What Is Acuity Scheduling?

Acuity Scheduling, owned by Squarespace, provides online appointment booking with customizable availability, intake forms, recurring appointments, classes, packages, subscriptions, and client self-rescheduling. Businesses can accept payments at booking, send automated email and text reminders, embed scheduling into websites, and manage appointments through mobile apps.

Best for: Service businesses, wellness providers, consultants, and instructors that need client booking plus forms, payments, and recurring appointments.

Acuity is structured around appointment-based services where a customer may need an intake form, advance payment or a recurring package. Compared with meeting-link utilities designed for sales discovery calls, it places more weight on the booking transaction and client preparation before the session.
