Solo landscapers lose jobs to slow replies. A customer messages, the owner's mid-mow, and by the time he replies hours later she's already booked someone else. He also double-books himself sometimes, because he's tracking everything by memory. And every so often, someone just doesn't show up, because nobody reminded them.
I built a booking system in Lovable to fix that.
The homepage shows the next open slot in real time, so a visitor sees availability before they even start the quote. A customer uploads a photo of their yard (optional) and the AI analyzes it on the spot, coverage, terrain, obstacles, condition, then gives an instant price range. They can download the quote as a PDF. If they don't book right away, they can leave their email instead, and the quote gets saved as a lead the owner can follow up on later.
To book, they pick from slots that are actually open. Already booked times don't show up, so double bookings can't happen. Once confirmed, they get a link by WhatsApp or email to manage the booking themselves, reschedule or cancel anytime, no need to message the owner.
The owner's dashboard updates in real time. New bookings appear the moment they're made. Reschedules and cancellations show up instantly with a note on what changed. A reminder goes out automatically the day before each job.
Rain gets the same treatment. If it's coming, every affected booking moves to the next open slot automatically, and the customer gets notified. The owner doesn't make a single call.
An inbound "can I book with you?" becomes a confirmed booking in under a minute. The owner does none of the admin.
Built for the #lovablechallenge.

This is a demo build for the challenge. Bookings, slot filtering, and the owner dashboard are fully functional. The photo analysis, reminders, and rain rescheduling are mocked, not production-ready so it was easy to showcase the website

Built a voice-first tour booking site for abandoned places in Bulgaria. You talk to it, it plans and books your route. Made with Lovable for the challenge.
Next up: an AI that recognizes bears (and soon other wildlife) from trail cams, plus a WebXR museum of Bulgarian traditions.
Which should I ship first? 👇
This is so cool Ilian! Voice-first booking for abandoned places in Bulgaria - such a unique niche! You talk, it plans and books - love how frictionless that is. For next, I'd vote for the bear recognition AI from trail cams - that's super unique and has real conservation value!...
Barber Management System
I built a management system for barbershops and salons that brings appointment and shop operations together in one place. It is designed to make daily tasks easier for staff while giving customers a clear, convenient service experience.
Key features
Appointment management: Customers can book and manage appointments, while staff can organize schedules and service availability to help prevent conflicts.
Customer and team records: Keep customer details and staff information organized so the shop can manage its relationships and day-to-day work more easily.
Services and branches: Manage the services offered and organize operations across shop locations.
Queue and chair coordination: Track the flow of customers waiting for service and coordinate chair availability to help staff manage busy periods.
Payments: Support payment-related steps as part of the customer’s service journey.
Dashboards and activity records: Give shop owners and staff a place to review operational information and relevant activity.
Accounts and live updates: Support controlled account access and keep relevant information up to date as activity happens.
Images and email: Support profile imagery and customer communications within common shop workflows.
My focus
Made the main tasks clear and practical for both customers and staff.
Connected booking, service, queue, and payment workflows into one overall experience.
Considered the needs of daily shop operations, including schedules, customer records, and activity tracking.
Outcome
The result is a unified system that helps a barbershop manage core operations in one place and reduces the need to coordinate routine tasks manually.
