Project Vision

Work Management For Digital Creatives

Halftone is an app and website designed to help professional digital creatives' workflow. It focuses on tracking all pertinent documentation involving a client project to make the business side of a digital creative’s work easier. It is designed to automate portions of the business process to make it easier for digital creatives to focus on the actual products they are producing for their clients.  This includes automated reminders of project tasks, messages to the client to encourage feedback when the product is updated, and automatically filled-in invoices based on project plans that can be edited and sent over to the clients. Other features would include template designs for standard project documents like project proposals or project contracts and the management of all overall clients, revenue, expenses, and equipment in both a web and application setting.
