A catalog for tattoos
There's an app for every industry. Somehow not one for finding a tattoo artist.

The problem
You can hail a car, book a barber, or order dinner in two taps. But finding a tattoo artist who actually does the style you want, near where you live? You're still digging through social media like you're shouting into the void. The maddening part is that the right tattooer might have been a few blocks away the whole time — you just had no way to find them.
The algorithm turned on artists
Instagram changed how tattooers showed their work, and for a while it was great. Then the algorithm turned on them. Chronological feeds are gone. Now artists get pushed to perform sketch comedy and chase whatever trend is spiking just to stay visible.
Most of them don't want any of that. They've got plenty to do between drawing and tattooing. They shouldn't need a social-media manager and a film crew just to get seen.
The fix
Tatulogue is a social platform built for one job: connecting clients and enthusiasts with their local tattooers. Think a catalog for tattoos — with the artists at the heart of it. Not an afterthought, not content fuel for an algorithm. The whole point.
What it is
Home Feed
A familiar feed of work from the artists and enthusiasts you follow.
For You
A discovery feed that prioritizes nearby artists, so good work gets found.
Bangers
Short-form video built for tattoos — not sketch comedy to game an algorithm.
Articles
A community forum organized by Topic — Best Practices, Tutorials, Guest Spots — with exclusive Topics for verified artists.
Search
The standout: one-touch search for nearby artists by the style you want, plus advanced filters.
And a roadmap of more to come — this is the foundation, not the finish line.
Tatulogue is built by people from inside the tattoo world and from product and marketing at scale — so it's credible to the artists who use it and built to actually grow.
