🚀  WELCOME TO THE NEW ERA OF GYM AUTOMATION (MAJOR RELEASE VERSION 3.0)

This update marks the biggest leap forward in the platform’s history - transforming it from a gym management tool into a fully automated operations infrastructure.

Every layer of the system has been re-engineered: from biometric access control (who now thinks for itself), to next-level subscription automation, to enterprise-grade infrastructure scaling. Security is now military-level, performance is lightning-fast, and day-to-day administration is reduced to oversight rather than labor.

Whether you're running a single studio or a multi-location fitness chain, this upgrade gives you total operational visibility, seamless access control, and autonomous revenue workflows - all in real time.

🔐 BIOMETRIC ACCESS CONTROL (GATECLOUD INTEGRATION)
