Studioworks

Together with my friends Jessica, Chris, and Sean, it is my pleasure to present Studioworks, a platform for creative businesses.

We spent 2025 building our first product: an invoicing platform designed for designers. Studioworks already offers the most customizable invoices, and the best prices on transactions (we don’t take a cut), but we have so much more coming soon.

We also spent the year thinking about what a technology company can be:

We agreed that our success should be driven by providing a valuable product to our users. We agreed to offer our product for a fair price that is neither a secret nor a surprise. We agreed that we are custodians of our users’ data, and that it is not ours to share, or sell. We agreed to value stability over growth.

And finally, Faculty is in our DNA, so we agreed that we should always aspire to Good Work.

To honor these principles, we built Studioworks without taking any outside investment. This gives us the freedom to define success for ourselves, and lets our work be driven by our values and our customers’ needs alone. We can focus on chasing customer satisfaction rather than tech industry trends.

Because we’re a small team, we expect to operate sustainably with only 3,000 customers. We all know the frustration of having to suddenly switch the tools you use to run your business because a company you count on has disappeared. We intend to stick around, and we’re making decisions to ensure it.

We haven’t been able to do it alone though. We’ve been supported by our friends and families all along, including our partners at Lineto, Grilli Type, Hex, and Ohno.

And as for that goal of 3,000 customers? We’re well on our way thanks to the support of an enthusiastic group of beta testers that we call our founding members. These folks bought in when all we had to show was ideas, and when we released our beta earlier this year they responded with excitement and valuable feedback.

I couldn’t be more proud of what we’re building at Studioworks. We’re trying to accomplish something different and special, and I hope you will cheer us on.
