Soloist

The calm HQ for client work, from proposal to paid.

Best for: Freelancers and studios of one who want one calm place to run clients from proposal to paid.

Run every client from proposal to paid, in one place.

Overview

Soloist is built for the person doing the work and the chasing: proposals, projects, deliverable approvals, and invoices in one calm place, plus a client portal that turns 'where are we?' into a link. A warm-cream-and-indigo, Newsreader palette that reads professional but personal, a client HQ that surfaces what needs you first, a project detail page, and a client-facing portal. The signature is a proposal-to-paid engagement timeline — one client's whole engagement mapped as a status line. Every number and stage is config-driven, so making the demo engagement yours is a quick edit.
