Built for photography studios

You shoot.
Sathi handles the rest.

From the first enquiry to the final album — leads, bookings, crew, editing, payments and client updates. All from one dashboard.

The reality today

The real work of a studio
gets lost in the chaos.

Before

Group-chat chaos

Who's shooting which event? It's all buried in a WhatsApp group, with no record anywhere.

Before

Accounts in Excel

How much advance came in, what balance is pending — you open the sheet every single time.

Before

Slow reply, lost booking

An enquiry comes in and you reply two hours later. By then the client has gone to another studio.

Before

“When will the photos be ready?”

Clients ask five times a day. Nobody knows which stage the edit is at.

Photo Sathi brings all of it into one place. So your time goes behind the camera, not on the phone.

How it works

Three steps. Every event.

01

Capture

Enquiries land on your dashboard instantly. The lead source is tracked and a quotation is ready to send right away.

02

Manage

Bookings, crew allotment, event schedule, payments and editing — all inside a single project.

03

Deliver

Photo selection, album approval, printing and dispatch — with an automatic WhatsApp update at every step.

13 modules. One dashboard.

Everything you need
to run your studio.
