Claybook is the pottery companion that grows with you. From your first pinch pot to your hundredth piece off the wheel.
Learn, practice, log, and preview all in one place. No more scattered notes, forgotten glaze combos, or guessing clay weight and shrinkage.
Studio tools include a clay weight estimator, clay shrinkage calculator, and AI Surface Preview..
LEARN POTTERY, STEP BY STEP
Short theory lessons (5–7 min each) cover everything from studio safety to kiln firing. Each lesson ends with a quiz so you know what stuck. Topics unlock progressively, and the app adjusts to your skill level: beginner through advanced.
PRACTICE WITH REAL EXERCISES
Apply what you learn with hands-on challenges at your bench. Each exercise has a difficulty rating, space for notes, and photo slots so you can track improvement over time.
LOG EVERY PIECE YOU MAKE
Track crafts through their full lifecycle: idea, formed, trimmed, bisqued, glazed, finished. Attach photos, record time spent, link the clay body and surface you used, and add notes at every stage.
PREVIEW GLAZES BEFORE YOU FIRE
Take a photo of your unglazed piece and a glaze sample. Claybook shows you the result before the kiln does. No more surprises after a 12-hour firing cycle.
STUDIO REFERENCE LIBRARY
• Shapes: profiles for cylinders, bowls, mugs, vases and more
• Surfaces & glazes: types, application notes, and your own combinations
• Clay bodies: shrinkage, firing range, and density for common clays plus any you add
• Clay weight estimator: pick a shape and dimensions, get the weight
• Clay shrinkage calculator: convert wet and fired sizes for your clay body
