SMAT Designs is an independent design and software studio founded by Scott Manthey and Ariel Tourner in Tempe, Arizona. We create practical tools for sellers and businesses alongside production-ready creative work.
From Amazon seller workflows and AI-assisted Mac software to ecommerce websites, packaging, and apparel: we build, test, and improve products with direct operational experience.
SMAT builds original software and custom integrations for ecommerce operators, product teams, and independent businesses. Our work spans Amazon seller workflows, desktop applications, APIs, workflow automation, and testing systems. The same studio also offers established brand and production design services.
Seller-focused software developed from firsthand experience managing listings, SKU and ASIN identity, inventory discrepancies, fees, and operational evidence across Amazon workflows. Public seller connections require Amazon authorization and approval.

We work across consumer products, ecommerce, custom software, seller operations, fashion, and packaging. Founded in 2014, our studio combines practical operational experience with creative production and engineering.
Timelines are scoped individually. Simple design deliverables may take weeks; software projects vary with requirements, security, third-party approvals, testing, and deployment dependencies. We agree on milestones before work begins.
We prepare production files with the relevant manufacturer specifications and review requirements before delivery. Final acceptance depends on the manufacturer, materials and applicable rules; no acceptance guarantee is implied.
We design packaging against the specifications and jurisdictional requirements provided for a project. Clients and qualified regulatory professionals remain responsible for final legal and compliance review.
Technical specifications, measurements, material requirements and production instructions can be included when those deliverables are within the agreed scope.
Yes. Depending on scope, we build storefronts, product pages, integrations, checkout workflows and operational tooling. Performance is measured after launch and business outcomes are not guaranteed.
Custom software, design and engineering are quoted by project after scope review. For existing packaging work, packages have historically started around $4,000 per SKU; final quotes depend on deliverables. EzSeller subscription tiers and their availability are detailed on our Software page.
These examples describe our own projects, not third-party testimonials or endorsements. Client quotes and performance metrics are only published after authorization and verification.
We operate multiple consumer brands and have developed inventory, listing identity, reconciliation and seller workflow tooling informed by those operations.
