Classta: an AI course booking tool for independent lecturers

Classta is an online course booking management platform designed for independent instructors and small studios. Its core feature is the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline the course creation and management process. Users only need to describe basic information such as course content, time and price in simple language, and the system can automatically generate an exclusive booking page with online payment, automatic reminders and QR code check-in function in minutes. The platform integrates features such as customer management, membership subscriptions, multiple online payment channels (such as Stripe and PayPal) and Zoom integration, and is designed to free teachers from tedious administrative tasks so they can focus more on teaching itself. Classta is available for yoga, pilates, fitness, cooking, art, language learning, and many other types of classes.

3. Complete Registration: If you use a mailbox, you need to set a password containing at least 6 characters (letters and numbers are required).

Step 2: Create your first course using AI

This is Classta's most unique feature. Traditionally, you would have to manually fill out multiple forms to set up a course, but Classta greatly simplifies this process with AI.

1. Find the AI creation portal: After logging in, find the "Create Class with AI" button in the admin panel.
2. Describe your program: In a simple text box, describe your course in one sentence. The description needs to contain key information, for example:
   • Course NameFor example, "Vinyasa Flow Yoga".
   • timingFor example, "Tuesdays 6pm".
   • Course Prices: e.g. "£8.50" (£8.50).
   • Course Duration: e.g. "60 mins".

This page is already pre-configured with all the necessary elements such as the course schedule, prices, payment links, an automatic reminder email template and a student registration form.

Step 3: Configuration and Personalization

The AI does most of the groundwork for you, but you can still personalize it in detail.

1. Customized Branding: In the settings, you can upload your own brand logo and choose a color theme that matches your brand image to make the appointment page look more professional.
2. Setting up payment methods: Go to Payment Settings and connect your Stripe or PayPal account. Once connected, course fees paid by students will go directly to your account.Classta supports multi-currency, making it easy for you to receive payments from students all over the world.
3. Create a Membership or Package: If you want to offer a subscription service, you can set it up by going to the "Memberships" section. You can create different levels of membership and offer them exclusive discounts or content.
4. Configuration of the trainee registration form: If your class requires the collection of specific information from participants (e.g., a health survey before a fitness class), you can customize the auto-enrollment form to automatically collect this information when a participant makes an appointment.

Step 4: Share and start taking reservations

After completing all the settings, your course is now officially live.

1. Get the share link: The system generates a unique URL for your appointment page.
2. Promote your course: You can share this link on your social media (which can be promoted with the aid of the AI Social Media Posts feature), email it to your existing learners, or embed it in your personal website.
3. Manage Appointments: Once the participant enters the page through the link, he/she can choose the time, complete the booking and make the payment by himself/herself. You will see all the booking information in real time in the management background. The system will automatically handle the follow-up matters, such as sending confirmation emails and reminder emails/SMS before the class.

Step 5: Pre- and post-course management

1. Participants signing in: A QR code will be included in the reservation confirmation email that students receive. When you attend class, you can simply scan that QR code with your cell phone to quickly complete your check-in without having to manually check the list.
