One home for the project.
Initial data, responsibilities, tasks, meeting minutes and client correspondence remain connected from kickoff to handover.
Run the studio from one system.
A connected operating system for the work that happens around design: leads, projects, time, invoices and cash—kept in one clear loop.
Join the list ↗Built for solo practices and small studios. Runs in Notion.
From first enquiry to final payment.
Enquiry→Client→Project→Hours→Invoice→Cash
Every record connects to the next. A lead becomes a client, a client becomes a project, project time becomes labour cost, and paid invoices update cashflow. The dashboard gives the studio head the honest picture without rebuilding it in a spreadsheet.
Four connected workspaces.
Turn an enquiry into work.
Capture leads, move them through the pipeline, and keep the relationship visible after the proposal is sent.
See the money clearly.
Company cashflow, project finance and outstanding invoices speak to each other instead of living in separate files.
Make the team part of the operating picture.
Keep staff, consultants, departments and hiring needs in view as the studio grows.

Yes. The structure is designed as a working foundation; names, views and visual details can be adapted to your studio.
