If you belong to more than a handful of Sanity organizations and projects, you already know the drill: `sanity.io/manage`, find the organization, find the project, open the Studio. Do that 10 times a day and it adds up to real, wasted time. *[Studiofront](https://studiofront.nuotsu.dev)* keeps that same list, every organization and project you have access to, one shortcut away in your macOS menu bar. Hit a shortcut key or two, hit enter, and you're in.

I initially built *Studiofront* for myself first. Being selected as a [Sanity Pioneer](https://typed.sanitypress.dev/blog/sanitypress-earns-a-sanity-pioneer-spot) put me deep into managing Studios across a growing list of client organizations, and jumping between them was eating real time: browser tabs, bookmarks, trying to remember which org a project lived under, copying project ids, and more. *Studiofront* started as a fix for that. And now, it’s turned into something worth sharing.

## Who this is for

This is for anyone managing more Studios than they can hold in their head: an agency juggling client organizations, a developer splitting time across personal and internal projects, a teammate who just wants Studio access to feel instant instead of a five-tab hunt. If your answer to "which Studios do I have access to" is "let me check," this is built for you.

## How it works

Setup is easy: connect your Sanity account, and you're ready to go.

What it actually does:

1. **Lives in your menu bar**, not a browser tab.
1. **Instant search across every org.** Start typing, hit enter. No need to remember which organization a Studio lives under.
1. **Pin your most-used Studios.** Keep daily projects one click away; everything else stays searchable but out of sight.
1. **See what changed before you switch.** One click opens recently edited documents, and live presence shows who's currently editing.
1. **Holds up at scale.** Five Studios or five hundred, search stays instant.

Studiofront doesn't replace your Studio. It opens it. Pick a project and you're in the real Studio, editing exactly as if you'd navigated there yourself.

## Give Studiofront a try. It's 100% free!

Studiofront requires macOS 26 or later. It's free and open source.

If you manage Shopify stores instead of (or alongside) Sanity Studios, I also built *[Storefront](https://storefront.nuotsu.dev?source=SanityPress)*, the same idea, but for switching between Shopify accounts.

## Building your own site fast?

This site, including the post you're reading, runs on SanityPress: an open-source Next.js and Sanity starter built for shipping real client work fast without losing control over design or content structure. If you're staring down a marketing site, a docs hub, or another deadline, it's worth a look.
