## October 2025 Update: Multi-User Accounts & Role-Based Permissions
Your team just leveled up. Oskar now supports **dedicated staff accounts** with tailored permissions — so you can invite colleagues, instructors, or assistants into your workspace without sharing logins or crossing wires. Everyone gets their own seat, their own access, and their own responsibilities.
### What’s New
* **New “Staff” Section:** Manage internal users under **Left Menu → MANAGE → Staff**.
* **Invite Flow:** Use **Invite Staff Member** (top right) to send secure invitations via email.
* **Role-Based Access:** Choose between
* **Owner** — full access, including billing and workspace deletion
* **Manager** — broad management rights without deletion powers
* **Staff** — access limited to assigned resources, events, or colleagues
* **Granular Permissions:** Fine-tune what each staff member can see and manage.
* **Email-Based Onboarding:** Invitees get a secure link to create their password and join your workspace.
* **Instant Access Control:** Resend invitations, remove users, or revoke access at any time.
* **Resource → Account Migration:** Convert resource profiles into full user accounts with one click.
### Why It Matters
Teams run better when everyone has the right access — and only the right access.\
This update gives studios, clinics, agencies, retreats, and classrooms a secure and clean way to collaborate without stepping on each other's toes.
Need to let someone go? Remove access with one click — their data stays exactly where it belongs.

## September 2025 Update: 🚀 Waitlists + QR-Code-Check-Ins + Pending Orders
This release brings new ways to keep your bookings fair, your events full, and your check-ins seamless. From waitlists to QR scans, Oskar continues to make running your business smoother.
### Waitlists for Events & Courses
Never turn clients away again. When an event is full, they can join a waitlist instead.
* Set a waitlist capacity (or leave it unlimited).
* Enable auto-offers to email the next client in line with a 12-hour claim link.
* Manage the queue directly from any event or occurrence.
* Issue, resend, or expire offers manually whenever needed.
[Read more here](/documentation/setup-and-configuration/events-and-courses)
### QR Code Check-Ins (and Check-Outs)
Professional, touch-free entry for events, courses, and services.
* Enable in **Payment & Checkout** settings.
* Clients receive a unique QR code in confirmation emails.
* Staff can scan from **Quick Actions → Scan QR Code** or attendee lists.
* Works on any camera-enabled device.
* Manual fallback included.
* Track **Check In** and **Check Out** live.
[Read more here](/documentation/bookings-and-scheduling/qr-code-check-in)
### Pending Orders
Transparency for every booking in progress.
* Slots are held for 15 minutes during checkout.
* Admin-created bookings also create a temporary hold.
* Pending orders can be reopened, edited, and completed before expiry.
Prevents accidental double bookings and gives you visibility of everything happening behind the scenes.

## August 2025: 🚀 Oskar 1.0 + New Website
**Run your business on autopilot with Oskar 1.0 — the world’s first AI Business System built for service providers.**
We’ve also relaunched with a new name and a new look:
* **OskarOS → Oskar.** Shorter, sharper, more focused — just like the product.
* **A fresh website** at oskaros.com that reflects our mission: building software that bends around you, not the other way around.
When we started Oskar, we asked a simple question:\
**👉 Why does running a service business still feel harder than it should?**
Most software forces you to adapt to it. **Oskar flips the model:** one chat prompt sets up your entire booking system.
**✨ What’s New in Oskar 1.0**
Oskar has grown from a booking MVP into a full operating system. Highlights:
* **Smarter Booking Logic** — Service-first, resource-first, event-first flows; tracked units; multi-booking carts.
* **Events & Courses Revamped** — Tiered pricing, recurring events, organizers, automatic blocking.
* **Two-Way Google Calendar Sync** — Keep your real-life availability fully aligned.
* **Integrated Payments** — Stripe, refunds, offline payments, payment links.
* **Custom Booking Page Design** — Drag-and-drop layouts, embed options, QR codes.
* **Multi-Language Support** — English, German, Spanish, French.
* **AI Roadmap** — Upcoming: Oskar Agents, invisible AI coworkers handling admin and scheduling.
One prompt, and you're in business. Oskar runs the rest.
**🙌 Thank You**
To our early community: you shaped Oskar 1.0. As a launch bonus:\
Use **HUNTER1** for 30% off monthly and annual plans — valid until December 2025.

## June 2025: Our New Documentation Is Live!
***Our new OskarOS documentation is finally live — faster, more comprehensive, and (hopefully) way more helpful.*** Keeping up with a fast-moving product isn’t easy.

*Missing something?* Just shout [here](https://www.oskaros.com/contact)— we’ve got you.
