Progress is computed
Completed work over total work, using the weight you give each milestone. There is no slider to keep honest before a client call.
- Weight-based percentage
- Phase dates from the plan
- Ahead / on track / behind

ProjectPulse gives every client one link with phases, milestones, files and next steps. Progress is recalculated from the plan, so the page stays current without a status email.

The status problem
Every quiet week costs you a status email.
Clients do not chase you because they are difficult. They chase you because the last thing they saw was a message from nine days ago and they cannot tell whether that still holds.
Without a status page
- “Any update?” arrives on a Friday evening
- Progress lives in your head
- Approvals scattered in email threads
- Every recap written by hand
With ProjectPulse
- The client checks the link themselves
- Progress is derived from real milestones
- Approvals recorded with a timestamp
- Recaps write themselves
What makes it different
Four things a status email can never do.
One link, no login
Clients open a branded page built for reading, not for learning software. No invitation, no password reset, no seat to pay for.
- Hard-to-guess link
- Optional passcode or email code
- Turn the page off instantly
Answers come back structured
Approvals and requests arrive with a type, a priority and attachments, instead of scattered across email threads and chat.
- One-click approvals
- Requests & change requests
- Timestamped record
You run the delivery too
Developers, designers and agencies plan phases, tasks and dependencies in the workspace — the client page is simply what that plan looks like from outside.
- Task board with blockers
- Templates per project type
- CSV export of your data
Why it stays true
The page stays honest on the days you do nothing.
Progress is not a number you type in. It is completed weight against total weight, measured against a schedule the app resolves for you — so the ring, the health badge and the projected finish always reflect reality.

Milestones per project, weighted however you work
Project links are unguessable, revocable and can require a passcode or an emailed code before anything is shown.
