Tattoodo launched in 2013, and have raised more than $15m USD from some of the most prominent Venture firms in the world, to become the largest community for the Global tattoo industry. We are the #1 global destination for tattoo collectors, artists, and shops, offering original and curated content, a dedicated community, and the exclusive feature of being able to book tattoo appointments around the world. We are creating a two-sided marketplace and introducing the first digital booking platform for the tattoo industry.
An indicator that Tattoodo is onto something comes from the important people backing us, involving both Christian Stadil, Daniel Agger, Jimmy Maymann and Tom Ryan from Threadless. The platform has staff writers all around the world and is also striving for an international atmosphere, with a New York office. The office culture is casual: wearing sneakers and listening to loud old-school hip hop is just fine. Striving to be a fun, creative and ambitious place, the employees of Tattoodo are qualified people. On regular Friday events, you learn both about tattoo lifestyle and art. The path from idea to action is short, and while people aren’t as tattooed as you might imagine, everyone holds a huge interest in the culture. The co-founder Ami James, known from Miami Ink, jumped on a plane right away when he heard about the Tattoodo idea. Since then we’ve come a long way: Our social following has grown to more than 20 million followers across its platforms, with record monthly reach of 200 million users and 2 billion impressions.
