About
This was built by a working tattoo artist.
That's the only credential that matters here, so it's the only one I'll give.
Like most of us, my work lives on Instagram, where the algorithm decides who gets seen. Good work disappears into the feed while reach goes to whoever posts most, pays most, or games it best. Clients hunting for a specific style get ads and noise instead of the artist who'd actually be right for them. That's backwards.
So I built the fix I desperately needed and saw the non-tattoo grifters and scammers on IG ads and decided to share it for free. Your social standing rank is active on the sidebar, so you can see where you stand and if all that work and time committed to socials is even worth it. My hope is that you get found for your work — not for behaving like a clown for the algorithm. A hand-checked directory where you're found because you're real and your work is good, not because you ranked, paid, or posted at the right time. Here you're not fighting for attention or followers. You're just listed, by style and by city, for anyone looking.
Why this matters
Your whole presence lives on platforms you don't control. If Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube bans your account, throttles your reach, or changes the rules overnight, everything you built can vanish. Years of curated work, gone.
So beyond the directory, we're building toward helping artists own their presence: their own portfolios, their own simple websites, so when a platform stops serving your work, clients can still find you. The system is built this way on purpose. There's no algorithm here optimizing for engagement.
On the Pro plan
Getting listed is free. If you're an artist, you can register. The Pro plan is kept affordable on purpose: enough to keep the database alive and the leads flowing to the person that matters — you. The free tier still links straight back to your Instagram or booking page, the place where the algorithm lives and your client was about to get distracted by the latest TikTok dance or amazing cat video. We just make sure they find you first.
Like the Yellow Pages
Think of it the way the Yellow Pages used to work. If you exist and you do the work, you should get found. Being found shouldn't cost a fortune or a full-time posting habit.
Get found.
Not lost in an ocean of random content.
