The Online Booking Tool

Are you in need of an efficient booking solution?

banto is an online tool that helps you organize professional research for you, so that you can do what you enjoy most: the actual research.

Free for our academical partners!

Organize participants and resources

banto recruits participants for you. It works like an online blackboard. Simply publish a posting to banto and participants can start signing up for it. Two different filters help you getting the participants you need without compromising data security. Internal and external access to your studies is possible: You choose your users.

Need special equipment like VR glasses? Eyetrackers? Or simply a room all to yourself? Just tell banto and it will automatically book it for you. You don't need to conduct a study to book equipment, but we do suggest trying it out in the context of conducting one. It helps you to use your research to its highest capacity.

Data Security

Keeping your data safe is our priority. Therefor we've paid special attention to keep your data secure ever since we've started to develop the software - Security by Design.

You can:

• Host banto on your own server or in as a cloud service on a server here in Germany
• Use bantos Rights And Permissions system to make sure each and every user gets an access tailored to their needs

Your Users can:

• Access their data at any time and delete it if they want to
• Choose to use filter functions that don't save personal data, while still ensuring they fulfill the requirements
• Using the classic user property filter, where the data is actually saved, but still remaining in control by being able to delete all data at any time


• We do not use cookies for marketing or ads, but only to know who logged into banto
• No data will be shared with third parties

Sharing and Students

Research is Teamwork. Many people often work on the same research projects. It's important to keep them all up to date. You're able to share your postings with anyone you would like to.

Use banto for your students. Universities often require students to collect hours as a proband. banto has a system that keeps track of the aquired credits.

Quality Assurance

Ensure quality through evaluation. Participants can evaluate studies, experimenters can evaluate participants. The evaluation is confidental.

Notification- and Remindermails ensure that your participants are always up to date about new studies and don't forget any of their appointments.

Incorporate banto easily in your IT structure. banto works with LDAP and OD which centralizes your user organization. If employees leave or you hire new ones, permissions can easily be adjusted.Do you need to link surveys? No problem. banto allows you to leave a link in your study. You can also integrate appointments from banto into your calendar, because banto appointments come with an importable ICS file.

Our Vision

We would like to make academic research financially more independent. For this reason, we provide this software to our academic partners for free.

With banto we would like to create a global participant network that can be used by academic as well as industry partners. Access for the latter partners would be for a fee. The revenues are meant to further finance the project as well as return it to academics partners in various forms, e.g. grants or development of new research tools.
