Get started

1. Set your retainer plans. Hours and fee for each plan.
2. Add your clients. Retainer, hours, and end date.
3. Log time as you work. The month's hours fill up.

Playbook. The first thing in the project walks you through every step and ticks them off as you go. Delete it once you're done.

Sign-in. Your team signs in to Retainers with a one-time code sent to their email; a manager gives each person a role. Project collaborators who sign in with Teable are managers. Members see every client's hours and log their own time; managers also see fees, send proposals, and manage clients, plans and the team. The Lead form is a Teable form you can share with anyone.

Comes with sample data for a made-up design agency, Studio Halden. Every sample email is on example.com, so the automations send nothing to sample clients.
