Your whole studio, finally in tune
Sonely is the flexible system that brings lessons, families and payments together. Made for music teachers and schools of every size.
All your teaching, one software system
Schedule weekly lessons, group classes and recitals, catch clashes before they happen and give every teacher a calendar of their own.
Take attendance in a tap. Ten statuses decide what is billed, what is credited and what becomes a make-up lesson the family can book.
Invoices go out on their own by lesson, package or month. Families pay online by card or bank, and auto-pay and late fees run themselves if you want them.
Families book and cancel within your rules, pay invoices, read lesson notes and log practice in a portal that carries your studio’s name.
Assign pieces, follow each student's progress and see the practice they log at home, with the recordings they upload.
Build a studio website on your own domain, with sign-up forms and online booking that fill open slots in your calendar.
We built Sonely for teachers who would rather be teaching. Every lesson, invoice and family message lives in one place, so the admin fits between lessons instead of after them.
Why we built it
Family portal & website
The portal made for your families
Families see their schedule, pay invoices and log practice from any phone, and it all stays in sync with your studio.
Book and cancel lessons within your rules, use make-up credits, pay invoices, read lesson notes and log practice with recordings.
The portal carries your studio’s name and brand color. Choose the page families land on, what each family can see and do, and give your studio a website at its own address.

No matter how families find you, you can follow up
When someone fills in a sign-up form or books a trial lesson on your studio site, Sonely adds them as a lead or a student for you automatically.
