Who this is for: studio operators (admin panel) · Product: Podyx V2
Rooms are your physical spaces. Setups are the versions of that space clients actually see and book. Think of a setup as a scene inside a room: same four walls, different look, different kit, different price. One room can hold several setups, which is how you sell the same square meters three different ways.

🔧 Where to find it
Admin Panel → Setups
🎬 Several setups, one room
Give each configuration its own name and identity. A single studio might offer a warm two-chair interview scene, a stripped-back solo desk, and a wide multi-cam stage. To a client these are three different products. To you they are one room you already pay rent on.
🛠 What you configure on a setup
Name and description. This is customer-facing, unlike the room name.
Room assignment. Which physical space it belongs to.
Number of seats. How many people the scene holds.
Images. The single biggest driver of whether someone books.
Active or inactive.

📸 Photo order matters more than you think
Clients are trying to picture their session before they pay for it, so help them:
First image: a wide shot of the full set, so they get the vibe of the space.
Second image: the camera's point of view, so they can imagine their finished video.
💡 That second shot does most of the selling. It answers the real question, which is "what will my content look like."
🔒 Remember the room rule
If any setup in a room is booked for a time slot, the other setups in that room close for that slot. The room is one shared inventory pool. This is what lets you list several setups without ever selling the same space twice.
🎯 Tie services and add-ons to the setup
Base services and additional services will not appear in the booking flow unless they are tied to that setup. The setup decides what a client sees. This is deliberate and useful: an LED screen add-on can be offered on the setup that actually has an LED screen, and hidden everywhere else, so nobody buys something you cannot deliver in that scene.
⚠️ If a service is missing from the booking flow, an unlinked setup is almost always why.
🧠 Why setups matter
More products from the same space, with no extra rent.
Each scene sells itself with its own photos, description and price.
The right extras in the right place, because add-ons follow the setup.
No double-booking, because the room still governs availability.
✅ Summary
Create a setup for every distinct way you can arrange a room. Give each one a strong name, a wide shot, a camera-POV shot, and the services and add-ons that genuinely work in that scene. The room quietly protects your availability while the setups do the selling.
