Deliver
Plan the work.
- Move delivery tasks through boards and lists. Use a Gantt timeline to see dates and dependencies.
- Save a project as a template, then start the next one with shifted dates.
- Turn public intake submissions into tasks, each with a reference number.

Track
Give every hour a home.
- Enter hours in the weekly grid, copy across days, or start a timer with an explicit project and billing-category picker.
- Preview “3h Fernwood design today” before saving. Natural-language entry and opt-in approvals Included
- Rates snapshot at entry, so later rate changes do not rewrite past time entries.

TrackIncluded
See what the work earns.
- Margin means billable value minus labor cost. It is not business profit.
- Compare utilization with the schedule and watch project budget burn.
- Missing cost rates are flagged because they can understate labor cost and overstate margin.

Get Paid
Invoice and collect.
- Build invoices from tracked time, with an explanation of excluded hours when something cannot bill.
- Track deposits and installments. Schedule retainer funding and monitor balances.
- Issue credit notes, configure late fees, and send overdue reminder emails. Unlimited invoices are included.

Get Paid
The money workflows, already built in.
Deposits, installments, retainers, credit notes, reminders — native.
