Urbo Labs launches Tattoon app: AI-powered tattoo design tool for virtual "try-on"

A San Francisco-based AI startup, has launched Tattoon, an innovative app that allows users to “fit” tattoos onto their own bodies with just a tap. The app’s mission is to bridge the gap between art, tattoo artists, and aspiring tattoo enthusiasts by enabling people to experiment with different tattoo designs on their body photos.

Designed to inspire and assist users in making informed decisions about future tattoos, Tattoon leverages advanced AI algorithms to provide a realistic and immersive tattoo simulation experience. Users can explore a wide variety of tattoo styles and designs, giving them the freedom to "try on" tattoos before committing to the real thing.

Key features of Tattoon:

  • High-fidelity application: tattoos appear exactly as they do in the original design, preserving intricate details.
  • 3D effects: tattoos are rendered three-dimensionally, accounting for the body's natural contours.
  • Realistic placement: the app considers the body's perspective in the photo for accurate tattoo placement.
  • Aging effects: users can apply vintage or aged appearances to tattoos for a more authentic look.
  • Animated tattoos: offers the option to apply animated tattoos in various styles.
  • Extensive library: includes more than 1,000 unique sketches and styles from a network of tattoo artists.

Tattoon aims to achieve three primary goals:

  1. Empowering self-expression: the app supports individuals who are uncertain about getting a tattoo, allowing them to explore different designs and find the one that best represents their personality and individuality.
  2. Time-saving for artists: by providing a digital platform for trying out different tattoo styles, Tattoon reduces the time tattoo artists spend on selecting designs for clients.
  3. Cost-efficiency for clients: users can better understand their preferences before visiting a tattoo studio, potentially saving on consultation costs.

Tattoon has already partnered with over 300 renowned tattoo artists who offer their original designs through the app. Artists can create custom profiles showcasing their sketches, allowing users to experiment with the latest tattoo trends.

"Tattoon is like Photoshop, but with just one click", said renowned tattoo artist Abel Miranda, praising the app's simplicity and effectiveness.
