Since switching to Apprentice, I spend less time chasing DMs and more time actually tattooing. The booking system is clean, and my clients love how easy it is to use.
Being able to require deposits and keep track of who paid — even with Venmo — has made my weekends way less chaotic.
I used to overbook myself without realizing. Now I’ve got buffers, session caps, and auto-reminders all doing the heavy lifting.
I don’t have to explain how to book anymore. The link handles it. Clients pick a time, fill out the form, and we’re good to go.
They get reminders, I approve requests, and it all just works. Feels professional without being corporate.
I’ve tried other platforms that clearly weren’t made for tattooers. Apprentice just gets it. From AI design help to scheduling — everything fits the way we actually work.
