“InkDesk saves me about 50 hours a year — that’s $12,500 in time I used to lose to admin.”
Founder of Boo Radley, Mockingbird Tattoos, & Naughty Comrade
“Now I can focus my time more on the clients in my chair instead of wasting my time with unintuitive software and separate messaging platforms.”
“InkDesk has refined my client communication and scheduling process to one platform! I find myself with more time and energy to focus on tattooing. Would recommend to all my artist friends!”
“InkDesk has allowed me to book my clients a lot more efficiently, especially with the automated emails and booking features! I went from using 2 separate apps to now just using 1, all thanks to InkDesk.”
“I love InkDesk, my clients love it too. It makes it easy for them to request an appointment, send reference images and communicate without wondering if I’ll see the message.”
“Whether I'm at my shop, doing a guest spot, or booking for a convention it makes my life simpler than when I was using Instagram and emails. There's way less chaos in my life!”
“InkDesk has transformed dozens of direct messages into 2-3 clear and concise communications. It saves me loads of time and is a great way to prevent any confusion in your schedule.”
Client Projects come with every InkDesk plan, from $25 a month billed yearly. Unlimited projects and clients, and no booking fees.
Have a question not covered here?
Tattoo client management software keeps every client's details in one place: reference images, placement notes, messages, sessions, deposits and waivers. Instead of searching through DMs, email and your camera roll, everything about a tattoo lives in one project. InkDesk creates the project from the client's booking request and links their messages, sessions, waivers and payments to it, so nothing gets lost between the consult and the last session.
Yes. Add as many sessions as the piece needs. Each one has its own date, length, price and deposit, and the project shows where you are, like Session 2 of 3. It's made for sleeves, back pieces and cover-ups.
Clients upload reference images when they send your booking form, and those land in the project. Photos they email you later are added to the same project. No more screenshots buried in DMs.
Yes. Search by client name or project number, and filter by label, service, artist or date. Your projects are on the web and in the iPhone and Android app.
Yes. In a studio, each project can be assigned to an artist, and the front desk and the artist see the same messages, sessions and notes. You can also share a project with another studio, like for a guest spot, with view-only or edit access.
Yes. Notes are only visible to you and your team. Clients never see them, so you can write down skin notes, stencil sizes or anything from the consult.
Yes. For walk-ins or clients who call, create a project in a few taps, pick or add the client, and add sessions, labels and services yourself.
