When we launched Bookee, we made a fundamental choice that set us apart: your studio's revenue would be our North Star. While others in the industry were content with providing scheduling and billing tools, we asked a deeper question: "What truly drives a studio's success?"

That question has led us on an incredible journey of innovation, partnership, and growth. 

Today, we're excited to announce the next evolution of that journey: Bookee is becoming Kenko.

The power behind the name: why Kenko?

It embodies a state of complete well-being - a harmonious balance of physical health, mental clarity, and business prosperity. This perfectly captures our vision for the wellness industry.

Just as the concept of Kenko represents holistic wellness, our platform delivers holistic business growth. We're not just helping you manage appointments; we're nurturing the complete health of your studio business plus OPS.

The evolution of our visual identity

Our transition from Bookee to Kenko is reflected in our new visual identity. The Bookee logo, with its friendly and approachable design, served us well in establishing our presence in the wellness industry. Our new Kenko logo builds on this foundation while embracing a more sophisticated and forward-looking aesthetic. 

The logo combines clean, modern lines with a subtle nod to our AI-powered future, featuring a distinctive "K" that symbolizes the bridge between traditional wellness practices and cutting-edge technology. The design maintains a sense of warmth and accessibility while conveying the power and intelligence of our platform.

Our brand philosophy and architecture

The Kenko brand is built on three core pillars: Innovation, Partnership, and Growth. Our visual and verbal identity reflects this through:

  • Innovation: Bold, clean design elements that showcase our technology leadership
  • Partnership: Warm, accessible color palette and typography that convey trust and support
  • Growth: Dynamic visual elements that represent progress and success

Our brand architecture is thoughtfully structured to support both our current offerings and future innovations. While Kenko serves as our master brand, it houses a growing ecosystem of products and services, each designed to enhance different aspects of wellness business management. 

This flexible architecture allows us to introduce new features and products seamlessly while maintaining a cohesive brand experience.

Our journey: from booking platform to business growth partner

When we started, we saw an industry filled with fragmented solutions - separate tools for scheduling, marketing, client management, and business growth. But we envisioned something more powerful: a unified system where every feature, every innovation, and every interaction drives toward one goal - your studio's success.

This vision led us to pioneer solutions that transcend traditional studio management:

The Kenko difference: why we stand apart

Complete setup & integration

  • Full system configuration

🎯 XFrame

We made client interaction seamless and enjoyable with our website widgets powered by magic-links. Now it’s time to raise the bar once again. Kenko’s Xframe will take your website experience from great to greatest. We cannot wait to launch this one.

🤝 AI sales partner

Imagine having a tireless, non-pushy, and intelligent sales person working for your studio 24/7 to make your goals a reality. It can call, text, email — all by itself. It will be a revolution.

We are going beyond software. Yes; that’s right

Today, with rising competition and changing markets, its not enough to just “run” the business. Every business owner needs to get all four pillars of the business right — marketing, client experience, operation, and team.

This is a really tough challenge. Big brands are investing in highly-paid consultants and service to make overcome it. Leaving smaller brands at a disadvantage. This did not sit well with us.

  • Strategy
  • Playbook
  • Coaching
  • DFY Software implementation
  • Weekly 1:1 with coach
