Active Manager is designed for guiding companies and activity operators: departures with capacity, a qualified guide on every trip, equipment, pick-ups and waivers in one plan, and every hour guided turned into pay.

Every departure, with the places it has left
Each departure has its capacity, and online, desk and partner bookings all draw on the same places. If there’s space, the booking is confirmed and paid on the spot; if not, it comes to your team to approve.
A qualified guide on every trip
Every guide’s qualifications are on their profile, beside their availability and days off. For each departure, see who’s free and qualified, and every trip still without a guide, from today to six months out.
Sizes in with the booking
Equipment sizes are collected when guests book, with each guest’s age, ability, medical and dietary notes and an emergency contact. The equipment can be ready before the group arrives, and the guide can see who is renting what.
The pick-up on the booking, not on a separate list
Transport goes on the same booking as the trip, so the pick-up sits beside the trip and the equipment. Your team sees the meeting points, equipment and pick-ups for every group, and when the weather changes the plan, you message every affected guest in one go.
Signed before the group arrives
Guests sign the waiver on their own phone before the day, and a parent or guardian signs for anyone under 18. Your team, and each guide on their phone, can see who has signed.
Sell through hotels, lodges and agents
Each hotel, lodge or agent books through its own link and sees its own bookings, against the same places as your own. Commission or invoices are worked out for every partner booking.
The whole day, on the guide’s own phone
Guides sign in on their own phone with a one-time code, with nothing to install. They see their trips and shifts with the times, the group, the location and waiver status, plus each guest’s contact details, their rentals and the booking itself.
