Tattoo Flash & Session vs NeedleFlow

From first sketch to healed tattoo, Ink is the project manager built for tattoo artists. Track every client, every design revision, every session detail, and every ink used across multi-session sleeves and large pieces. WHY TATTOO ARTISTS NEED INK Multi-session sleeves take 12-18 months. Ink codes, needle configs, and machine voltages from Session 1 must be matched exactly in Session 5. Without documentation, color matching becomes guesswork, continuity breaks, and your signature style loses its precision. Ink solves this. THE SESSION LOG - Continuity for Every Piece - Log every ink: brand, color name, area applied, and notes per session - Log every needle configuration: type, use case, and voltage setting - Machine settings: stroke length, voltage, rotary vs coil - Fresh session photos plus healed photos at 4-8 weeks - Notes for next session - exactly what to continue and what to match CLIENT MANAGEMENT - Track up to 15 clients free (unlimited with Pro) - Client skin type, allergies, medical notes, and ID verification - Lifetime session count and revenue per client - Phone, email, and Instagram handle in one place - Notes that follow every client across every project DESIGN REVISION TRACKER - Every sketch, every revision, every piece of client feedback - Flag the approved design so stencil day is stress-free - Never lose which version the client approved - Photo each revision and see the creative journey from concept to skin SCHEDULING + DEPOSITS - Book sessions with date, time, and estimated duration - Track deposit status: paid, pending, or not required - Remaining balance calculated automatically - Session notes visible on appointment day PRO - WAITLIST MANAGER Keep a ranked waitlist of clients waiting for availability.
