Welcome to co-muse
Create your studio to start reading designs and pricing them on your rates. We'll verify your email, then you're in — no other setup.
Your studio is live. This is your studio code — the key to this account. Save it to sign in on another device. We won't show it in full again.
co-muse reads the design with AI, but the price comes from your numbers. Set them once now — you can fine-tune anything later under Studio rates.
As you log the real hours each job took (in co-muse memory), it learns your pace and tightens every future quote — so the rate above is just your starting point, not a guess you're stuck with.
You're set up. Here's the whole loop — it takes about a minute per design:
Drop the sketch. Click, paste, or drag the design image into The design — or pull it straight from a client email via Email intake.
Read it. Hit Read design and co-muse scores every factor — size, complexity, density, saturation, line weight, colour — then prices it on the rate you just set.
Log the hours. After the job, enter the real chair time under co-muse memory. Every logged job makes the next quote sharper.

Admin · training & feedback
How co-muse trains. The read comes from Claude; the price comes from your rates. What learns is the layer between — a time-factor fitted to your real pace. It recalibrates automatically the moment a real outcome arrives: you (or the Hermes agent) log the hours a job actually took, or correct a read. The one thing it can't invent is the outcome itself — that signal is yours. Every logged job tightens the next quote.
Training studio — seed the model from your own past work
Log 20–30 past designs with what they actually took. Each one instantly tunes your time-factor, so the tool prices like you from day one — no waiting for live jobs. Don't have an image? Just tick the design's traits below from memory.
