Freelancers — what's the one tool you wish existed for managing clients?
I've been freelancing and working with freelancers for years, and client management is still a mess for most of us. We end up juggling email, Google Drive, Slack, a separate invoicing tool, maybe a contract app, and still get the "hey, where's my file?" message every week.
I've been building a client portal specifically for freelancers — one place where your clients log in and see their projects, pay invoices, sign contracts, download files, and message you. No more chasing.
Before I launch it here on Product Hunt, I wanted to ask:
What's the biggest time sink in how you currently manage clients?
If you use HoneyBook, Dubsado, or something similar — what do you love and what drives you crazy?
Would you actually give clients a login to a portal, or does that feel like too much friction?
Genuinely looking for honest input, not validation. If the idea is wrong, I'd rather know now.
For context: I'm a solo founder based in Spain, building with Next.js + Supabase + Stripe. The product is called Frelvo and I'm planning to launch it here soon.
