For tattoo artists and studios

Your clients arrive knowing exactly what they want

Send a private link. They try it on their own body, and you get a picture instead of a guess.

Four steps showing how it works: a client uploads a photo, chooses a tattoo reference, adjusts its size and placement on their own body, then shows the result to their tattoo artist.
Why bookings stall

Nobody can picture a tattoo from a description

Your client is not being difficult. They genuinely cannot tell how a piece will sit on their own body until they see it there, so they hedge, ask for one more mockup, or go quiet.

Days of messages

Long threads about size and placement before anything is agreed, on every single enquiry.

Changes in the chair

Size and placement get reopened on the day, after the stencil is already drawn.

Enquiries that go quiet

A client who cannot picture it postpones the decision instead of booking a date.

How it works

Three steps to a brief you can draw from

  1. 1

    Send your link

    Every client gets their own private fitting room. Paste the link into a DM or an email.

  2. 2

    They decide on their own photo

    They add a photo of themselves and try their reference bigger, smaller and in different spots, as many times as they like.

  3. 3

    You get the brief as a picture

    Their choice comes back to you as a picture, so the size, the spot and the direction are settled before you start drawing.

The four stages in order: a client, the reference they found, that reference sized and placed on a photo of their own body, and the artist receiving it.
Any reference works

A photo becomes something they can try on

Clients turn up with screenshots, pet photos and holiday snaps. Tatship turns any of it into something they can size and place on their own body, so a half formed idea reaches you as a specific brief instead of a vague one.

FAQ

Questions artists ask

Does this replace the artist?

No. You design and tattoo the piece exactly as you do now. What it removes is the guesswork before that: your client works out how big, where on the body, and roughly which direction they want, so your first drawing answers a brief they have already agreed to.

How does it save me time?

Most of the back and forth before a booking is about size and placement. When a client settles that on their own photo and sends you the result, you begin from a clear brief instead of a description.

Does the client need to install anything?

No. Your link opens in any phone browser, with no app and no account to create. Their photos stay private to that link.

What does it cost?

You can try it free with your own clients before deciding whether it earns a place in how you book.
