Our verdict on Inkbook
Inkbook is tattoo studio management software for New Zealand studios, with tools spanning booking requests, deposits, client records and studio operations. Clients can request appointments through public studio pages and use portals for updates and messages. Digital consent forms and health questionnaires make it suited to artists who want tattoo-specific admin alongside scheduling, rather than a general appointment calendar. It has web, iOS and Android availability, and is offered as a progressive web app that can be installed on a phone’s home screen.
Booking is tied to the broader client workflow: the pipeline supports multi-hour sessions and deposits, while client messaging remains within bookings. Digital forms cover consent and health questionnaires; healing reminders and tattoo progress tracking extend the workflow beyond the appointment. Inventory tracking includes low-stock alerts. This breadth is useful for studios wanting booking, intake, aftercare and stock tasks in one system, though buyers seeking only simple scheduling may find the dedicated tattoo workflow more than they need.
Plans are monthly in NZD: Solo Artist costs NZD 49 for one artist profile, 5 GB photo storage, booking and deposits, client portals, intake and consent forms, plus a public booking page and gallery. Crew is NZD 89, with unlimited clients, 15 GB storage, artist profile pages, and commission splits and payouts. Studio at NZD 129 adds 25 GB, removes Inkbook branding and includes 2,000 marketing emails per month; Studio Pro is NZD 249 with 100 GB and 10,000 marketing emails per month. A 14-day trial is available without a card. Pick Inkbook if tattoo-specific administration and team tools justify a paid plan; choose a simpler scheduler if those workflows are unnecessary.
