Capabilities that neither Booqable nor Wheelbase provide.

Photo-Based Damage Inspections

Guided 8-point walk-around inspection with timestamped before/after photos, damage annotation overlay, and automatic deposit-deduction calculation. Zero paper forms.

Fuel & Mileage Tracking

Record fuel level and odometer at check-out and return. Auto-calculates refueling charges using custom per-gallon rates with distance-based overage fees.

Abandoned Cart Recovery

3-step email + SMS drip triggered when a customer abandons the booking flow. Automated 1-hour, 24-hour, and 72-hour reminders with one-click resume links.

Digital Waivers with E-Sign

Configurable liability waiver templates with electronic signature capture, minor guardian co-sign, age verification gates, and automatic PDF archival.

AI Dynamic Pricing Engine

7-factor yield management: demand forecasting, weather correlation, fleet utilization, competitor monitoring, seasonal adjustments, day-of-week patterns, and lead-time pricing.

Sub-Rental & Partner Network

Overflow bookings to partner operators when your fleet is full. Revenue-share splits, partner availability sync, and unified customer experience under your brand.

Self-Service Customer Portal

Branded portal where customers view upcoming rentals, upload documents, sign waivers pre-arrival, review past trips, earn loyalty points, and manage their profile.

Delivery & Pickup Routing

Route-optimized delivery scheduling with driver assignment, GPS tracking, time-window management, customer ETA notifications, and proof-of-delivery capture.

Maintenance Scheduling & Alerts

Mileage-triggered and calendar-based maintenance schedules per asset. Auto-blocks booking during service windows and tracks cost-per-asset lifetime maintenance.

40+ Payment Gateways

Accept deposits, security holds, and final payments through 40+ regional payment integrations including Stripe, Square, MercadoPago, and region-specific processors.

BEYOND BASIC BOOKINGS

Booking is just the beginning.

Booqable handles online reservations and basic inventory management, then stops. Calisto continues with fleet condition tracking, photo-based damage inspections, fuel and mileage reconciliation, digital waivers with e-sign, abandoned cart recovery, AI dynamic pricing, maintenance scheduling, delivery routing, and a branded customer portal. One platform from first click to final return.
