The platform
WEBSITE
Every BT Ink artist gets a real tattoo artist portfolio website — not a link-in-bio page. Pick a design, upload your work, and go live with a site that actually makes you look professional. Connect your own domain when you're ready.
BOOKING
One tattoo artist booking link. Clients pick a time, pay a deposit, and book themselves — while you're actually tattooing. Online booking for tattoo artists, without screenshot-scheduling or 'hey are you free Thursday?' at midnight.
PORTFOLIO
Upload your portfolio and tattoo flash management in a gallery that looks as good as your art. Tag styles, mark pieces as taken, and stop fielding 'is this available?' DMs twenty times a day.
CLIENT CRM
Tattoo client management that keeps references, messages, booking details, and updates in one thread per client. No more digging through DMs at 11pm trying to find that reference photo someone sent two weeks ago.
PAYMENTS
Tattoo deposit collection at booking — watch your no-show rate drop. Track payments, payouts, and commission splits — no more chasing Venmo screenshots or doing math in your Notes app.
ANALYTICS
Revenue, tips, no-shows, booking trends — actual numbers instead of vibes. Tattoo scheduling software insights: know which days fill fastest, which services earn you the most, and stop flying blind.
Free for founding artists. No credit card required.

Why artists are switching
Built for artists like you
We built this for the way you actually work — not the way salon software thinks you should.
Solo artist, booked through Instagram
Half your evenings are spent answering the same booking questions, juggling screenshot schedules, and losing track of who confirmed what.
BT Ink gives you a booking link that handles scheduling, deposits, and intake — while you sleep.
Renting a chair, building your own brand
You do great work but your online presence lives under the shop's name. You don't have your own site, your own booking, or your own client list.
BT Ink gives you your own portfolio website, your own booking system, and your own brand — completely separate from the shop.
Traveling between cities and conventions
Every new city means rebuilding your booking system from scratch. New DMs, new confusion, new no-shows.
BT Ink travels with you. One link, one site, one system — works everywhere you go.
Running a multi-artist studio
Managing multiple artists, split commissions, and scheduling across whiteboards and shared Google Calendars. Nothing talks to each other.
BT Ink gives your whole shop one system — with individual artist sites, automatic commission splits, and a single dashboard.
Founding artist pricing
Sign up during early access and your price never goes up. Ever.
