Questions, answered
Everything you’re wondering about.
The basics
What is Riva?
Riva is an AI Receptionist for tattoo artists and studios. Riva replies to WhatsApp and Instagram DM enquiries 24×7, books appointments, and keeps clients coming back.
Can Riva increase my bookings?
Yes. Quicker replies, professional conversations, automatic follow-ups, and consistent lead qualification turn more enquiries into appointments.
Where do my clients talk to Riva? Do they download a new app?
No, clients need not download any app. Riva meets your clients where they already message you - Instagram DMs and WhatsApp.
How quickly does Riva reply?
Within seconds, 24×7 - so you never lose a client because you replied too late.
How Riva works
What does Riva ask new clients?
Everything your studio needs - tattoo idea, reference images, style, placement, size, colours, budget, preferred dates, and more.
Does Riva understand tattoo terminology?
Yes. Riva is trained to understand tattoo styles, placements, sizing, pricing, budgets, and the way tattoo studios work. Fine-line, realism, blackwork, traditional and neo-traditional, Japanese, geometric, tribal, script and lettering, watercolour - Riva knows the language. It gets cover-ups, scar and stretch-mark work, freehand pieces, sleeves and half-sleeves, colour versus black-and-grey, and touch-ups, so clients feel understood from the very first message.
Can Riva be trained for my studio?
Yes. You decide what Riva says - your pricing, studio policies, FAQs, and anything else unique about your studio.
Can Riva handle lots of enquiries at once?
Yes. Every lead gets a reply straight away, whether it's a quiet Tuesday or the morning after your post goes viral. Nobody waits their turn.
Does Riva negotiate with clients on my behalf?
Yes. Riva answers common pricing questions, explains your pricing, handles objections, and keeps conversations moving until you're ready to step in. And if you'd rather keep pricing off the table, you can configure Riva to never mention, discuss, or negotiate prices - it'll gather the details and hand the money conversation straight to you.
What if a client stops replying?
Riva automatically follows up, so fewer enquiries go cold.
The experience
Will clients know they're talking to AI?
Riva introduces itself as Riva, from your studio. It won't pretend to be you or make up a name. Most clients just carry on with the conversation - a fast, useful reply matters more to them than who typed it. If someone asks outright whether they're talking to a bot, Riva says yes. We don't let it lie about that. A client who works it out later feels tricked, and that lands on your studio. And the moment a conversation needs you, Riva hands it over.
How does Riva improve my clients' experience?
Every client gets a quick, professional response, while you give your full attention to the person sitting in your chair.
Will Riva help me create better tattoos?
Yes, that's the idea. While Riva handles conversations, you stay fully focused on designing, tattooing, and giving every client your full attention and the best experience.
How does Riva help my peace of mind?
No more constantly checking your phone, worrying about unread messages, or wondering if you missed a lead. Riva keeps conversations moving 24×7.
Can Riva help after the session?
Yes. Riva sends aftercare guides, healing check-ins, review requests, referral prompts, and tattoo anniversary messages.
Getting started
How do I sign up for Riva?
We're onboarding a limited number of studios to ensure every studio gets founder-led onboarding and support. Join the waitlist, and we'll reach out as spots open up.
Is Riva meant for tattoo studios or artists?
Both. Riva works just as well for solo artists and freelancers as it does for small, growing, and large multi-artist studios - whether it's your DMs or the whole studio's, Riva handles them.
How much does Riva cost?
Pay only for what you use - no monthly subscription. We'll walk you through pricing when we meet you.
