general overview

Zumi is an all-in-one platform for tattoo artists and their clients that helps them connect with each other easily, seamlessly and quickly.

Business Challenges

Developing a unique platform with convenient navigation and a robust user experience

Attracting a larger user base

To overcome this challenge, our team started by creating a mobile version of the Zumi platform. This mobile-first approach significantly improved the accessibility and user engagement on the Zumi platform. Users could easily search for tattoo artists, browse portfolios, and communicate with artists, all from the convenience of their mobile phones. As a result, the platform attracted a larger user base, contributing to its overall success and growth.

Unique platform development

Unlike many other industries with established competitors and benchmarks, Zumi had no direct competitors. Our unique platform development approach allowed Zumi to stand out in the market. By offering innovative features and a user experience tailored to the tattoo industry, the platform attracted both tattoo artists and clients seeking a specialized solution. This uniqueness became a key selling point, driving user adoption and setting Zumi apart as an industry leader.

Platform’s future growth

Zumi founder planned to seek investors and grow the platform in the future. To meet this challenge, we designed and implemented a robust and scalable architecture. As the platform gained popularity and the founder pursued investment opportunities, our architecture could seamlessly accommodate increased user activity and additional functionality. This scalability improved the user experience and made the platform more attractive to potential investors, setting Zumi on a path to sustainable growth and expansion.

Values we delivered

All-in-one platform for high user engagement
Zumi is a comprehensive platform tailored to tattoo artists, providing a centralized solution to streamline their operations. Tattoo artists can conveniently organize their sketches, manage session availability, and communicate with clients seamlessly through an integrated chat system. This holistic approach empowers artists to efficiently manage their work, creating a more productive and organized work environment.
Robust architecture for future scalability
We designed the Zumi platform with scalability in mind, ensuring that our client could envision it evolving into a thriving marketplace without needing a complete overhaul. Our scalable architecture enables rapid and efficient implementation of new ideas, allowing the client to expand the platform's offerings, attract more users, and explore new business opportunities with ease.
Effective monetization strategy for clients attraction
To ensure the sustainability and profitability of the project, we developed a robust monetization strategy. This strategy allows our clients to generate revenue from each prepayment made by clients to tattoo artists. By facilitating secure transactions and fair compensation, Zumi creates a win-win situation for both artists and clients, fostering trust and growth within the platform's community. This monetization model has proven to be a successful and sustainable source of income for our clients.

Design System

Our team developed the design system for the Zumi platform from scratch. We created all the necessary elements for the platform (icons, headings, dropdowns, inputs, etc.) We also developed all branding elements, including the logo, following all industry standards and trends.

Features

01. Integration with Google calendar

This feature allows clients who book the date and time of a session with a tattoo artist to transfer the appointment information to their personal Google calendar automatically.

case
02. Integration with Stripe payment system

Using the Stripe payment system, clients make a deposit (prepayment) after booking a session with a tattoo artist. This allows tattoo artists not to lose money for the working day if the client does not come, and clients to be sure that they will come at the exact appointed time.

case
03. Tattoo artist profile

The profile of the tattoo artist includes detailed information about the artist, their sketches and previous works, free dates for sessions, location, etc. Also, each sketch is described in the master’s portfolio and contains the following information: the price of the sketch, its size, placement and style.

case
04. Customer profile

The client’s profile displays the booked dates for the tattoo session, communication preferences and information about their age, gender, etc. Using their profiles, clients can also go to the messenger to communicate with the tattoo master.

case
05. Messenger

This feature is necessary so that clients can communicate with a tattoo artist by choosing a custom tattoo for themselves. In this way, they can quickly discuss the sketch details and other information about the tattoo session.
