Hey! Just checking — any update on the website?

Clients don’t need another project management tool. They just need to know what’s happening.

Give every client one simple page showing what’s done, what’s next, and what you need from them.

What’s on the page

Your clients only need five things.

Everything else in your project tool exists for you, not for them. Sightline publishes the five parts they actually read, and nothing behind them.

We need from you
Stripe credentials
Final pricing copy
The client side
No account.
No onboarding.
No software to learn.

Just send them the link. Most clients open it on a phone, straight out of WhatsApp, and it’s the same page they’d get on a laptop.

The only thing they can touch is the list of things you’re waiting on. When Sarah taps Stripe credentials, it’s done on your side before she’s put the phone down.

Your side

Two minutes to set up. A minute a week after that.

Keep using Notion, Linear, or the spreadsheet you already trust. This is the layer your client sees.

01
Create the project
Name, client, stage.
02
Add milestones
Five is usually plenty.
03
Add what you need
Logins, copy, approvals.
04
Send the link
Once. It stays current.
05
Keep it true
Nudge progress, write a line.

Scope

It isn’t another project management tool.

You already have one, and your client doesn’t want a seat in it. Sightline reads what you publish and shows nothing else.

Not a task manager
Not team chat
Not a calendar
Not file storage
Not another dashboard your client has to learn
It’s the page your client checks when they want to know what’s happening.
Founding beta — currently open

We’re looking for our first 25 agencies.

Sightline is currently in beta. We’re inviting a small group of agencies, studios, and freelancers to use it with real client projects and help shape the product.

Free during beta. No credit card, no commitment, and nothing to cancel if it isn’t for you.

Why it’s free

We’re still figuring it out.

This product is early. We’re building it with real agencies rather than guessing what they need from behind a desk. If you use it, we’ll listen to what works, what doesn’t, and what you’d change.

Use it
With a real client project, not a test one.
Tell us what sucks
And what you keep reaching for that isn't there.
Shape it
While it's small enough to change quickly.
Beta questions
Is it really free?
Yes. It's free while we're in beta.
Do I need a credit card?
No.
Who is it for?
Small agencies, studios, freelancers, and teams running client projects.
Can I use it with real clients?
That's exactly what we're looking for.
What happens when the beta ends?
We haven't settled on pricing yet. Founding users will get clear notice before anything changes.

Give your clients one place to look.

Stop answering “any updates?” in WhatsApp.

Built for small agencies that are tired of answering “any updates?” — no case studies or customer logos yet, because it’s new.
