Studio Dashboard
The studio dashboard is where you run the shop from one place: see every team member's bookings on a shared calendar, manage who's on your team and how you split money with them, watch how the studio is doing, track the cash, and set up your capacity and work stations.
Open the Bookings tab while signed in as a studio to land here. Across the top you'll see tabs for Calendar, Team, Stats, Accounting, and Settings.
Calendar
One calendar for the whole team. Switch between a Month view and a Week view; tap any day to open that day's timeline. You can filter down to residents or guests, to a discipline, or to specific artists. This is also where you assign artists to work stations and spot scheduling conflicts.
The Calendar is part of the Team Bookings subscription. See Reading the studio calendar.
Team
Your roster. Invite artists by username, accept practitioners who request to join, and decide who can take bookings by handing out booking licenses. It's also where you set each artist's financial arrangement — commission, chair rental, and so on — and remove people who've left.
The Team tab itself is free; handing out booking licenses needs the Team Bookings subscription. Start with Building your studio team.
Stats
Studio-wide analytics: total sessions, how busy each work station is, your busiest days, guest performance, and aggregate revenue. Stats has its own full help section — from here, see The Stats tab.
Accounting
The money side: commission you've earned from team bookings, chair rentals, expenses, refunds, and what's still owed. Accounting also has its own full help section — see The Accounting tab. Even without the Accounting subscription, the Money Settlement screen for reviewing and settling booking money stays free.
Settings
The setup behind everything else: your work stations, how many artists can work at once, how many guests you can host, and the colors each team member shows up as on the calendar. See Capacity, colors, and work stations.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need a subscription to use the dashboard?
The Team and Settings tabs are free. The Calendar needs the Team Bookings subscription, Stats needs Studio Analytics, and the full Accounting tab needs Studio Accounting. Each locked tab shows what it unlocks and the price. See Premium for the studio plans.
- A tab shows a red number on it. What does that mean?
It's a count of things waiting on you. On Team it's pending join requests; on Accounting it's money items that still need action — pending payments you've logged plus outstanding settlement items.
