🤕 We know your pain:

We know the pains of operating a tattoo business, and use computers to alleviate friction, facilitate best in class communication with clients & your team, and ultimately help expand & fufill your potential.

🚶‍➡️Never lose another walk-in or phone inquiry

We're not just selling software we're making sure that you are able to accept every walk-in phone inquiry DM or nearly other major platform save carrier pigeon.

🧍‍♂️ Professional Isolation

Build a thriving tattoo community through integrated social features that connect artists and clients beyond the chair. Share portfolio updates, behind-the-scenes content, and healing progress photos in a dedicated space that fosters ongoing relationships. This creates a sense of belonging that transforms one-time clients into lifelong advocates for your studio.

📲 Social Marketing Anxiety

Automated social media posting and content scheduling takes the pressure off constant online presence while maintaining engagement. Pre-built templates designed specifically for tattoo studios help showcase your work professionally without the stress of creating content from scratch. Analytics dashboards show what resonates with your audience, making future marketing decisions data-driven rather than guesswork.

📅 Scheduling Confusion

Intelligent calendar management prevents double-bookings while optimizing your schedule for maximum efficiency and artist well-being. Time-blocking features account for different service durations, setup time, and necessary breaks between intensive sessions. Clients see real-time availability and can book instantly, while you maintain complete control over your schedule and availability preferences.

Ask how we can take your last years IG posts, and schedule them for this years Google Business Listings!
