Say goodbye to shop chaos and hello to the only all-in-one management app built just for tattoo studios, no salons, no gyms, just your world. Tattoo Studio Pro streamlines your workflow, cuts no-shows, and helps you grow, so you can focus on your art. Ready to level up? Everything you need to transform your business: - Log every ink and needle (NEW!): Set up the inks and needles you use, then tick them off on each client's form. Lot numbers fill in automatically and land on the signed consent PDF, ready for your health inspector. - Be up and running in minutes: Signing up asks for your studio name and a PIN, not ten fields. A setup checklist walks you through the rest. - Get answers without leaving the app: Tap Ask Dot on any screen, or reach a human by email or a booked call. - Run your day from the Calendar: Day, week, month, and list views, staff color-coding, and view settings that stick between sessions. - Track every appointment's status: Mark appointments Upcoming, Confirmed, Cancelled, Completed, or No-Show. - Keep your team's hours straight: Studio and artist hours, time off so nobody gets booked while away, and a Schedule view of the whole team's week. - Automatic booking confirmations: Every appointment fires an instant confirmation text from your own template, honoring each client's SMS consent. Switch texts off per appointment. - Collect deposits at booking: Your confirmation goes out with a secure payment link, or copy a link from any appointment and send it yourself. Take the deposit at the counter and the link switches off, so nobody pays twice. - Smarter reminder sequences: Build up to 5 timed SMS reminders per appointment, with live preview. - Take card payments in person: Pair a Stripe M2 card reader and take chip, swipe, and contactless payments with tipping, right from checkout. Sales land in your reports. - Know every client: Client profiles show visits, spend, and deposits at a glance, with purchase history in its own tab. - Online and walk-in check-in: Clients fill out your form before they arrive and land in a Walk-ins tab. Match them and drop them into the Queue, your one dashboard for appointments, forms, and check-ins. - Sync bookings to your phone: One-way calendar sync puts your appointments on your lock screen, your Apple Watch, or wherever your calendar lives. - Capture every lead with Inbox: Share your request link or embed it anywhere. Requests with notes and photo references land in one inbox you can confirm, decline, or convert. - Share your portfolio anywhere: Copy a public portfolio link or embed code for your socials, your site, or a client. - Ditch the paperwork: Go paperless with digital consent forms and health questionnaires, customize them to fit your vibe. - Sync your crew: Invite your team with role-based access to keep everyone on the same page. - Boost revenue with Stripe: Use Stripe as your full POS for service and retail sales, with required consent forms connected to each service. - Track your finances: Monitor sales, deposits, and reports with ease. Your numbers, your control. - Manage your plan in the app: Upgrade, switch plans, or manage your subscription without leaving Tattoo Studio Pro. - Keep it secure: Cloud-based storage and privacy-first design keep your data safe, with auto-lock controls to fit your device. - Run your shop anywhere: Our companion web app lets you manage your studio on any device.
