# Scheduling that puts you in control

> Tikk gives you a booking page, calendar sync, payments and a REST API. Everything you need for clients to book you.

Tikk is a free scheduling platform. You get a booking page at `tikk.chat/username` where clients browse your services, pick a time and pay in one flow. No back and forth.

These docs cover setting up your first service, embedding the widget on your site and using the REST API.

## Who uses Tikk

Anyone who sells their time. A few examples:

**Coaches** sell discovery calls and recurring sessions, taking payment upfront.

**Consultants** run strategy sessions, retainer kick-offs and audits under one link, each with its own duration and price.

**Freelancers** share their `tikk.chat` link in proposals and email signatures so clients can book an intro call when they're ready.

**Recruiters** coordinate candidate interviews across calendars. Tikk's availability checks remove conflicts.

**Tutors** offer free trial lessons and paid packages. Students pick a service and pay at booking.

**Beauty professionals** manage cuts, treatments and consultations, with location details in place of meeting links.
