Ask about thisFor grooming, boarding, daycare, and retail. The Hub does everything Gingr does (booking, pet profiles, POS, commission) and the things it doesn't: Deco 1.0 writing the caption on a pet photo report card, assessing the groom by breed, quoting over text, and reminding you to rebook on each breed's cadence.
Situations nearly every pet business lives. If more than two of these ring a bell, the Hub fixes them.
The phone rings all day. The desk spends hours booking baths and grooms. The owner gives up if nobody answers. The schedule ends up with holes.
Bia has a notebook, Carlos has texts, Daniel writes it on the PC. The day one is out, nobody can find the client. The pet shows up and the time is wrong.
Without a systematic reminder, the owner forgets. When they show up it's to complain the dog smells. A recurring client becomes an occasional one, revenue drops.
Bia says she did 80 baths, the spreadsheet says 72. The owner feels overpaid, the groomer feels underpaid. The month ends in an argument.
Food near its date gets forgotten at the back of the shelf. It expires, becomes trash, the vendor won't take it back. A 5-10% inventory loss every quarter.
The nightly rate looks good. But kennel cost + overnight staff + house food + cleaning... real cost per night? A separate spreadsheet, always out of date.
Same shop, same groomers, same pets. Just a different tool.
No U.S. pet-business platform ships all of these today. Each one solves a real day-to-day problem.
Staff snaps a photo of the pet during the groom. Deco writes a warm personalized caption (breed, expression) and texts it to the owner automatically. Owner reshares it on Instagram. Free organic marketing.
Owner texts a photo. Deco identifies breed with 95% confidence, size, coat type, condition (matted, normal, dirty). Suggests groom style + time + price. Shows expertise before they book.
Owner texts a photo + weight + breed. Deco computes the price against the shop's menu. Replies in seconds with price, time, and open slots. Booked in 2 minutes, no phone tag.
Deco knows the ideal cadence: Poodle 3wk in summer, Husky 5wk, Shih Tzu 3wk. Adjusts for summer automatically. Texts at the right moment. A forgotten client turns recurring.
Deco reads the profile (breed, age, weight, allergies, behavior) and suggests the right food + a complementary add-on (brush, cologne, toy). Counter up-sell without pushing.
Deco classifies the owner's text in seconds: grooming, boarding, retail, vet routine, vet emergency. Vet emergency routes to a partner clinic. The shop keeps the client.
Owner reserves on the site, sees real occupancy. Staff takes 2 photos a day, Deco writes the caption. Owner is confident (sees a happy pet). Card / tap-to-pay at check-out with nights + extras.
Owner requests transport with the appointment. Deco builds the optimized route (own van or partner). Owner gets a 'Van arriving in 5 min' text. Convenience becomes a competitive edge.
A % rule per groomer (senior 40%, mid 35%, junior 30%) + a repeat-client bonus. Auto-calculated net of hours. ACH on the 5th, PDF pay stub. No arguments.
Rabies, bordetella, and DHPP logged with expiry dates. The Hub reminds the owner 30 days out and auto-blocks boarding/daycare check-in when a required shot is expired. Compliance without chasing paperwork.
The Hub watches inventory. 30/15/7 days before expiration it fires a text promo to owners of the matching pet. Food sells through as revenue, not a write-off.
Before the bath/groom/boarding, the owner e-signs an agreement (allergy, medication, behavior, emergency authorization, add-ons). Full audit trail. Ends 'I never authorized that'.

Deco 1.0 is our proprietary AI. It lives inside the Hub and handles the busy work: the caption on a pet photo report card, the groom assessment by breed, the text pre-quote, food + accessory suggestions, rebooking reminders by breed/climate, and message triage.
No prompt, no ChatGPT tab, no extra subscription. Built into every plan.
Gingr is booking and kennel ops, priced per service module ($100-209/location), with payments, two-way text, employee scheduling, and messaging billed as paid add-ons on top. The Hub is one flat price that already bundles grooming, boarding, and daycare booking, retail POS, two-way text, and staff scheduling, plus the marketing, CRM, website, and AI Gingrdoesn't do at all.
Size only picks the plan. Every plan ships the same all-in-one system. There are no per-module fees and no paid add-ons to stack.
The 10 without a badge are in every plan, starting with Solo ($97). The ones tagged PRO or ELITE require those tiers.
Most features are identical across the four plans. The plan you pick is mostly about the size of the operation (groomers, active pets, integrations). Pro and Elite also get 2 marketing extras on top.
No marketing extras. For SEO + Deco-powered ads, move up to Pro.
