The client portal and studio workspace for design agencies
Run your studio like an agency.
Proposals, projects, files, messages, time, invoices and card payments in one studio workspace, with a client portal in your brand.
Private beta, free for design studios. Claude and ChatGPT connector in development.
JT Studio, a web design studio in Chandler, Arizona, runs its client work on Tayvo.
Dashboard
Screens show the real Tayvo app with demo data.
- Card payments through Stripe
- Sign in with a link or code
- Your domain or name.tayvo.app
- No lead limits on any plan
Five apps for one client job.
Proposals go out from one app. Invoices from another. Files sit in a shared drive. Tasks live on a board. Client messages get lost in email.
Then the client asks which file is final, or where the invoice went. You check three apps to answer one email.
Agency and studio owners who review these tools on G2, Capterra and Trustpilot name two more problems. The client portal doesn't look like their brand. And the price climbs while the feature they need moves to a higher plan.
Run every client job from your own address.
Your team signs in to the studio. Your clients sign in to their portal. Both sit at name.tayvo.app or on your own domain.
The studio
Projects, tasks, proposals, invoices, time and messages for every client.
The portal
Their projects, files, messages, proposals to sign and invoices to pay.
On your own domain, the studio and the portal sit at studio. and portal. addresses, like studio.yourstudio.com and portal.yourstudio.com.
Your colors on the studio and the portal.
Set 4 colors once: background, buttons, button text and text. Tayvo applies the set to your workspace and every client portal.
- Upload your logo and Tayvo suggests color sets from the logo.
- Tayvo checks contrast and blocks color sets clients can't read.
- Your studio name, logo and app icon show in place of Tayvo's.
Forest and Plum are demo color sets. Your own colors go here.
See every setting for your colors on the studio and the portal.
Proposal to paid invoice, on one project.
The proposal, the work, the hours and the invoice stay on one project. Your client sees the same project in the portal.
Every tile below is a live feature: proposals clients sign online, time on the project, and invoices and Stripe card payments.
What your studio and your clients each get.
Invoices you can still edit
Fix a line, an amount or a date any time until the client pays.
Hours billed to the invoice
Log time on the project, then bill the entries you pick in one go.
Files and messages per project
Each file and message sits on the project the client already sees.
Proposals clients sign online
Add optional services. Clients tick the ones they want and sign.
Card payments through Stripe
Clients pay by card from the invoice, on a laptop or a phone.
A task board clients can read
Clients see every task as Pending, Progress, Review or Done.
The same studio, in dark mode.
Tayvo has a light theme and a dark theme, for your studio and for the client portal.
