What you get: quote → contract → deliver → get paid

01

Quote

Build a quote from a template and send one link instead of emailing PDFs.

02

Contract

Turn an accepted quote into a contract. Your client signs online with a click; both sides keep a PDF copy.

03

Deliver

Upload the files to the client portal. Your client sees quotes, contracts, files and invoices in one place.

04

Get paid

Send an invoice with a payment link. Payment status writes back to the project.(Payment links — rolling out at launch.)

What [BRAND] does not do

No CRM or email pipelines. No tax or bookkeeping. No scheduling. No multi-seat teams (v1 is one user per account). No mobile app (responsive web only). No AI features. We leave those to the all-in-one tools — that's why [BRAND] costs $9/mo.

A client portal with your name on it

Your portal, your brand. Free plan shows a "Powered by [BRAND]" badge; Pro removes it and adds your logo, colors and domain.

How to switch

  1. Create a free account.

  2. Add your next client and send your first quote — most people are done in under 10 minutes.

  3. Share the portal link with your client.

There is no automatic import from Dubsado in v1: start your next client in [BRAND], then close the old account when current projects finish.
