Everything Projectous does
One place for the work, the money and the conversation, built for teams carrying several clients at once.
Running the work
Built for a team carrying several clients at once, so seeing across all of them is the default rather than a view you assemble.
- My Tasks
- One list of everything you owe, across every client, with the stale and blocked work at the top.
- Day planner
- Drag the next few hours onto a day. Your calendar sits alongside it.
- Statuses per project
- Each project names its own stages, and every stage says whose turn it is and what happens next.
- One priority system
- The same priorities everywhere, so urgent means the same thing in every project.
- Job board
- Work nobody is assigned to, which people claim rather than wait to be given.
- Commitments
- A promise someone made, captured where it was made and tracked to the day it is due.
- Standup
- What each person finished, what they are on, and where they are stuck.
- Needs review
- Work that is finished but not yet checked, kept out of everyone else's list.
- Offerings
- The services you sell, with their price and the tasks that come with them.
- Acronyms
- A short code per client and project, so you can type a timer, task or search without hunting through a list.
Work arrives from anywhere
Six ways for something to become a task without anyone retyping it, and replies go back the way they came. This is the part that replaces a help desk.
- Copy Projectous on a client email and it becomes a task, with the client attached.
- Replies by email
- Answer from the task and it lands in their inbox. Their reply comes back into the same thread.
- Web form
- A form on your site that files a task.
- WordPress
- The plugin does the same from a WordPress site.
- Webhooks
- Anything that can post a request can open a task.
- Zapier
- For the tools that cannot.
- API
- For everything else.
Money
The hours, the contract and the invoice are the same records as the work, so nothing is exported and nothing is retyped.
- Time tracking
- A timer against the task you are on, on every plan.
- Timer review
- Check and tidy the week's hours before any of it reaches an invoice.
- Invoices from real hours
- The reviewed time becomes the lines. Edit them on the invoice itself.
- Four kinds of contract
- Hourly, fixed price, at cost and retainer, each billing the way it was sold.
- Rates
- Per client, per project or per person, with the right one chosen for you.
- Profitability
- What a project earned against what you quoted, while the work is still running.
- Offerings profitability
- Which of the things you sell actually make money.
- Expenses
- Attributed to the client they belong to.
- Worker payouts
- What each person is owed for the work they did.
- Payable and receivable
- What is owed to you and what you owe.
- QuickBooks
- Invoices go across and payments come back, so the books stay where your accountant works.
- Coinbase
- Take payment in crypto if a client wants to.
Clients
A client is a participant rather than an audience, without you building them a separate place to be.
- Client access
- They see their own tasks and load their own invoices. Nothing to set up per person.
- Two sides to every task
- An internal thread and a client-facing one, on the same piece of work.
- Guests
- Whoever you say. No cap, no cost, and their email address does not decide it.
- Linked companies
- Bring another agency onto a client's projects, and the billing chain follows.
- CRM
- Leads, follow-up sequences that send themselves, and a reply that stops the sequence.
Chat
Not channels bolted on, and not comments under a task. Both, plus the places a conversation actually happens.
- Project rooms
- A room per project, for the running conversation.
- Direct messages
- Between people, and between companies you work with.
- Task threads
- On the work itself, split into your side and the client's.
- Invoice chat
- Questions about a bill, on the bill.
- Timer chat
- Notes against the hours, where the hours are.
- On your phone
- The same conversations in the mobile app.
Passwords and access
Client credentials kept where the work is, without us being able to read them.
- Vault
- Locked on your device before it reaches us. We never hold the key.
- In the project
- The credentials for a client's systems live with their work.
- Browser extension
- Fills the login for you.
- On your phone
- The vault is in the mobile app.
- API tokens
- Named tokens you can revoke, so an integration never uses your password.
For developers
If your team writes software, the work and the code stay close together.
- Command line
- Install @projectous/pt and work with tasks, timers and comments from a terminal.
- API
- The same operations over HTTP, with revocable tokens.
- Git from a task
- Create the branch, commit and open the pull request from the desktop app, named after the task.
- Agent runner
- Hand a task to Claude Code and get a pull request back for review.
- MCP server
- Point Claude or another AI client at your own Projectous data, read-only, using a token you can revoke.
- Webhooks
- Post from CI, a monitor or anything else, and it becomes a task.
Everywhere you work
The same account, on whatever you happen to have open.
- Web
- Any browser.
- Mac and Windows
- A desktop app.
- iPhone and Android
- Chat, tasks, the timer and the vault.
- Bring what you have
- Import from Asana, ClickUp, monday, Trello, Jira, Notion, Linear or a spreadsheet.
Some of this depends on your plan. The pricing table is the place that says which.
