Track every rental from booking to return
Manage bookings, track rental periods, collect deposits, handle returns, and monitor revenue — all in one place. Built for equipment rental, event supplies, and any rental-based business.
Lost rentals and missed returns cost you money
Most rental businesses track bookings in spreadsheets or on paper. Items go out without proper records, return dates are forgotten, deposits aren't tracked, and overdue rentals slip through the cracks. Argo Books gives you a complete rental management system — every booking, every item, every customer, every date — so nothing gets missed.
- Full rental lifecycle — Active, Overdue, and Returned status tracking
- Deposit tracking with paid/unpaid status per rental
- Automatic overdue detection when return dates pass
- Revenue tracking with total earned across all rentals

Manage your rental catalog with availability tracking
The rental items page shows every item in your rental catalog with total units, how many are currently available, how many are rented out, and pricing for daily and weekly rates. Each item has a status — Available or All Rented — so you can see at a glance what's ready to go out.
Set deposit amounts per item, track availability across your entire fleet, and see summary cards showing total items, available units, rented-out counts, and items in maintenance. When a rental is created, available counts update automatically.
- Available vs. rented counts update in real time
- Daily and weekly pricing per item
- Configurable deposit amounts for each rental item
- Status badges — Available, All Rented, In Maintenance
