Client Portals

Give your customers a real self-service experience — branded with your name, on your URL — so the support calls stop, the documents stay organized, and the payments flow without a human in the loop.

The cost of not having a real portal

Phone-tag with customers eating support hours

Customers call to ask the same five questions over and over: where's my order, when's the next service, can I get a copy of my invoice, is my payment on file, when does my contract renew. Every call is a ten-minute interruption to someone on your team, and the answer is always already in your system.

Document hand-off via email and Dropbox

Contracts get emailed back and forth. Signed PDFs get uploaded to a folder somebody finds eventually. Customers ask for a copy of last year's agreement and someone has to dig through three inboxes to find it. Nothing is versioned, nothing is searchable, and security is whatever the customer's IT person decides.

Status questions you answer manually every day

Customers want to know where their project, order, ticket, or shipment stands. Your team checks an internal system, types a reply, sends an email. Multiply by every customer, every week, and you have a full-time job that produces no new revenue.

No way to bill, sign, or onboard digitally

New customers fill out a paper or PDF form. Payment is by check or a Stripe link you send manually. Onboarding involves a kickoff email with seven attachments. Each step is a friction point where deals stall, payments slip, or customers churn before they ever go live.

What We Build

A portal your customers will actually use

Account dashboards your customers actually log into

A real home screen for every customer — their account info, current status, upcoming work, recent invoices, and the actions they can take. Designed so they answer their own questions instead of calling yours.

Document signing, uploads, and storage

Customers sign agreements in-browser. Upload required documents from a phone camera. Download every signed contract, statement, or compliance form from one place. Versioned, audited, and permission-aware.

Payments and recurring billing

One-time payments, card-on-file, autopay, recurring subscriptions, invoices with payment links — all built on Stripe and tied to your customers' accounts. Failed payments retry automatically with the customer in the loop.

Real-time status tracking on jobs, orders, or projects

Customers see exactly where things stand without asking. Status pipelines, milestone progress, ETAs, blockers — pulled live from your internal system so the customer view and the ops view never drift apart.

Branded login screens — your name, your URL

portal.yourcompany.com, your logo, your colors, your brand voice. Customers experience your portal as your software, not a white-labeled SaaS product. Email notifications come from your domain, not ours.

Notifications that meet customers where they are

Email, SMS, and in-app notifications for status changes, payment receipts, document requests, and renewals. Customers opt in to the channels they want — and stop calling for the updates they now get automatically.

What’s included at the Studio tier

A full product team, on monthly retainer

Studio is the right fit for almost every client-portal engagement. Two concurrent tracks, two deploys a week, and a dedicated PM — so the customer-facing app, the internal admin, and the integrations all move at once.

Two production deploys per week
Up to two concurrent initiatives
Dedicated PM (John) and senior dev lead
Shared Slack channel, 4-hour response in business hours
Monthly roadmap planning, quarterly business review
Production monitoring + minor feature requests included

Recommended Tier

Most client-portal clients land on Studio

A real client portal is always two apps that have to stay in sync: the customer-facing one and the internal admin where your team works. Studio’s two-initiative cap is built for exactly this — we ship the portal and the admin in parallel, with the same code, the same data model, and the same QA pass.

Foundry ($5,000/mo) can ship a v1 portal if you already have an internal admin and just need the customer-facing layer. Atelier ($10,000/mo) is the right tier if you’re rolling the portal out to a large existing customer base and need on-call SRE coverage during the migration.
