Freelancers Lose Thousands to Client Disputes
Without proper documentation, you're vulnerable to disputes that cost you time, money, and reputation.
"You delivered this late"
Client withholds payment despite on-time delivery
"I never approved that"
You redo work for free because you can't prove approval
"That wasn't in scope"
Scope creep kills your profit margin

Frequently Asked Questions
Do clients need to sign up?
No. Clients only click a secure link to view your timeline or respond to approval requests. No account required.
Can I edit or delete entries after I log them?
No. All proof entries and scope changes are permanently locked with system-generated timestamps. This ensures your evidence is credible during disputes.
How does the Client Progress Portal work?
You share a secure link with your client from Day 1. They see a live, read-only view of your project timeline, scope, and milestones. Every visit is tracked with timestamps.
What if a client says they never received my approval request?
The system tracks when the approval request was sent, when the client viewed it, and when they responded (or didn't). You have timestamped proof of everything.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Starter plan is free forever for 1 active project with up to 25 proof entries, 5 scope entries, and 3 approval requests.
