ArtworkDesk

Every custom order, from artwork to dispatch.

Your website takes the order. ArtworkDesk asks the customer for their design, sends them the mockup to sign off, and puts approved jobs on your production board, so nothing is printed until it's right.

14 days free, no card needed. Works alongside the shop you already have.

How a job moves

Every product on an order gets its own artwork, mockup and production progress, so a mug can be printing while the hoodies are still with the customer.

  1. Order in

    Add the order

    Orders from your shop arrive by themselves; phone and email orders take a minute to type in, or turn an approved quote into one. Sizes, colours, decoration and print positions per product.

  2. Artwork

    The design arrives

    One click emails the customer an upload link. Their files land on the right product, and you're told straight away.

  3. Mockup

    They sign it off

    Send the mockup. The customer approves it or asks for changes, and their name, the time and their comments are recorded.

  4. Production

    Made and sent

    Approved work joins your production board. Record the dispatch and the customer gets their tracking link.

Your customer's mockup page
The page a customer sees to approve a mockup or ask for changes, in the print business's own colours

Sign-off your customers actually do

No accounts and no passwords for your customers. Every email carries a private link to a page in your colours and with your logo, where they can:

  • Upload their artwork for each product
  • See the mockup large, approve it, or say what to change
  • Accept a quote, and follow their order to dispatch

Approvals are recorded with the customer's name, the time and the version they approved, so there's never an argument about what was agreed. Reminders go out automatically if a mockup is waiting.

One desk for all the design work

See what needs a mockup, what's with the customer and who still owes you artwork. Changes requested come first, with the customer's comment beside them.

  • Mockup versions kept, with the full history
  • Approve on a customer's behalf when they say yes on the phone
  • Approved designs are locked, so what's made is what was signed off

Production
The production board with jobs in Queued, Pre-press, Printing and Finishing

A production board that matches your workshop

Approved jobs line up rush first, then by due date. Drag them through your own stages, whether that's pre-press, screen printing, curing and packing, or something else entirely.

  • Assign jobs to your team; everyone sees "my jobs"
  • The approved mockup on every card
  • Dispatch with tracking links for Royal Mail, DPD, Evri, DHL and more

Quotes from your own price books

Pick a product and a quantity and the right price break fills in, setup fee included. Give trade customers their own prices. Customers accept online, and you approve the quote when it's paid, then turn it into an order in one click.

  • Quantity breaks and setup fees per product
  • Discounts and VAT per line
  • Invoicing stays in your accounts software
Quote
A quote accepted by the customer, ready to approve and turn into an order

That's the day-to-day. Stock, purchase orders, reports, shop and courier connections, white labelling and more are in the full feature list, plan by plan.

Questions

Does it connect to my online shop?

Yes, on the Pro and Business plans. Connect Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Etsy, Squarespace, Ecwid or PrestaShop and orders arrive by themselves, with the customer, products, sizes and personalisation filled in. On Starter, or for orders by phone and email, you add the order yourself in under a minute. See every integration.

Do my customers need an account?

No. Each email has a private link to their order, mockup or quote. They type their name to approve, and that's recorded.

What file types can customers upload?

AI, EPS, PDF, SVG, PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP, PSD, TIFF, CorelDRAW, embroidery files (DST, PES, EMB), 3D and cutting files (STL, 3MF, OBJ, STEP, DXF), Word documents and ZIP files, up to 50 MB each. Mockups you send can be images or PDFs.

Does it do invoicing?

No, invoicing stays in your accounts software. ArtworkDesk handles quotes, approval and production. On Pro and Business, a won quote can go across to Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent or Sage as a draft invoice, with the customer and every line filled in, ready for you to check and send there.

What happens when the trial ends?

The free trial is 14 days with everything in Pro, and no card is needed. At the end, choose a plan to carry on. If you don't, your account pauses. Everything is kept for 30 days, so you can pick up where you left off, then it's deleted.

Can I cancel at any time?

Yes. Plans are monthly or yearly, and you can cancel from the billing page. You keep access until the end of the month (or year) you've paid for. After that you have 90 days to download your data (as spreadsheets, or everything including files in one ZIP) or come back, then it's deleted.
