View trailFeatures
Everything a client engagement needs. Nothing it doesn't.
Replace the patchwork of docs, chat threads, and email attachments with one place your team and your clients actually share.
Project pipelines
Board, list, and timeline views that stay in sync, so a status change is never lost between tools.
Shared workrooms
Give every engagement its own room: files, decisions, and updates in one address your client can bookmark.
Approvals in a thread
Send one link, collect comments in context, and record the final decision where the work lives.
A clean handoff trail
Every version, file, and note is timestamped, so closing out a project takes minutes instead of an afternoon.
Permissions you can explain
Teammates, contractors, and clients each see a view you can describe in a single sentence.
Automations without setup calls
Reusable templates and lightweight rules handle the repetitive parts of kickoff, review, and wrap-up.
Inside the workspace
Everything in view, nothing in the way.
A workspace that reads like a project brief, not an admin panel — built for the moment a client asks, “where are we on this?”
- One link per project
- Clients open a branded page with only the files, milestones, and decisions that belong to them.
- Decisions stay attached
- Approvals sit next to the work they cover, with the reviewer, timestamp, and version recorded.
- Versions without the folder maze
- Upload a new round and the history stays intact — no more final-final-v3 in a shared drive.
- Roles in plain language
- Owner, contributor, reviewer, guest. Pick one, see the preview, and know exactly what they see.

FAQ
Questions, answered plainly.
How long does setup take?
Most teams open their first space in an afternoon: choose a template, bring in your milestones, and invite the client when you're ready.
Can clients take part without an account?
Yes. Client links open a focused view where they can review files and leave comments — no password, no onboarding call.
What's included in the trial?
Everything in the plan you choose, for 14 days, with no card required. Your workspace and content stay if you upgrade.
Can we change plans later?
Any time. Upgrades apply immediately and downgrades take effect at the next billing date, with the difference credited.
Do you support SSO and provisioning?
SAML SSO and directory sync are available on the Agency plan. Contact us for deployment and data-residency details.
Do you offer annual billing?
Yes — annual billing is available on every plan and includes two months at no additional cost.
