As franchise and multi-location brands pushed for greater efficiency, clearer reporting, modern guest experiences, and more automation, we focused on solving real operational challenges — not just adding features. **At the core of this year’s roadmap was one mission: streamlining operations, enhancing customer engagement, and leveraging AI-driven insights to help service-based businesses scale efficiently.** Every release this year supported that mission — and laid the groundwork for transformative improvements coming in 2026. --- # **2025 at a Glance: Improvements That Helped Merchants Operate Smarter** - Faster, more flexible scheduling for complex workflows - Stronger membership and recurring revenue tools - Clearer financial reporting and franchise-wide visibility - More automation and client engagement capabilities - Better inventory accuracy and margin controls - Enhanced enterprise security and role-based governance - A 2026 roadmap designed to modernize the entire front-of-house experience --- ## **Smarter Scheduling Built for Real Operational Complexity** Scheduling is one of the biggest sources of friction for multi-location service brands. In 2025, MyTime focused on reducing manual work and eliminating edge-case booking scenarios that slowed teams down. ### **What we improved** - Support for **multi-staff & multi-client** services - **Multi-pet & multi-family** booking online and in-app - A new **Resource View** for assigning rooms & equipment - **Calendar-view online booking** for clients - Expanded support for **multi-day appointments** ### **What these features *mean*** Scheduling now adapts to the way franchise operations actually work — not the other way around. ### **Value our merchants gained** → Fewer errors, smoother booking flows, and significantly less back-and-forth between staff and clients. --- ## **More Powerful Membership & Recurring Revenue Tools** Memberships are core to predictable revenue, but most systems make them rigid or difficult to manage at scale. ### **What we improved** - **Weekly/biweekly billing** options - **Cross-client credit sharing** where appropriate - Ability to **restrict value credits** by item or service - Hidden **“secret link” purchasing flows** ### **What these features *mean*** Operators can configure memberships to match their exact business model without losing visibility or control. ### **Value our merchants gained** → More stable recurring revenue, increased flexibility, and franchise-wide consistency in how credits and benefits are used. --- ## **Financial Reporting & Franchise Oversight That Improved Month-End** Multi-location financials are notoriously time-consuming because systems often handle transactions, royalties, and adjustments differently from store to store. ### **What we improved** - Enhanced **Time-of-Use reporting** - Additional **royalty tracking fields** - **ACH settlement** delay configuration - **POS invoicing** capabilities - More detailed **Cloud9 transaction & decline logging** ### **What these features *mean*** Franchisors and operators finally have clarity into how revenue is earned and how funds move across the business. ### **Value our merchants gained** → Faster month-end close, fewer manual adjustments, and cleaner franchise-wide financial insights. --- ## **Enhanced Messaging, Automation & Client Engagement** Client communication determines show rates, retention, and rebooking — but most systems treat messaging as an afterthought. ### **What we improved** - **Multi-step** pre- and post-appointment messaging - Integrated **NPS** surveys - Automatic **fallback delivery** (SMS → email → push) - **Dedicated SMS numbers** per location - **Text-to-refer** from the booking widget ### **What these features *mean*** Operators now have reliable, automated communication that keeps clients engaged throughout their lifecycle. ### **Value our merchants gained** → Higher show rates, stronger retention, and more referral volume without adding operational load. --- ## **Inventory Management Improvements for Faster Decision-Making** Inventory accuracy impacts margins, cash flow, and client experience — especially across large networks. ### **What we improved** - Filters by **brand, vendor, and category** - Margin & pricing edits in **vendor profiles** - **Out-of-stock** filters across all stores - **MIN/MAX** editing directly inside POs ### **What these features *mean*** Brands get clearer visibility into stock status and profitability across every location. ### **Value our merchants gained** → Less shrink, better cash management, and faster decisions on reorders and product strategy. --- ## **Enterprise Security & Access Controls for Growing Brands** As franchise networks scale, so does risk. 2025 focused on strengthening governance and reducing unauthorized changes. ### **What we improved** - **IP verification** - More granular **role-based access levels** - Expanded **audit trail** visibility ### **What these features *mean*** Strong oversight at both the franchisor and location levels. ### **Value our merchants gained** → More control, more accountability, and reduced operational risk. --- # **A Look Ahead: What’s Coming in 2026** 2026 will be the most transformative year in MyTime’s history, with advancements that modernize day-to-day operations and deepen platform intelligence. --- ## **1. Faster, Modern Scheduler and POS Interface** A complete frontend redesign that improves speed, reduces clicks, and increases ease of use. ### **Value merchants will gain** → Faster workflows, easier staff training, and smoother daily operations. --- ## **2. AI That Supports Operators Automatically** AI will expand across the platform to surface insights, automate routine tasks, and enhance guest experiences. ### **Key AI Enhancements Coming** - AI performance benchmarking - AI alerts for operational issues - AI receptionist + chatbot with API access - AI voice booking - Customer LTV tracking ### **Value merchants will gain** → Better decisions, earlier issue detection, and more bookings handled automatically. --- ## **3. Smarter Marketing & Revenue Attribution** 2026 will bring next-generation tools that show what truly drives revenue across locations. ### **What’s Coming** - Revenue-based attribution - New email template designs - AI-generated campaign copy - Demographic enrichment ### **Value merchants will gain** → Clarity on ROI and better conversion from marketing efforts. --- ## **4. Inventory Forecasting (Launching Early 2026)** Predictive forecasting that anticipates stock needs based on demand, seasonality, and location-level patterns. ### **Value merchants will gain** → Fewer stockouts, fewer overpurchases, and smarter inventory planning. --- ## **5. Operational Efficiency Upgrades for Large Brands** ### **Coming Enhancements** - ADP payroll integration - Audit trails expanded across settings + availability - Support for Ingenico AXIUM terminals ### **Value merchants will gain** → Lower admin burden and stronger enterprise-wide consistency. --- # **A Note of Thanks — and a Look Ahead** Everything we delivered in 2025 — and everything we’re building in 2026 — is shaped by real conversations with operators. The feedback and real-world experiences shared by **our merchants** continue to influence our product direction in meaningful ways, and we’re grateful for the trust they place in MyTime.
