Hi Contra, I’m Joshua. For the #lovablechallenge, I built Tide & Tail Grooming with @Lovable.
Maya is a fictional solo dog groomer in Blackpool. When she’s busy with a dog, she can’t answer calls about appointments. I built a booking flow where customers can choose a service, see live availability, add notes about their dog, and book without waiting for a callback.
The owner view brings Maya’s diary, expected takings, and follow-up queue into one place. I also added a 15-minute clean-down buffer between dogs—a small detail that matters in a real salon.
My narrated walkthrough is attached. I’d love to hear what you think.

The salon and sample bookings are fictional. Email reminders need a provider connected before they can be sent.

I hate to say this but this project is an unforgettable experience for me.
I heard about this competition on Sep 26th from Lovable's X profile. Then I had a sip of redbull and started building this overnight.
I wasn't sure, that it would turnout great or not. But I had hope that it may turn out well.
Today after 17 days, I can proudly say that I built this project single-handedly.
If you are a client looking to build something like this, you can contact me and I will build it for you. TBH I don't care about money just the experience.
Thank you to everyone who cheered on me. 😍❤️
Business Name is Marlowe & Ash Colour Studio (Sarasota, FL)
I turned a solo colourist's DM-and-voicemail booking chaos into a self-serve flow where clients book and pay a deposit in under a minute, while automations handle reminders, rebooking nudges, and waitlist backfill so the owner spends her time on hair, not admin.
Ripple: book an Influencer the way you'd book a hotel 💧
Working with Influencer is still messy: DMs that go nowhere, rates you have to chase, contracts over email, and paying upfront with no guarantee.
Ripple puts the whole deal in one place:
• Discover Influencers matched to your Brand campaign, with real stats and a clear rate card
• Send a request and negotiate terms in chat
• Approve a proposal that both sides can see, line by line
• Sign once and it's binding for both sides
• Pay by phase, held in escrow until the work is approved
From "who should we work with?" to "booked" in minutes.

This is such a needed concept, Praveen! 👏 The influencer booking process is honestly a nightmare right now. Love how you simplified it like booking a hotel - super clear positioning. The design in the video looks clean too! 💧
I *love* the character work here! Fantastic job on this!

WHY I MADE IT -
My Fiance is a doctor now. At fifteen, she delivered newspapers around our neighborhood every single morning - cat occasionally in tow, one neighbor's dog who insisted on catching the paper mid-air. Paper Girl...
The lighting and emotional depth in this character work are incredible! Really inspiring to see such clean storytelling through visuals."
