Gauge Studio · on the desk

Every chair, every artist, one desk.

The floor, the roster and the deals, consent per service, your website, the numbers. Artists bring their own app and link up in a minute.

The floor

Every artist's day on one screen.

One column per artist, by day, week or month. Walk-ins at the front desk, sessions moved by drag, conflicts caught before they happen.

Your page

A website, without the web guy.

Your studio's page on gauge.ink: the statement over your room, the artists, the flash wall, hours and directions. Your colours and your type. Publish when it's right.

Consent

Signed before they sit down. Kept for seven years.

One form per service, written once. It goes out with the confirmation and is signed on the client's phone; walk-ins scan the QR sheet at the desk. Every signed form in one log.
