Which to pick
EquipDash suits rental shops that like its plans and are fine with 1–2% per booking, and it has an official MCP server too. daybag suits operators who want the API and MCP on every plan, Free included, with no per-booking fee.
daybag is deliberately small: classes, appointments and rentals, a booking page and widget, card payments through Stripe on Pro, and the API and MCP server. If you need more than that, compare feature lists before you switch.
