See the job move from request to paid invoice.
InkOps keeps every job connected as it moves through quote, art, proof, production, invoice, and payment.
// 01 - The path
One connected path.
Every step carries the details forward. No rebuilding the job from scratch. No hunting through email for what changed.

// Stage 01 - Request
Capture the messy request.
Customers rarely send clean specs. They send half-finished emails, old order references, blurry logos, photos, and "same as last year" notes. InkOps helps extract the details and show what is missing.

// Stage 02 - Quote
Build the quote without starting from zero.
InkOps helps turn the request into a structured quote using garments, sizes, pricing rules, customer history, and internal notes. The quote becomes the first version of the job, not a separate document someone has to rebuild later.

// Stage 03 - Art
Keep artwork attached to the order.
Upload files, reuse saved designs, attach mockups, add print notes, and keep design details connected to the customer and job. When a customer says "same as last year," your team knows where to look.

Get approval before production feels it.
Send proofs, track approvals, collect change requests, and keep customer-facing notes separate from internal production notes. No more guessing whether the customer approved the final version.

// Stage 05 - Production
Know what is ready.
Production sees what matters: garments, sizes, art, mockups, due date, rush flag, notes, proof status, and blockers. The goal is simple: fewer questions before the job hits the floor.
