Glass studio software
A glass studio's day, from the walk-in to the pickup text.
Make-your-own glass studios run on the same rhythm as pottery studios: guests make something, it goes in the kiln, and someone has to tell them when it's ready. StudioConnect handles that day.

Honestly: Glass fusing and slumping schedules aren't built yet — kiln lanes today are pottery cones. Tell us how your kilns run and we'll build it with you.

Questions studios ask
Does StudioConnect support glass fusing schedules?
Not yet. Kiln lanes today are pottery cones (bisque ^04, earthenware ^06, stoneware ^6). Glass studios use loads, costs, tickets and pickup notices now; fusing and slumping schedules are on our list.
Can I use it for a mixed pottery and glass studio?
Yes — visits, checkout, bookings, staff and the books are shared, and each piece keeps its own program.
