Built from the chair, for the chair

YOUR DMS ARE NOT A BOOKING SYSTEM

LVL2 turns booking requests, deposits, flash claims, waivers, reminders, and your public profile into one shop flow.

RUN THE SHOP WITHOUT CHASING EVERY LOOSE END

Invite artists, collect deposits, manage bookings, keep flash days organized, and give clients one clean place to find the chair.

01 · The mess

Every loose DM costs chair time.

Tattooers are doing admin work in apps that were never built for the chair.

01
Leak
Booking requests scatter across DMs.Reference photos, budget, placement, and dates get buried before the deposit is even paid.

No-shows hit the day twice.You lose the slot, then lose more time chasing the client after it already happened.

Flash drops get messy fast.People claim the same design, time slots collide, and the sheet turns into a comment-thread fight.

Clients pick before they walk in.

Drop your flash sheet. LVL2 auto-numbers every design, builds a pick-a-number page, and spaces the day into even time slots. Use one price for the whole sheet, or set a different price per design. Clients claim design #07 at 2:15pm from the couch — slot organized, follow-up ready.

04 · SHOP TOOLS

Bookings are the start.
LVL2 handles the work around them.

Store setup, stencil prep, and promo assets live beside the booking flow so artists are not jumping between five tools after every request.

One shop flow. Fewer loose ends.

01
Artist storefront

A storefront on the same page clients already use.

A real store tied to your profile and booking page. Prints, stickers, zines, shirts, flash leftovers, one-of-ones. The point is simple: your work should still move when you are not tattooing.

CatalogYou list it
PricingYou set it
FulfillmentYou ship it
CheckoutReturns after payments
02
Stencil lab

Stencil prep from the references clients send.

Reference in. Tattoo-ready line direction out. Not "AI art." A working stencil lane that stays inside the artist workflow instead of disappearing into another app.

InputAny ref
OutputClean lines
03
Creative studio

Promo assets from the work you already shot.

Story tiles, flash-drop flyers, booking-open posts, promo crops. Built for the artist who would rather tattoo than open five design tools just to announce they have time next week.

07 · APP STORE REVIEWS

Real artists are
already saying it.

★★★★★

Lvl2.ink has been really helpful for keeping all my tattoo ideas organized. I like being able to save inspiration, look at designs, and keep everything in one place before booking with an artist. If you’re looking for a good tattoo app or something for tattoo inspiration and planning, this app is definitely worth using.

All I can say is wow! · APP STORE

★★★★★

Has all the resources to connect client and other trades. It’s a central hub to simplify booking for both parties. The tattoo booking was so simple and straight forward. Takes the complications off the table.

MOST RESOURCEFUL APP!! · APP STORE

★★★★★

All I could ever need in one app. Easy to use and hands down going to be the hottest app for artist everywhere!

Insane · APP STORE

★★★★★

If I could give it more stars I would. If you’re an artist you NEED this app. I cannot stress enough. The features are insane! This is THE app for tattoo artists. Download it and you’ll see what I’m talking about. And even for your clients! This blows any other booking service completely out of question. I’ve used personal managers, square, venue. Doesn’t even come close to this even a personal manager! This offers everything that could possibly come to an artists mind when it comes to this side of what we do.
