Upkilo, the SaaS platform we built and run
Upkilo is an AI-powered business management platform for appointment-based service businesses, combining booking, CRM, payments, marketing automation and analytics in one system. It is Kornspire's own SaaS product — designed, built, operated and licensed in-house.
Free trial, no card required. Pricing is published on Upkilo’s own pricing page — we do not repeat the figures here, so they cannot fall out of step.
What it does
Six modules that replace four tools and a spreadsheet
Appointment businesses rarely fail for lack of software. They fail because the diary, the client record, the till and the marketing list are four systems that never agree with each other.
Smart Booking
Scheduling that adapts to business rules, staff availability and client preferences, and works to fill the gaps in a day rather than simply recording appointments.
CRM & Client Hub
Client history, preferences, notes, loyalty points and purchases held in one record, so the person behind the counter knows the client before they arrive.
Marketing Automation
Drip campaigns, SMS sequences and email workflows that run on their own — re-engaging lapsed clients and filling empty slots without someone remembering to send them.
Payments & Billing
Cards, UPI, subscriptions, packages and gift cards, plus invoices, deposits and revenue tracking that reconciles against what was actually taken.
AI Chatbot
A booking assistant that handles enquiries, rescheduling and common questions around the clock, escalating to staff only when it genuinely needs to.
Analytics & Insights
Revenue funnels, staff performance, campaign return and retention in one dashboard — the numbers an owner uses to make a decision, not a wall of charts.
Who it is for
Businesses that run on appointments and repeat clients
- Med spas
- Aesthetic & beauty clinics
- Dental practices
- Hair salons
- Spas
- Massage businesses
- Physiotherapy clinics
- Chiropractic clinics
- Auto detailing
Multiple staff and multiple locations are supported, so a single salon and a small chain are both served by the same product rather than by different editions of it.

What building it required
The decisions behind the product are the ones we sell
Each of these had to be got right on our own product, with our own money and our own support load behind it. Each links to the service where we do the same work for someone else.
Multi-tenant SaaS architecture
Tenant isolation, per-tenant configuration and multi-location support, with the isolation model enforced in the data layer rather than by convention.
SaaS & PaaSPayments and subscription billing
Multiple payment providers and methods, subscriptions, packages and gift cards, with idempotent handling and revenue that reconciles.
SaaS & PaaSAI features in production
A booking assistant and scheduling intelligence running against real customer traffic — with the guardrails, cost profile and escalation path that a demo never needs.
AI & Machine LearningMessaging and automation at scale
SMS and email sequences through third-party providers, with delivery handling, scheduling and consent respected per channel.
AutomationSecurity and data-protection engineering
Encryption in transit and at rest, and built-in data export and erasure tooling — the engineering side of data-protection obligations, built in rather than retrofitted.
CybersecurityAnalytics on operational data
Revenue, retention, staff performance and campaign return modelled from the transactional system without degrading it.
Data & AnalyticsIntegrations
It has to fit the tools already in use
- Stripe
- Razorpay
- Google Calendar
- Twilio
- Mailgun
- Zoom
- QuickBooks
Payments through Stripe and Razorpay, messaging through Twilio and Mailgun, plus calendar, video and accounting connections — because a booking system that ignores the rest of the stack just creates a new island.
Data handling
What is implemented, stated plainly
- Encrypted in transit and at restTLS for data in transit, AES-256 for data at rest.
- Data export and erasureBuilt-in tooling for handling data-access and deletion requests.
- Secure hosting with tested backupsCloud hosting with automated, encrypted backups.
These are implemented controls, not a certification claim. Kornspire holds no security certification for Upkilo, and would say so if asked in a procurement review.
Answers
Upkilo: common questions
Including the one this page exists to answer — what the relationship between Kornspire and Upkilo actually is.
What is Upkilo?
Upkilo is an AI-powered business management platform for appointment-based service businesses — salons, spas, clinics, physiotherapy and similar. It combines booking, a client CRM, payments, marketing automation, an AI booking assistant and analytics in one system, so an owner is not stitching together four tools and a spreadsheet.
What is the relationship between Kornspire and Upkilo?
Upkilo is Kornspire's own SaaS product. It is not client work and it is not a partnership: we designed it, built it, and we operate and license it. That is what makes it useful evidence on this site — the architecture, the release process, the security posture and the support load are all decisions we made and live with.
Who is Upkilo for?
Businesses that run on appointments and repeat clients: med spas, aesthetic and beauty clinics, dental practices, hair salons, spas, massage businesses, physiotherapy and chiropractic clinics, and auto detailing. It supports multiple staff and multiple locations, so it suits a single salon and a small chain equally.
What does Upkilo cost?
Upkilo publishes its current tiers on its own pricing page, and there is a free trial that does not ask for a card. We deliberately do not repeat the numbers here: prices maintained in two places eventually disagree, and the figure on Upkilo's own site is the one that will be right.
How does Upkilo handle customer data?
Data is encrypted in transit with TLS and at rest with AES-256, hosting is on secure cloud infrastructure with automated encrypted backups, and there is built-in tooling for data export and erasure requests. Specific regulatory questions for your own business should go to Upkilo directly, since the answer depends on where you operate and what you record.
Can Kornspire build something like Upkilo for us?
Yes — that is what our SaaS and PaaS product engineering service is. The useful part is that the decisions are not theoretical for us: tenancy model, metering and billing, onboarding, release safety and support cost are things we have already had to get right and live with on our own product.
Built and operated by Kornspire Private Limited.
Want a platform of your own?
The tenancy model, the billing pipeline, the onboarding flow and the release process are the parts that decide whether a SaaS product is still economic in year three. We have had to answer all of them on our own product.
