Founding Studio Programme ยท 10 places only

Run your studio from one place

Crafteris replaces the patchwork of booking tools, spreadsheets, till software, and kiln paperwork โ€” built by studio owners, for studio owners.

Tested daily in a real working studio. Indicative plans from โ‚ฌ19/month โ€” founding studios lock in their rate for life.

Built by Studio Owners, for Studio Owners

Crafteris wasn't created by a generic software company. It was developed by creative studio operators who experienced the same challenges of managing bookings, memberships, payments, production workflows and customer communication across multiple disconnected systems.

Every feature has been designed around the real-world needs of creative studios, helping owners spend less time managing software and more time running their business.

Tested Daily in a Real Working Studio

Crafteris is already being actively used and refined in a working creative studio environment.

Bookings, memberships, payments, customer management and production workflows are tested against real day-to-day studio operations before new features are released.

This helps ensure the platform remains practical, reliable and focused on solving real studio challenges.

  • Built by Studio Owners
  • Tested Daily in a Working Studio
  • Designed Specifically for Creative Studios

Sound familiar?

Too many tools

Squarespace for the site, Acuity for bookings, a spreadsheet for kiln loads, another app for the till โ€” and nothing talks to each other.

Staff training is painful

Every new hire learns five systems. You become the help desk for "where do I find that booking?"

Members want more

They expect to book studio time, track their work, and pay online โ€” but your setup wasn't built for that.

Kiln & production

Built for studios that create physical work

Built specifically for studios that create physical work, including kiln firing, work orders, collection notifications, production tracking and customer history.

Most booking platforms stop at the calendar. Crafteris follows the work all the way through the kiln and out the door.

  • Work orders submitted by members from their phone
  • Firing schedules and kiln load tracking
  • Collection notifications when work is ready
  • Full production and customer history in one place

Kiln & Production Manager

From drop-off to pickup โ€” work orders, firing tracking, collection alerts, and production history without spreadsheets or sticky notes.
