SK Salon vs Fresha.

Fresha is a free-to-list global marketplace and booking platform, monetising through payments and marketing add-ons rather than a subscription. This page will compare against their published model once sourced.

Where we open

The differentiator, not the checklist.

Autonomous outbound rebooking when a stylist is out, and franchise royalty settlement from actual billed revenue — the two places no vendor on this shortlist has an answer today. That's a claim we can stand behind; it's in our own feature register, not sourced from Fresha.

This page is a structural placeholder, not a published comparison. Per SKSALON-WEB-001 §11.2, every competitor claim must carry a source link and a retrieval date, and if Fresha doesn't publish a figure the honest answer is "they don't publish" — never an estimate. I don't have current, sourced Fresha pricing/feature data to cite, so the right-hand column stays unfilled rather than guessed at. Before this page goes live: pull Fresha's current published pricing and feature pages, cite each row with a link and date, and — per the spec's own instruction — concede accurately wherever Fresha is genuinely stronger (their spec calls out staff-economics depth and reporting breadth as one such area for at least one competitor). A comparison that concedes nothing reads as marketing and gets discarded.
