked, payment received. Nothing to chase.

04

Manage everything in one place

Schedule fittings, track client measurements, manage your full roster, all from your dashboard. And when you're ready for a website, embed Atelo directly with one line of code.

Everything in One Place

Built Around How Ateliers Actually Work.

Not a generic booking tool retrofitted for fashion. Every feature is designed for the specific demands of bespoke designers and couture houses.

Real-time availability, zero double-bookings

Set your weekly schedule once. Clients only see slots you're actually free. Timezone detection handles diaspora and international clients without confusion.

Get paid before you lift a needle

Every consultation is paid at booking via Paystack. No more 'I'll pay when I come.' No more chasing transfers. No more no-shows.

Your business runs on WhatsApp. So does Atelo.

Get notified the moment a booking is confirmed, rescheduled, or cancelled, directly on WhatsApp. No app to check. No dashboard to monitor.

Every fitting, tracked and connected

Schedule initial fittings, adjustments, and final deliveries, all linked to the original booking. Calendar and list views. Conflict detection built in.

Your client book, digitised

Store measurements, fabric preferences, booking history, and notes per client. The record-keeping that turns one-time customers into lifelong ones.

Atelier Tier

Your brand. Not ours.

Remove Atelo branding entirely on the Atelier tier. Your clients see your house name, your aesthetic, your professionalism, and nothing else.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions Worth Answering Honestly.

No. Atelo gives you a standalone booking page with your own link (e.g., getatelo.com/yourbrand). Share it from Instagram, WhatsApp, or anywhere. No website, no developer required.

No. Atelo is built for Nigerian fashion designers with a diaspora and international client base. Timezone detection handles booking across time zones automatically. USD and international card payments are on the roadmap for post-launch.

Not currently, and that is deliberate. A paid commitment filters for fashion houses that are serious about their bookings. In this market, free tiers tend to create permanent free users rather than paying businesses, so Atelo keeps the entry price low: Emerging is ₦10,000/month. Instead, walk through the entire booking experience in our live demo before paying anything. And if you choose an annual plan, it is fully refundable within 7 days.

No. 0% commission on every plan. You keep 100% of every payment, and it goes straight to your own account. Atelo only charges a flat monthly or annual subscription.

You reschedule from your dashboard. The client receives a WhatsApp notification with updated details, and your calendar adjusts automatically.

Yes. Embed your Atelo booking page into WordPress, Squarespace, or any website with a single line of code. Your embed snippet is in your dashboard under Share. Your subscription, settings, and client history carry over.

On the Atelier tier, your booking page shows only your brand name and logo. No 'Powered by Atelo' badge. For established houses where brand presentation is everything, this matters.

Atelo is booking software for fashion designers, but it works more like a deposit app with a client manager attached. Your booking page takes upfront payment the moment a client books, sends WhatsApp confirmations to you and the client, schedules fittings, and syncs your calendar so slots never clash. Scheduling is the start, not the whole job.

You set the amount, and Atelo charges it in full at booking. Most designers set their consultation fee. Some set a deposit toward the full commission and collect the balance directly at fitting. Either way, your client has paid before you commit a single hour.
