Watch it run
a workshop.
Thirty-two seconds at a demo workshop: a new order, each piece moved on, a payment recorded, and the page the client sees. This is the app as it is today.
Somewhere on every workbench there is a notebook. Sizes in pencil, balances in pen, a phone number on the back page. It has served you well. It also gets lost, gets greasy, and never reminds anyone of anything.
ThimbleKit is that notebook, grown up.
Three steps.
Then back to work.
Here is one real order, start to finish: a six-seater dining table for Mrs Walsh. The same three steps work for a gown, a pair of shoes or a cake.
Add the client
Pick the craft and fill in the measurements that matter. Or send them a link to fill in their own.

Create the order
Reference photos, price, deposit and due date, all on one card. The balance works itself out.
Share the link
One tap sends it on WhatsApp. Your client follows along, and you get back to the bench.
Your fields.
Your craft.
Pick what you make and ThimbleKit sets up the right measurements: body sizes for a tailor, foot length for a cobbler, dimensions and wood for a carpenter. Every record is dated, so repeat clients never start from a blank page.
Snap the material. Keep the reference picture. Pin both to the order.
They check their order.
You keep working.
Every order gets its own link. Send it once on WhatsApp and your client can see how far along it is, when it will be ready, and what is left to pay. No more "is it ready yet?"

Know who still owes you.
Deposits, part-payments and the transfer screenshot, all kept against the order. One page shows what is owed, by whom, and since when. A polite reminder is one tap away.
One book.
Every bench.

“It started with my brother’s workshop: lost measurements, forgotten balances, endless ‘is it ready?’ calls. Then we met cobblers, bakers and carpenters with the exact same notebook.”

Free covers a one-person workshop for good. Grow into Pro or Business when you add people and branches. Your records are always yours to export.

Good questions.
Still unsure? Ask us. A real person answers. More in the help centre.
- Do I need strong data?
- No. ThimbleKit is built for a budget phone on weak data, and photos are shrunk before they upload. With no signal, you can still open your orders and clients, move work on and record payments; it all sends when you’re back.
- My craft isn't listed.
- Build your own fields in minutes: upholstery, printing, leatherwork, anything you make.
- Is my clients' information safe?
- Only you and the staff you add can see it. It is backed up, and you can export it anytime.
- Can my apprentices use it?
- Yes. Each person gets their own login. They do the work; the money totals and settings stay with you.
- What does it cost?
- Free covers one workshop with a small team, for good. Pro and Business add more workshops, staff and showcase pieces, priced in US dollars, or in naira for workshops in Nigeria. Your records stay yours to export on any plan.
- Does it work in my country?
- Yes. Charge in your own currency, type phone numbers the way people do where you are, and measurements start in inches or centimetres to match your country. You can change any of it in Settings.
- Is there an app to download?
- It runs in your phone's browser today and can be added to your home screen. Store apps are coming.
Your craft,
in order.
