From first email to paid booking, in one link.
JPX Desk is the business desk for photo and video studios. It reads your inbox, builds the brief, holds the date, drafts the proposal and collects the payment. Nothing reaches a client until you say yes.

One link does the work of ten emails.
A client writes in. JPX Desk keeps the thread, builds the brief, holds the date and sends one short link where they pick a day, sign and pay. Every step is something you can see, edit or stop.

Proposal
Draft from the emailEverything a studio runs on. Nothing it doesn't.
Eight parts, one set of data. A signed proposal books the income, puts the days on your calendar and opens the client record. You never type the same thing twice.
Inquiries
Every lead in one list, ordered by who is waiting. A reply timer turns red after 24 hours.
Proposals
Paste the client's email. A draft comes back with the line items checked against the price.
Calendar
Bookings, holds and deliverables on one month, synced with your iCloud calendar.
Finance
Every payment lands on its job. Income by source, expenses, invoices. No forecasts.
All your studio mailboxes in one place. Replies go out in the client's own thread.
Clients and crew
One record per client. A roster of the people you hire, with rates and job margins.
Outreach
Lead lists, timed sequences and a cold-email queue you approve, sent at human times.
Notifications
Payments, opens and new inquiries on your phone. A short summary every morning at 8.
Runs inside the AI you already talk to.
JPX Desk plugs into Claude Duet, ChatGPT Dots and Grok Bot with the same 72 tools, the same house rules and the same approvals.
A chief of staff for the studio. It keeps a JPX Desk channel, drafts replies and proposals as tasks for you to review, and nudges you about late balances and unopened proposals.
An agent that works the desk on a schedule. A Dot can sweep new inquiries every morning, draft the replies and ask you before anything goes out.
Add JPX Desk to Grok as a custom MCP server. The same 72 tools, the same house rules and the same approvals, from Grok.
Your AI does the typing. You make the calls.
Ask Claude Duet, a ChatGPT Dot or Grok Bot and run the studio from a conversation. It reads the inquiry, drafts the proposal under your house rules and asks before anything leaves.
- Suggest and draft. Every send, payment request and status change waits for your yes.
- House rules first. Your terms, clauses and email habits are read before any draft.
- No extra AI bill. The AI you connect writes the proposal on the same checks as the app.

Your studio's page. Never the software.
The client opens one link on their phone. Your name and logo on top, your proposal in your theme, then a date to pick, a place to sign and a way to pay. No login, no app, no back and forth.
- Pick a date when you offer more than one
- Sign by typing or drawing, with a full audit trail
- Pay by card or Apple Pay through Stripe, or by bank transfer
- Download the signed PDF, receipt and invoice. Add the shoot to their calendar
Operational, not decorative.
Other studio tools ask you to design forms, pipelines and portals before you book a single job. JPX Desk ships with the workflow a busy studio already uses, and gets out of the way.
You approve every step
The app and the AI suggest and draft. A person says yes before anything reaches a client, moves a date or asks for money.
Defaults over settings
Full payment upfront, terms in your favor, crew kept internal. Sensible out of the box, changeable per proposal when you agree to it.
Manual is always first class
Automation pre-fills. It never locks you out. Cash, Zelle or a check from a client goes in by hand in two taps.
Built by a working studio in New York, used on every booking, shaped by the jobs that went sideways.
