Your clients always know how many hours are left.
Clients who always know where their hours stand don't go looking for someone else. Track your time against each client's hour bank, give every client a live page with your name on it, and update them before the hours run out, not after.
- A branded page for every client
- Updates sent before the hours run out
- Free while in early access. No card needed.

Plenty left. That is 26h 30m of your 40h used.
Acquiring clients is expensive.
Retaining them is easy.

Clients rarely leave over the work. They leave over surprises. Cliqly takes the surprises out of buying your hours.
- No surprise invoicesClients watch the hours go down all month, so the bill matches what they expected.
- No awkward silenceAn update goes out at the milestones you choose, even in a week when you forgot to write.
- No looking smallA page with your name and colour on it makes a one-person business look like a studio.
Track against the bank, not a blank timesheet
Start the timer with one click or Space. While it runs you see the client's hours going down, so you know you're at the limit before you pass it.

One link per client, showing only what you choose
Each client gets a page with your name on it: hours left, what you worked on, and when the hours reset. You decide which parts they see, and you can turn the link off at any time.
- Hours left
- What you worked on
- Rates and amounts
Parts you turn off never reach the client's browser.
Updates go out before it's a problem
When a project reaches a milestone you set, like 75% used, Cliqly writes the email for you. Review it in your Inbox, or let it send on its own.
Website retainer: 10h left this month
Hi Dana, A quick update on the Website retainer. We've used 30h of this month's 40h, so 10h remain until the hours reset on November 1.
Works the way you sell your hours
Every project is an hour bank. Pick the kind that matches your agreement.
- Monthly or weekly retainer
- A set number of hours each period. Unused hours reset, or roll over if you agreed they would.
- One-time block
- A pack of hours used until it runs out, with an optional expiry date.
- No limit
- Open-ended work. Track it the same way and show the client what was done.
Keep the clients you already won.
Set up your first client and hour bank in a minute. They'll notice the difference the first time they open their link.
