For design studios

Made for the business of design.

For studios of five to a hundred people who care about the craft and need the numbers to hold up. Just as usable for one designer working alone.

Roles

Everyone starts where their work is

The same workspace opens differently for each role, and people see only what their role allows.

  • Designers

    Start on Today

    Their timer, recent work, the week’s bookings, any missing time and anything waiting for them. No finance dashboard, no budget they cannot act on.

  • Project leads

    Start on their projects

    Scope and revision rounds, approvals for their projects, the plan for their team, and each project’s health with its reasons.

  • Owners

    Start on reports

    Margin, capacity and cash across the studio, with every figure tracing back to the projects and records behind it.

  • Finance

    Start on invoices

    What is ready to bill, what is outstanding and what has actually been paid, kept as separate numbers.

In practice

One project, from the weekly plan to payment

Kite brand identity at Northline Studio, the fictional studio you can explore yourself. The figures are the sample’s own.

  1. Monday

    The plan meets the week

    Priya sees Tom booked past his capacity. Moving 30h of motion work to Sam, a freelance specialist, fixes the week and lowers Kite’s forecast cost before anything is committed.

  2. Wednesday

    A fourth round of the logo

    The logo system goes past its three included rounds. Priya prices the new icon work as CR-002: $10,000 and 45h. Even accepted, the margin would be 37.07%, and the project says so.

  3. Friday

    Weeks submitted, time approved

    Designers send their weeks. Each project’s hours go to its lead, who approves or returns them with a comment. Approved time locks.

  4. Month end

    A milestone becomes an invoice

    The $30,000 Identity approved milestone is invoiced and the deposit from signing is applied, leaving $15,000 to collect.

Clients are guests, not seats

Invite clients to see what you choose to share: client-facing projects, estimates, change requests and their own invoices. They never see internal costs, margins or internal comments, and they never use a paid seat. The full project portal is part of Studio and Scale.

Working alone works too

A one-person studio needs one seat. The timer, projects, budgets, invoices and online payments work the same way they do for a team, and you can grow into approvals and planning later.

Questions

Is it right for your studio?

Is it only for design studios?
It is built around design work: deliverables with revision rounds, change requests, retainers and creative roles. Consultancies and agencies with a similar way of working fit the same model.
What size of studio is it for?
Studios of roughly five to a hundred people, and individual designers. Roles, approvals and planning grow with the team, and each person only sees what their role needs.
Do we have to change how we work?
No. Start with time and projects, then add budgets, planning and invoicing when they help. Plans differ in how much of the workflow they cover, so you can begin small.
Can we try it before deciding?
Yes. 14-day trial of Studio. No card required. You can also explore the sample studio, which is fictional and never sends email or takes payments.
How do we move from our current tool?
Import clients, projects, people, time and expenses from CSV files. Read how a move from Harvest works.
