How It Works

From registration to pickup — with a workflow that fits your studio. Stick with the simple default, or design your own multi-step process for bisque, glaze, wheel and hand-building pieces.

1

Customer Registers

Customer scan your QR code. They enter their name, email, and snap photos of their pieces. Super easy - try it for yourself in our demo.

2

Advance the Status

One-click status changes — whether that's marking a PYOP piece as Fired, or stepping a clay piece through Bisque Fired, Painted/Glazed and Glaze Fired. Customers get an automatic email (or optional SMS) at every stage you choose.

3

Print Labels

Generate and print QR-coded labels for each piece. Attach them to the bag or item. Instant identification of every item on your shelf.

4

Pickup and Reminders

Everything You Need to Run Smoothly

Built specifically for PYOP and clay studios. Packed with features to simplify your operations — from a single fire-and-pickup cycle to multi-step bisque-and-glaze workflows.

Easy Photo Upload

Customers snap a photo of their pieces during registration. No more guessing which pottery belongs to whom. Try it now!

Automated Emails

Email notifications sent automatically at any status step you choose — registration, bisque firing, glaze firing, ready-for-pickup and more. Customize every template with your own text, logo and colors.

Track Status Online

Customers can check the live status of their pieces via a tracking link in their confirmation email or via your website. No more "When is my piece ready?".

Custom Status Workflows

Design any sequence that matches your studio. Keep the simple Registered → Fired → Collected default, or build a clay flow like Registered → Bisque Fired → Painted → Glaze Fired → Collected. Configure notifications independently for each step.

SMS Notifications

Optional, fully customizable text messages. Choose exactly which status updates and reminders send an SMS. Integrates with Twilio or SimpleTexting — bring your own account, and SMS is charged directly by your provider.

Gallery View

See every submission as a large photo grid. Spot pieces visually, quickly apply status changes, and breeze through kiln days — no more squinting at lists.

Customer Notes & Custom Fields

Let customers add per-piece comments (e.g. "fragile handle") or pick from your own multiple-choice options ("Select your glaze color"). Optional and fully configurable per studio.

Internal Studio Notes

Keep staff-only notes on any submission — reminders, repair instructions, special handling. Visible to your team, never to customers.

QR Code Labels

Generate beautiful, scannable labels with your branding. Print in bulk, attach them to pieces or bags, and never lose track again. Optional: Use the shelf locator feature so your staff can find pieces faster.

Pickup Reminders (Auto or Manual)

Fully automated pickup reminders with customizable messages. Prefer manual reminders? No problem - only one click away. Reduce storage clutter.

Shipping Workflows

Optional: Collect shipping addresses during registration, generate address labels, and notify customers when their pottery is on the way.

Statistics Dashboard

Track item numbers over time. View your kiln and pick-up backlogs. Make informed decisions about investments and operations.

Your Branding

Custom logo, colors, and domain. Customers see your brand, not ours. Professional experience throughout.

Mailchimp Integration

Optional: Invite your customers to opt in to your newsletter and automatically add them to a Mailchimp list of your choice.

By Studio Owners, for Studio Owners

We couldn't find a tool to solve our day-to-day problems — so we built one. Now studios on both sides of the Atlantic use it every day.

"The whole system has been absolutely fantastic for my studio. It is just me and one employee and it has made things SO much easier! Thanks so much!!!"

"We spent countless hours sorting pottery after kiln openings, sending individual emails, and dealing with shelves full of uncollected pieces. Now our customers handle registration themselves, notifications go out automatically, and we actually know what's on our shelves."
