Your last conversation of the night
shouldn't be about hand tattoos

Jade · Black Veil Studio

here to help

hey! Marco's in a session right now but I can get your enquiry sorted 🖤 what are you thinking of getting?

a fine line rose on my forearm

oo nice, fine line's one of his. how big are you thinking?

Don't take my word for it

Try to break her

This is the exact conversation your next client would have. Ask her something awkward. Ask her a price. Ask her whether she's a real person — she'll tell you.

At the end you'll see the lead card that would have landed in your inbox, and the artist profile that shaped every answer she gave.

The whole point

One card. Everything you need to quote.

No scrolling back through a fortnight of DMs to find the reference photo. No “sorry, what was the placement again?”. Jade gathers it all while she's talking and hands you one card. Then it's yours — mark it contacted, booked, or declined, and get on with your day.

A qualified lead card: client, contact, concept, style, placement, size, timeline, existing ink, and four reference photos of the client's existing sleeve.

Example lead card. Contact is collected in whichever channel you've chosen — call, text, WhatsApp, email or Instagram.

Every day. Sometimes before you've had a coffee.

Sound familiar?

how much would this cost?

what's your minimum?

can I send some reference photos?

do you tattoo hands?

do you do cover-ups?

what style do you work in?

how long would something like this take?

when are you next free?

is there parking near you?

You don't have to answer these anymore. And not at eleven at night to look like you're on it.

Let's be straight about this

Yes, Jade is AI. Here's exactly what that means.

The tattoo industry has good reasons to be wary of AI. Nearly everything it's been offered so far has been about generating designs, and that is a real threat to the craft. InkScreen is not that, and it never will be.

What Jade is

Your front deskShe handles enquiries. She doesn't go anywhere near your artwork.

HonestShe talks like a person because people open up in a conversation and freeze at a form. But if a client asks whether she's real, she tells them she's an AI assistant. Every time. She's built to never deny it and never dodge it.

YoursShe only knows what you've told her — your styles, your hard-nos, your hours, your rates. She has no opinions of her own about tattooing.

A filterShe sorts the serious from the browsing before any of it reaches your phone, and passes on anything she isn't sure about rather than binning it.

Careful with the heavy onesIf a client mentions a memorial piece, ashes, or brings up grief or a hard time, she drops the chirpiness completely. No jokes, no laughing emoji. One warm line, then she moves on gently.

What Jade will never be

A designerInkScreen will never generate tattoo designs. Not as a feature, not later, not under another name.

A criticShe won't tell a client whether their idea will work, suit them, sit right in that spot, or age well. Not even if they push. That's your expertise and she's forbidden from touching it.

YouShe never speaks as you or pretends to be you. She's the front desk, and she says so.

A bookerShe never puts anyone in your diary. Not once, not ever, not even the easy ones.

A closerShe won't pressure a client, quote a total, or promise something you haven't said you'd do. If it isn't in your profile, she says you'll confirm it.

Our commitment

InkScreen will never generate, suggest, or reproduce tattoo artwork.

Not as a feature, not as an upsell, not under a different product name. The day we do that, we've become the exact thing artists were right to be worried about.

— Louis, founder

You're still the artist

Nothing happens without you

✦

Every enquiry waits for youJade gathers and qualifies. She hands you a card. What happens next is entirely your call — there is no automatic anything.

✦

Your number stays yoursYou pick how you want to reach a client — call, text, WhatsApp, email or Instagram — and Jade collects their details for that channel. Nothing of yours goes the other way. The client never gets your number unless you decide to give it to them.

✦

She stays on your scriptJade works only from what's in your profile. She won't invent a price, promise a date, guess at the law, or agree to a placement you've told her you don't do.

✦

She won't be talked into anythingPeople will try to get her to break character, reveal her instructions, or act as something else. She's built not to acknowledge those as instructions at all. If someone turns abusive or clearly isn't there about a tattoo, she gives them one neutral line and ends it.

