Auralyst is an intelligent commerce app for beauty, style and events. Fashion stylists, hair stylists, barbers, makeup artists, photographers, videographers, content creators and venues share their work with the service and price attached, so you can book them right from their posts. Book one on its own, or everyone and the venue together in a single checkout.
Free to join and browse, with no membership or contract. Anyone can create a profile and post; you only pay when you book. Launching soon; the demo runs in your browser with sample providers and test payments.
The problem
A world of possibilities. Scattered across a dozen platforms.
Inspiration is everywhere, but turning it into reality is another story. Discovering talent, booking services, securing venues, and coordinating experiences often means navigating multiple platforms, endless messages, and disconnected transactions. Somewhere between the DMs, the booking links and the payment apps, bookings stall and never get completed, costing clients and providers time, money and opportunities.
The possibilities are endless. The process shouldn't be.
The solution
Where you find them is where you book them.
Providers post their work with the service and price attached, so you can go from their post to a booking without leaving the app. Book one thing, or everything at once: same app, same account, same checkout.
One at a time
Book a single fashion stylist, hair stylist, barber, makeup artist, photographer, videographer, content creator or venue straight from their post or profile.
Just a silk press on Friday. Just a rooftop for Saturday night.
The whole event
Add hair, makeup, styling, photo, video and the venue to one plan and pay for all of it in a single payment. Auralyst coordinates everyone's availability around the same event.
Hair, glam, a photographer and a loft for next Saturday at 8 PM.

Rooftops, lofts and ballrooms, ready to book.
Venues list packages for shoots, launches and private events at no cost to list. Clients reserve a space alongside the team who'll work in it, with no booking fee.
Why it's different
The post is the storefront.
Provider posts on Aura carry the service and price, so discovery, booking, planning, messaging and payment all happen in one app.
- Save timeOne search, one calendar and one conversation instead of repeating yourself across apps.
- Save effortNo copying dates, addresses and inspiration photos from one platform to the next.
- Know the cost up frontEvery fee is itemized before checkout, with no membership, subscription or contract.
Pricing
Free to use. Pay only when you book.
Creating a profile, posting, commenting, liking, saving, following and messaging cost nothing. A fee applies only when a service is booked or a venue is rented, and every checkout shows it before you pay.
- $0onboarding fee
- $0membership fee
- Nocontracts or commitments
When a service is booked or a venue is rented:
| Services | Venue rentals | Tips | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clients | 3%of the service price | 0%no booking fee | 0%no fee |
| Providers and venues | 3%of the service price, plus Stripe processing (2.9% + 30¢) | 8%of the booking total, plus Stripe processing (2.9% + 30¢) | 100%goes to the provider |

Stripe processing (2.9% + 30¢ per charge) is paid by the provider or venue and goes to Stripe, not Auralyst.
