Designed around real tattoo workflows.

Built by a tattoo artist with nearly 20 years in the industry. Tattoo artists already carry enough in their head — client history, needle groupings, colour names, machine settings, healed results, references, stencil versions, waivers and follow-ups.

NeedleNote Artist keeps that studio knowledge organised around how tattoos actually unfold: Client → Consultation → Tattoo Project → Sessions → complete history.

Not another booking app. Professional software made specifically for tattoo artists — enter it once, use it everywhere.

Built from real tattoo workflows

NeedleNote was created by a working tattoo artist and shaped around the practical details that matter in a real studio — clients, sessions, setups, colour records, stencil planning and tattoo history.

Everything that matters, in one place.

Clients & Consultations

Meet someone new, create them inline during a consultation, and plan idea, placement and size without leaving the flow.

Tattoo Projects

Sleeves, backs and multi-sitting pieces live as one project — not scattered sessions.

Sessions

Needles, machines, colour, fresh and healed photos — logged for the next sitting.

Stencil Hub & NeedlePrint

Create standalone stencils, size on paper, split pages with overlap and registration — then attach a client later. Pro.

Colour Lab & Machine Hub

Save mixes and machine presets the way you talk about them in the studio.

Local-first Cloud

Your data belongs to you. Work offline. Sign in and cloud sync keeps client and session details protected — never held hostage.

Tutorial videos are being added. For now, the Artist Handbook contains the full written walkthroughs.

Free to learn. Pro for the complete toolkit.
