Small heart on a forearm
Tatbot
the tattoo robot
Tattooing is an ancient human art, which has transformed with technology over centuries. Robotic tattooing of AI-generated art is the latest evolution. I am looking for artists, developers, and investors to join me on this journey.
Get involved
Artists
Tattoo robots will become as common as tattoo machines. We’re building Tatbot to run on local hardware in your own studio. Generate your own designs, develop your unique style, and fully customize your tool. Tatbot lets you own your own future.
Developers
Work on a disgustingly hard problem. Tattooing requires impossible precision, perfect consistency, and exquisite artistic taste. An infinite stream of problems to solve: imitation learning, multiview reconstruction, realtime tracking, generative art pipelines. Build in public with an open source community and make a mark on the history of art.
Investors
Tattooing is a sacred ancient art and a multibillion global industry. When tattoo machines were first introduced they were hated. Tattooing has a complicated relationship with technology. Tatbot plans to lease robots to tattoo studios, with software and maintenance included. Artists direct the work and keep their client relationships.
