Where VSCO Workspace is great
Workspace grew out of Táve, a studio manager power users have loved for years.
- Automations. Deep, configurable workflows that send the right email, contract, or reminder at each stage.
- Texting. Two-way text messages with clients, plus text automations.
- Brands and team. Four brands and six users with VSCO One.
- A big bundle. VSCO One adds 200+ editing presets, AI editing, a portfolio website, delivery galleries with guest uploads, and business education.
Where Edit is different
VSCO One is good value if you’d use the whole bundle. Edit is for photographers who want proofing built in and would rather pay by the month.
- Proofing built in. No account needed to proof. Your client’s picks and their team’s Guest picks sit side by side, the Matched filter shows the shots everyone agrees on, and extra retouches are paid for right in the gallery (Studio and Agency).
- Month to month. Plans from $29 a month, billed monthly. No yearly commitment to get the business tools.
- A real client portal. On Studio and Agency, each client logs in to one place on your studio’s address with their galleries, contracts, invoices, delivered files, and messages. On Solo, everything goes by secure link.
- Built for business clients. PO numbers, NET terms, automatic late fees, ACH bank transfer, files that unlock when the invoice is paid, and on Studio and Agency, up to 15 people on one client account.
Switching
Don’t migrate. Just start.
Moving years of work is awful, so don’t. Leave your Workspace jobs where they are and run your next shoot through Edit.
- 1
Start free
Make your studio in a few minutes. No credit card.
- 2
Run one real shoot
Add the client, send the contract, deliver the gallery, and send the invoice, all from one project.
- 3
Decide with real data
If it feels better, book the next one in Edit too. Nothing you already have stops working.
“Proofing is where my clients spend the most time, so it couldn’t be a separate app. In Edit, the picks, the contract, and the invoice all live on the same project.”
Switching from VSCO Workspace
Is VSCO Workspace the same as Táve?
Yes. VSCO says Táve’s Studio Manager became VSCO Workspace, launched under the new name in August 2025.
Can I still buy VSCO Workspace on its own?
Not as a new customer. Since June 23, 2026, the full Workspace comes only with VSCO One, $499.99 a year, billed yearly. Existing subscribers can keep their plan, and there’s a free, limited version of Workspace.
Does VSCO Workspace have proofing?
VSCO’s own galleries are built for delivery, with guest uploads but no client picks. For proofing, Workspace links to ShootProof or Pic-Time. Edit has proofing built in on every plan.
Is Edit a good VSCO Workspace alternative?
If you want proofing built in and would rather pay monthly, yes. If you want very configurable automations, text messaging, several brands, or VSCO’s presets and portfolio site, VSCO One goes further.
Do I have to move my Workspace clients?
No. There’s nothing to migrate. Leave past jobs where they are and run your next shoot through Edit.
Try Edit on your next shoot.
Nothing to migrate. Run one real job through it, start to paid, and see how it feels.
No credit card required. 60 days free.
