Know what each service actually costs you to deliver.

What does a gel manicure really cost once you count the chair, the backbar, the tech's time, and the empty slots in between? KlevaCore answers that question — per service, per tech, every week.

Control, understand, optimize

Three steps, in the order owners need them: get the money straight, see what each service costs, then decide what to change.

Control

Budgeting & cash flow

"Where is my money going?"

Budgets, bank feeds and automatic sorting keep the salon's money straight.

  • Zero-based budgeting with sinking funds
  • AI transaction categorization
  • Automated bank connections
  • Duplicate detection & reconciliation
Understand

What each service really costs

"What does it truly cost to deliver my value?"

Labor, backbar and overhead per service, plus what empty chair time costs you.

  • Rent and overhead shared fairly across services
  • Minutes per service, priced at your real cost per minute
  • Empty chair time, in dollars
  • A flow chart of where every dollar goes
Optimize

What to change next

"How can I improve profitability and plan for the future?"

Scenario planning, cash-flow projections and AI suggestions turn the numbers into next steps.

  • A setup check on every dashboard that says what's missing
  • Customizable dashboard widgets
  • Settings that fit the cost math to your salon
  • Match each tech's pay grade to the right services

Setup health on every dashboard load

A live status strip across the top of your dashboard points at exactly what's blocking accurate profitability.

Most accounting tools assume you'll figure it out. KlevaCore runs continuous setup checks against the costing engine and surfaces the specific inputs that are missing — Facility, Resources, Station Types, Services, Employees, Bookings, Profitability nodes. Click an amber or red node and you're on the page that fixes it.

Once the strip is green, your Profitability dashboard flips from estimated to live — real per-service margins from real bookings.

Bookings missing

Profitability is using target booking rates instead of measured numbers. Import your Vagaro Transaction List to flip to live.

Four ways salons answer this question. Only one scales.

Most owners we talk to are doing one of these. KlevaCore is the software that does the coach's job — without the monthly retainer.

Vagaro / Square reports

You see revenue. Not cost.

  • Bookings and gross sales by tech
  • No labor, backbar, or overhead per service
  • No idle-capacity dollars

Bookkeeper or QuickBooks

Books are clean. Services aren't priced.

  • Clean ledger and tax-ready P&L
  • Not service-aware — no per-service margin
  • Tells you the past; doesn't help you price the next service

Coach or fractional CFO

Right answer. Wrong price tag.

  • Real cost analysis and pricing guidance
  • $1,500+/month, ongoing
  • You wait for a meeting; the answer doesn't live in your dashboard

Spreadsheets

As long as you have time on Sunday.

  • Free and infinitely flexible
  • Has to be rebuilt every time something changes
  • Doesn't pull from your bank or POS

Built next to a real salon — not in a SaaS office.

KlevaCore is built by a software founder whose wife owns and runs a premium nail salon. Every feature was pressure-tested against a real chair, a real schedule, and a real payroll — before it shipped. When something on the page sounds like it understands your week, that's why.

A husband-and-wife product. The salon owner is the literal first user.
