Client profiles, not just contacts
Every client in Calso has a full profile — session history across individual bookings, group events, and packages in one view. The client is still the centre of everything.
Practice.do shut down on November 3, 2025. Practice raised $10 million in venture capital but couldn't sustain a profitable business model. An acquisition fell through and they couldn't pivot fast enough to keep running independently.
What you picked well
What Practice.do got right
- The client record as the centre of everything — not the calendar, the client
- Packages that tracked session credits automatically as clients booked
- A workflow that felt built for coaches, not adapted from generic CRM software
- Simplicity — it didn't make you think, it just worked
What you keep
What you keep with Calso
The client view
Every client, in full context — across sessions, packages, and groups.
The mechanics you came to Practice.do for — client profiles with real history, packages that track credits as bookings happen — are first-class in Calso, not bolt-ons.
Packages that track themselves
Credits issue at checkout and deduct automatically as clients book. No spreadsheet, no manual tracking. The same core mechanic Practice built, made first-class.
Intake forms in the booking flow
Forms are part of the booking experience — not a separate step to chase down. Clients complete them before they arrive.
Group sessions alongside 1:1s
Run group programs on the same platform as your individual sessions. One booking page, one client history, one place.
What's better
Where you land further ahead
- 01
Import your client list in minutes
Export your clients from Practice as a CSV and import them directly into Calso. Clients receive an invitation to join your new account — no starting from scratch.
- 02
Payments go directly to you
Calso uses Stripe Connect — client payments land in your bank account directly. No platform intermediary holding your revenue.
- 03
Built to last
Calso is built as a sustainable independent business, not on a VC runway. No acquisition risk, no countdown clock. The funding model behind your platform matters more than you realise until it doesn't.
- 04
Digital products alongside sessions
Sell guides, recordings, and resources from the same platform as your sessions and packages. Practice didn't offer this.

Honest fit
What to know before switching
If any of these matter to your practice, factor them in. We'd rather you go in clear-eyed than be disappointed.
Multi-step workflow automation
Practice's Smart Actions let you chain triggers across the platform — send a resource after a form is completed, update a record after a session, and so on. Calso handles session reminders, confirmations, and follow-ups, but doesn't yet support multi-step custom automations. It's on the roadmap.
Practice built something coaches genuinely loved. The lesson isn't that platforms like this don't work — it's that the funding model behind yours matters. Calso is built to be here for the long run.
