What our ambassadors are saying

From teachers and studio owners to local potters, we are so grateful to everyone who helped shape ClayLab into a tool that truly serves the needs of the pottery community.
Sharon Virtue, artist and teacher

"ClayLab has been an invaluable resource for both my ceramic work and my teaching. I regularly share it with my students, who love using it to track their ceramic production. Thank you, ClayLab, this tool is just as essential as any in the studio!” ❤️

Carlie, writer and ceramic artist

"We regularly recommend the app to folks in our local studio, Black Hound Clay South, and people are always excited that it exists.
The ability to customize glazes, applications, and clay bodies is unmatched."

Larry Cohen, artist and board director

"The hardest part of ceramics is focus, and ClayLab takes care of the rest. It helps me find my strongest pieces, learn from my mistakes, and I love that it’s built by someone who truly loves ceramics, not by a faceless money-making scheme."

Artist, Board Director @thepottersstudio
Debi, ceramic artist

"ClayLab is PACKED with features, yet thoughtfully organized so you can record as much or as little information as you want without it feeling overwhelming. When I began selling my ceramics, it became invaluable for tracking what I had for sale and what I’d sold pieces for in the past."

Daniel, studio owner at Hickory Clay

"Managing a busy studio, I’ve seen how easy it is for pieces to get lost in the shuffle. I recommend ClayLab to all my students and members, it’s the best way to track work from wet clay to the final fire, ensuring nothing gets left behind on the drying racks."

"The two people behind ClayLab are truly what make this app special. Vickie and Lorenzo are constantly reaching out and asking for feedback to make it better. You can feel their genuine love for the craft in every single feature"

Started by 2 potters, shaped by the community.

Hi friends 👋
We’re Lorenzo and Vickie. Eight years ago, we kept losing track of our creations: how certain pieces were made, which glazes we used, and even where finished work ended up.

I (Lorenzo) began building a small tool to be the solution I always wished I had in the studio, and with the support of Vickie and a few friends along the way, that personal tool gradually grew into the project that could help others.

Today, we’re still the same tiny team. No investors and no big tech team. Just us, creating what matters to makers because we’re makers ourselves. We answer your emails, read every bit of feedback, and build new functionalities based on your suggestions, often with clay still drying on our hands. ClayLab is our labor of love, built for our community and continually shaped by your feedback.

ClayLab Pro is what supports our work. It keeps us independent, ensures the app remains completely ad-free, and funds the continuous development needed to keep the basic tools accessible to the entire ceramics community.

Thank you for being part of this journey! 🙏 ❤️

Potters of all levels love ClayLab

Game changer in tracking your work!

The app you didn’t know you needed as a potter

Very nice to be able to record your different pottery projects, to add the dates in order to know when the pieces would be ready to fire, to register the types of clay used, types of glazes, molds used, … I love it!

Perfect for experienced and beginner potters alike.

I went from making documents in my notes app, Google sheets, and Canva to having everything I needed in one place: the ClayLab app.
We regularly recommend the app to folks in our local studio and people are always excited that it exists. The ability to customize glazes, applications, and claybodies is unmatched.

I love ClayLab!

I’m a newbie potter and this app is fantastic for keeping track of my pieces. Amazing for my ADHD brain. I super appreciate how comprehensive the free version is and that it is ad-free! Feels like a continuation of the community feeling I get from pottery :) And as an added bonus, it gives me a way to obsess over my pottery and imagine future projects on the days in-between my weekly pottery class 😍 Thank you ClayLab!

Finally! Exactly what I needed!

As a beginner, I heard about this app at my studio, and it’s been a total game changer! The frequent updates are amazing, and the app just keeps improving. While the free version covers everything I need, I upgraded to Pro to support the awesome team behind this incredible app.
You rock!

A lifesaver for potters!

Such a useful and comprehensive tool for potters :) I love it!

Great organizer

This is a great app for keeping track of my projects! Since I fire my stuff in at a community studio, it’s not always easy to remember what I’v made and where it is in the firing/ glazing process. I feel up to date and my pottery is very organized. And when people ask me what glazes I’ve used, I just whip out this app and tell them!
