Your Craft,
Fully Managed

Free, forever. No credit card. Every tool your craft needs, in one place.

The problem

Selling shouldn't cost this much

Most platforms stack fees on top of fees. By the time you account for everything, you're giving away 10-20% of every sale.

How fees stack up on other platforms

Platform commission6.5%
Listing fees ($0.20 per item, renewed every 4 months)+$0.20/item
Payment processing markup+3-3.5%
Mandatory advertising cut on referred sales+12-15%
Per-transaction flat fee+$0.30/sale
Total you lose per $100 sale~$0+
What's even worse

They control your payouts

Your money sits in their account. They decide when you get paid and can hold funds without explanation.

They own your customers

No customer emails, no direct relationships. Your buyers are their buyers. You can't market to your own audience.

Fees go up, never down

VC-funded platforms raise prices once you're locked in. They answer to investors, not to the makers on their platform.

Built as the remedy

We exist because this industry is broken

Artysan wasn't born in a boardroom. It was born from watching talented makers get squeezed by platforms that profit from their work while giving back as little as possible.

Self-funded, maker-first

No VC money. No investor pressure to raise prices. We answer to makers, not shareholders. Our margins stay thin because that’s the whole point.

The complete system

Not just a marketplace. Recipes, production, inventory, orders, event POS, live selling, and custom orders — all in one place. No stitching five subscriptions together.

New technology, lower prices

Modern AI and infrastructure mean we don’t need 1,000 engineers and the margins to pay them. That’s how we undercut legacy platforms on price while giving you more features.

Costs include infrastructure (hosting, CDN, storage), payment processing overhead, fraud prevention, and support. Live sales costs include streaming infrastructure and real-time processing. We keep thin margins on purpose - enough to sustain and improve the platform, not to maximize extraction.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Your craft's full management platform - recipes, calculators, production, inventory, orders, and imports - is free, with no expiration and no credit card. It's a public good for makers, and it stays that way.

Free gives you the complete management platform for your craft. Business is the tier that brings everything together - every craft you make unified into one business, with team members, cross-craft financials and reports, and deeper compliance tools. If you run a single craft, Free is genuinely all you need.

We'll announce Business pricing when it launches. The free platform isn't going anywhere - Business is an add-on for makers running several crafts as one business, never a paywall on the tools you already have.

Soap, candles, bath & body, and fragrance are first, each with its own calculators, production stages, and starter recipes. More crafts follow - the platform is built as a 75-craft system, and we're bringing them live in waves.

100%. Every recipe, batch, order, and customer record is yours. You can export everything at any time. We'll never sell your data or use it to compete with you.

Yes - bring recipes and inventory in from a spreadsheet, or import your product catalog from Etsy. It's an import, not a lock-in: your data stays yours and you can take it back out anytime.

Etsy is a storefront; a spreadsheet is a blank page. Artysan is a real management system built for how makers actually work - craft-specific calculators (lye, wick sizing, HLB), production boards with your craft's real stages, inventory that deducts as you batch, and orders that read back into your finances. All free.
