The day on the water
The dashboard and the logbook open on the day itself: every boat on a 06:00–21:00 line, with a seat that fills for each diver logged. Morning, afternoon and night dives are told apart at a glance.

Manifest is dive-centre software by Meta Mind Lab. Log each dive once, and the bookings, payments, PADI courses, gear and the day’s profit follow, at the desk and on the boat.


Most dive centres run the day from a whiteboard on the dock and a spreadsheet in the office. Manifest puts the boats, the divers and the money in one place, so each dive is entered once and counted everywhere.
The booking becomes the logbook entry, the logbook becomes the day’s finance and the invoice, and the reports add themselves up.
A month calendar runs from pending to confirmed to completed. Walk-ins can be booked before a client record exists.
Each dive goes into the daily logbook once: site, times, instructor, skipper and every diver with their activity.
Every boat sits on the day’s timeline, with a seat that fills for each diver logged.
The same day, seen by the office: revenue, levies, commissions, expenses and profit, live.
One click turns the day into income records. Invoices come out as PDFs, per client or as a daily batch.
The monthly P&L, diver statistics and balances are calculated from the same entries, never retyped.
The daily logbook is the source. Income, invoices, balances, diver statistics and the monthly P&L are calculated from it.
Levies per diver, commissions per instructor, kit by size, courses by module and VAT on some activities but not others.

From Discover Scuba to Divemaster, with payments, PADI fees and certification dates on each course.
Wetsuits, BCDs, regulators and tanks counted by size and condition. Services due within 30 days are flagged, and boats, compressors and vehicles have their own records.
A levy charged per diver, instructor commissions set per activity, and VAT switched on per activity with inclusive or exclusive pricing.
Income split by activity and payment method, with paid, partial and due states, and money owed to suppliers tracked too.
The monthly P&L, diver statistics, annual expenses by category and month, and balances, always calculated.
Each role sees only what it needs, and security policies in the database enforce it, not just the interface.

Instructors check the day and log divers from a phone, reception books and invoices from the desk, and the manager sees the day add up from either.
Manifest is set up around your centre: your sites, prices and kit loaded before day one, your identity on every screen.



Grouped the way the day runs: operations, finance, equipment, reports and admin, with a ⌘K menu to jump anywhere.
Plan the day’s boats, log every diver once and keep bookings and courses in step.

Staff, Settings, VATSomething else on your mind? We are happy to walk you through it.
Yes. Your logo leads every screen and the sign-in page, in colour and as white artwork for dark mode and photos. Manifest signs quietly in a corner.
Yes. Manifest can be self-hosted on a server you own, with your own domain and HTTPS. When you move, we bring your data and staff accounts across, so nobody has to reset a password.
A levy can be charged per diver and shown on its own line, instructor commissions are set per activity, and VAT is switched on per activity with a rate and inclusive or exclusive pricing.
Every screen works at phone width in the browser, so instructors can check the day and log divers from the dock. There is nothing to install.
That is where we start. We map your workbook, its columns, formulas and tabs, to Manifest, and load your dive sites, prices, commission rates and gear before your first login.
Three roles, manager, reception and instructor, are enforced by security policies in the database itself, not just hidden in the interface.
