Tools for sharing client project updates and sending invoices

What fits

Atriumstrong · 90

Atrium is built as a client portal for agencies and freelancers, meant to replace shared drives, spreadsheets, and email threads with a single branded place clients can use to see what’s happening. It also includes invoicing with Stripe payments, so the same system can cover both update sharing and invoice sending in one workflow.

Best for: Freelancers who want a single client-facing portal for project updates plus built-in invoicing (not spreadsheets or scattered emails).

It directly addresses invoicing by letting you create invoices, email them to clients, and track payment status, but it doesn’t provide the client-facing updates portal described in your must-haves.
