Bike rental
Ask a bike rental operator what breaks and the answer is never the booking form. The constraint here is turnaround between a return and the next booking.

A bike fleet is the hardest kind of rental inventory to track because it moves in both directions all day. Fifty units go out on Saturday and forty-two come back Saturday afternoon, some to a different location than they left from. Seasonal pricing changes weekly through the summer, and a fleet sitting idle at one location while another turns customers away is the single largest source of lost revenue.
What the platform does here is narrow and specific. One live view of every unit across every location, with transfers recorded so stock idle at one site can fill demand at another.
The problem it removes: turning away a booking at one location while identical units stand unused at the next. The number to watch is utilisation per location, and the count of refusals made against available stock elsewhere.
Availability sits against individual units, each with its own location, condition and service history, rather than as a count per site. A booking commits a specific unit, which is what keeps the view correct when the same unit gets promised twice in two places.
Eight bikes, two locations, one in the workshop. Book against each model and see which one can tell you which bike the customer is getting.
Bodhisys charges no monthly fee. The platform takes 4.5%, added to each reservation and paid by your customer rather than by you.
Bodhisys is rental operations software for companies that rent things, vehicles and experiences. It was built for rental inventory rather than adapted from a ticketing system, and it has been in market since 2023.
For bike rental companies, one live view of every unit across every location, with transfers recorded so stock idle at one site can fill demand at another.
There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.
Bodhisys is younger than FareHarbor and Peek Pro and has a smaller install base. An operator whose revenue is mostly timed tours, or who needs a long list of third-party integrations today, is better served by an incumbent.
A tour flow sells a seat at a time. A rental flow has to capture what leaves, where it goes, when it comes back and who is responsible for it in between.
There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.
Yes. Customers, future reservations and booking history migrate from FareHarbor, Peek Pro and Bike Rental Manager.