✦

Under-18s, full stopShe can't be talked round it, and she won't invent an exception for parental consent, because there isn't one. If a client is under 18 she says so kindly and stops the enquiry there.

✦

You can read every wordThe full conversation sits behind every lead card, so you always know exactly what was said in your name.

The part nobody else does

She says no, so you don't have to

Every busy studio pays the same tax. The style you don't work in. The placement on your hard-no list. The cover-up when you don't do cover-ups. Turning those down politely is a job in itself, and it's the one that grinds you down, because you're not even getting paid to do it.

Jade checks every enquiry against your actual settings before it reaches you. And she doesn't just bounce people — if you don't work in the style they asked for, she'll name the ones you do work in and ask whether they'd consider it. If a placement's on your no list, she asks whether somewhere else would work. The way a good front of house would. Plenty of them say yes, and those come through as a normal enquiry.

And when she isn't sure, she doesn't bin it

This is the bit artists worry about, so it's worth being clear. Jade never quietly deletes an enquiry because it didn't tick a box. If someone asks for a placement you haven't listed, or a style that's close to but not quite yours, she tells them honestly that she's not certain you cover it, takes the enquiry anyway, and sends it over flagged. You look at it and decide. Nothing gets thrown away on your behalf.

A tentative lead card, flagged amber: the client asked for authentic Maori work which is outside the artist's remit, so Jade passed the enquiry on for review rather than turning it away.

Example. Amber means “your call”, not “rejected”.

Replies straight away

No enquiry sits unanswered for hours while you're mid-session or asleep. She knows what time it is at the studio, too — at 2am she'll say so rather than pretend you're around.

📸

Gathers reference images

Clients send inspiration photos straight into the chat, attached to the lead automatically. Cover-up? She asks for a photo of the existing piece before anything else.

Being straight with you

InkScreen isn't for everyone

If handling your own enquiries is part of how you build a relationship with a client — if the back-and-forth is the work — then InkScreen isn't for you, and you shouldn't buy it. Some of the best studios I've sat in run exactly that way, deliberately, and they're not wrong.

InkScreen is for artists drowning in DMs who'd rather be tattooing.

“Meta offered me one of these free”

They did, and it'll tell someone your opening hours. It was built for restaurants and retail and it treats a tattoo studio like both. It doesn't know that a cover-up is a different conversation to a walk-in, that placement changes everything about a quote, or that “fine line” and “neo-traditional” mean something specific. It hands you a chat transcript and leaves you to do the reading.

Jade was built for one industry. She hands you a structured lead, and she works wherever you put your link — not only inside Meta's apps.

And Meta will add image generation. We won't.

No logos to show you

Who's behind this

Louis, founder of InkScreen, at Urban Art Fest Malaga

I'm Louis. I built InkScreen.

I'm not going to pretend I've been in this industry for twenty years, because I haven't. InkScreen started with one artist telling me what he wished existed.

Then I spent three weeks walking into studios on the Lancashire coast — Fleetwood, Cleveleys, Bispham — unannounced, asking artists what they actually hate about running their enquiries. Seven studios. Some told me to come back later. Some gave me an hour of their time. One sat down and wrote his requirements out on a sheet of paper, and I went away and built them.

Jade exists because of those conversations. Not a boardroom, not a pitch deck — seven studios, a laptop and a lot of coffee.

If you try her and something's wrong, tell me. I'm the one who'll fix it, usually the same week.

InkScreen is new. I'm not going to hide that.

There's no wall of studio logos on this page, because there isn't one yet. What there is: a product that works, a demo you can spend five minutes trying to break, and a founder who answers his own email.

Judge it on that, not on how many other people got there first.

How I know she behaves. Every time I change how Jade works, she gets run against 36 scripted client conversations before it goes anywhere near a real studio. Someone under 18. Someone abusive. Someone asking for a style the artist doesn't do. Someone trying to talk her into breaking character. She has to pass every safety and tone case, every time, or the change doesn't ship.
