Tap a time slot, add a name, choose SMS or email reminders, and the studio calendar stays concrete after approval.
Artists, clients, and sessions in one calendar.
Schedl uses tattoo studio language, not generic scheduling labels. Owners can add a phone booking, review a request, approve it, and let reminders do the follow-up.
A client sees the business, not the software.
The portal carries the service menu, team context, appointment state, reminders, and manage link in one branded experience.
Client message
Warm, useful, actionable.
Workflow in context
Turn service work into a polished booking journey.
Your new-client revenue stays yours.
Schedl is subscription software. It does not take a marketplace commission from the clients you earned through your own reputation, Instagram, Google listing, or referrals.
Owner opens a real slot
Tap the calendar, choose the service, enter the client, and pick reminder channels.
Client requests a time
They choose service, professional, and time from a branded portal that feels like the business.
Owner approves
Pending requests stay visible until approved, so the calendar only becomes concrete when the owner says yes.
Confirmation + portal link
Client receives a friendly message with a secure manage link for rescheduling, canceling, or staying in touch.
The details matter.
Start free. Stay predictable as the team grows.
The buyer should not have to calculate a surprise bill before they can fall in love with the workflow.

Questions from tattoo studio owners.
Can I require a non-refundable deposit?+
Yes. Deposits are configurable per service — most studios set a flat amount ($100–$200) that counts toward the session total.
Can I block off days for conventions or guest spots?+
Yes. Time-off can be set on any artist's schedule without affecting the rest of the studio.
How do I handle multi-session pieces?+
Book each session as its own appointment. Clients can see all their upcoming sessions on a single confirmation page.
Can clients upload reference images?+
Yes. The booking form supports custom fields including image uploads. References attach to the appointment automatically.
Schedl helps shape the booking workflow and client communication. It does not replace your legal cancellation policy, payment provider terms, or regulated-industry compliance requirements.
