The full business, connected
Every record links to the others. A client links to their projects, hours, invoices and outreach, so nothing lives in two places.
Ask Ash about your studio
Ash answers from your own projects, people and invoices, so you never paste anything in. It asks before it sends, deletes or takes payment.

Questions
What does it cost?
Plya is free to start, with every module and Ash. Studio has no limits and is $39/mo, or $99 every 3 months.
I've tried tools before and stopped using them.
Plya starts with one canvas and one card. Add records as you need them; nothing has to be set up first.
Does Ash train on my data?
No. Your studio is never used to train AI models. Ash's AI provider, Anthropic, processes what Ash needs only to answer you, and you can see and remove what Ash remembers in Settings.
Does Plya take a cut of my invoices?
On Studio, no. Clients pay into your own Stripe account, and you pay Stripe's processing fee and nothing else. On Basic, Plya keeps 2% of each invoice payment made online, on top of Stripe's fee. On a $5,000 commission, that's $100 on Basic and nothing on Studio.
