Consent-first by design
a versioned, recorded consent step before anything is processed.

The operating system for
tattoo businesses.
Not a calendar tool. Not a CRM kit. One connected system where the inquiry, the consultation, the appointment, the consent and the customer are the same record.
Every screen below is the live product.

CRM
No inquiry left behind.
Every inquiry lands in one pipeline with source, status and a running clock. The system knows your opening hours, escalates what goes stale and follows up on its own.
- Speed-to-lead timers — opening-hours-aware clocks with escalation when a lead waits too long.
- Three contact phases — a structured cadence instead of “I meant to call them back.”
- Automated follow-up — WhatsApp and email follow-ups fire on phase changes — written once, logged always.
- Source attribution — Website, Google, Meta, TikTok — with ad spend against every funnel.
Project folders
The project file is the product.
Every tattoo project is one structured folder: idea, style, placement on a body map, size, budget, references, artist, sessions, deposit, change log — and everything the consultation produced.
- Body map — 2D pins and painted areas, plus a 3D body model.
- Budget & deposit — expected price, agreed price, deposit — on the record.
- Multi-session support — large projects with planned session chains.
- PDF dossier — one signed link for the whole project file.
Calendar
One calendar. Every chair.
Consultations, sessions and walk-ins across all artists — with iCloud sync, so appointments land in the phone calendar your team already checks.
- Artist scheduling — per-artist colors, availability and bookable slots.
- Walk-ins — a QR intake funnel that files walk-ins like any other lead.
- iCloud / CalDAV sync — two-way, per studio, credentials encrypted.
Studio IQ
Consultations that document themselves.
Studio IQ records the consultation — after the customer’s consent, which itself becomes part of the record — transcribes it in the browser, recognizes who is speaking on the device, and extracts a complete project file.
Audio never leaves the device
speech recognition and speaker matching run locally; only text is processed.

Customer summary
a clean recap ready to send by email or WhatsApp.
On the roadmap: consultation quality insights for shop-manager coaching.
Digital consent
Paperwork, retired.
The customer completes the consent on their own phone — ID scan, health questions, risk confirmation, signature. The studio gets a complete, reviewable, exportable record tied to the appointment.
- AI ID check — front and back, cross-checked against the machine-readable zone, 18+ enforced.
- Risk review workflow — critical answers route to the studio for explicit approval.
- Four-phase photo documentation — before, stencil, process, result — plus hygiene protocol.
- PDF + legal archive — consent PDF, documentation PDF and a ZIP bundle, always retrievable.
- Share by QR, link or WhatsApp — in German, English and Russian.
Analytics
Numbers instead of gut feeling.
Revenue forecasts, conversion, show-up rates, customer acquisition cost — computed from your own data. And Artist Intelligence scores every artist by long-term business value, not booked hours.
Artist applications
Recruiting, structured.
A public application funnel feeds a staged pipeline. The platform checks whether an artist already exists network-wide and sends the invitation automatically when you take them on.
Operations
Run the studio, not the tools.
Task boards for the team, customer surveys across the journey, an activity log of who did what, waitlists that fill open books — the operational layer around the craft.
