Colavo Ground is a Seoul-founded software company behind ColavoSalon, a free mobile-first CRM and booking platform for independent beauty professionals and salons. It bundles online booking, an appointment calendar, automated multi-channel reminders, loyalty and package tools, staff commissions and sales analytics into one app, aiming to cut no-shows and improve client retention. Colavo says it is used by well over 100,000 beauty pros across dozens of countries, and has raised roughly $3.77M, with a Series A round in 2021.
