FAQ

How is it calculated?

Clients × exchanges per week × minutes per exchange × 4.33 weeks, divided by 60, gives hours per month. Multiplied by your hourly rate, that gives the cost.

Where does the avoidable share come from?

It is an assumption you set yourself: the share of exchanges that disappear once your client sees progress, files and approvals in one place. Use the number that feels right to you.

Are my numbers saved?

No. The calculation runs in your browser and nothing is sent.

What if your client found everything in one place?

Milestones, files, approvals and chat in a portal under your logo. 7-day trial.
