My briefs
Freelancer hub portal
A freelancer client hub is where clients send a brief and follow each milestone of the work, and the freelancer keeps briefs, milestones and invoices in one place instead of three apps.

What is a freelancer hub portal?
A freelancer client hub is where clients send a brief and follow each milestone of the work, and the freelancer keeps briefs, milestones and invoices in one place instead of three apps. It follows the Client hubs pattern: one shared space per client: deliverables, documents, milestones. Pory generates it from a plain-English description, with a login for each role (client and freelancer) that shows only what that role should see, and flat pricing with unlimited clients.
What it does
New clients send a brief before the discovery call, not after
Briefs used to come as a LinkedIn message that said "quick one" and was never quick. In Pory the client says what they need, the deadline and the budget, and the brief lands as Received so you can quote or pass. You go into the first call already knowing the scope.
Forms to submit a recordDone by: Client
Clients see which milestone you're on without having to ask
Clients checked in by email because they couldn't see where the work was up to. Each milestone sits on the client's page with a due date and a status, from Not started to Done, and moves when you update it. You stop writing "just a quick update" emails between the actual work.
Status tracker for the submitterDone by: Client
Your home page counts invoices sent, overdue and waiting
Knowing who still owed you meant scrolling through sent mail and squinting at a banking app. Each invoice is a row with its client, amount, due date and status, and your home page counts how many are sent and how many have gone overdue. Chasing becomes a short list, not a guess.

Every client gets a private page for their brief and milestones
Keeping clients apart used to mean separate folders, separate emails and a careful eye on the CC line. Each client signs in to Pory and sees only their own brief and milestones. You run one hub for every client, and nobody sees who else you're writing for.

The parts every portal is built from
Pory generates a portal from these pieces and wires the permissions between them. The same parts run a grant round, a help desk, and a tenant portal — only the names on the pages change.
Collect
Forms
Signed-in or public, with typed fields and file uploads. A form files a record; it doesn't start an email thread.
Public pages
An application page, a notice board, an open directory — pages and forms anyone can use without signing in, on your domain.
Self sign-up
People create their own account and land in the role you chose for them.
File attachments
Upload and view files on the record they belong to — not in a folder named FINAL v2.
Decide
Approve / reject with a reason
Decision buttons for whoever may edit the status. Who decided, when, and why stays on the record.
Status tracker
“Where's my request?” answered as a progress bar on the submitter's own page.
Board by status
Cards in columns. Drag a record to move it along.
Checklists
Task lists ticked off per record, in its detail view, with progress — onboarding runs, inspections, opening duties.
Assign to a person
Name who a record is for and it lands on their list, and nobody else's.
Notes & scores
A reviewer's score, a coach's feedback, a clinician's note — kept on the record it belongs to, never lost in a thread.
Reminders by date
Renewals, expiries and overdue work, in an in-app inbox and by email.
Share
Tables
Search, filters, sorting, inline add and edit — the spreadsheet, minus the sharing accident.
People directory
Portraits, names, and roles from a table, shown only to the roles allowed to see them.
Calendar
Records on a month or week view, by date.
Gallery & image grid
Records as cards or photos.
Detail view with related items
Open a unit, a pet or a listing to see its details and everything tied to it — requests, visits, offers. Share it by link; edit, change the status or add a related item from there.
Notices & info pages
Check-in details, benefits, updates — a page for a role to read.
Counts, totals & averages
Live figures over the records a viewer is allowed to see.
Control
Who sees which records
Each person sees their own records, the ones assigned to them, their team's or the ones they manage. Fields can be hidden per role. Generated from your description, not set up field by field.
No-Password Doors
A sign-in link by email, by default. Password sign-in if you'd rather.
Your brand
Your domain, your colours, your logo. Members see you.
