Your clients, one link.

Why email stops working

When you have two clients, email is fine. When you have six, it falls apart.

What breaks first:

• You send v3 of a logo. The client downloads v2 from their inbox instead.
• A client asks "which file was the final one?" - you spend 10 minutes searching.
• You send a Google Drive link. The permissions get reset or the file gets moved into a folder they can't see. They email you a week later asking for it again.
• Three clients are in your inbox. A message lands on the wrong thread. Now you're apologizing.
• You've shared the same Dropbox folder with three people who share nothing with each other.

Every one of these is a context-switching tax on your actual work. Droplana removes that tax. For the full picture on what a client portal is and how to evaluate one, see our client portal guide.

How freelancers use Droplana

One portal per client, always

New client starts? Create a portal and send them the link. That's their space - files, per-file comments, status updates, all in one place they can always return to.

No hunting for "the right version"

Upload files directly to the portal. Your client sees what you put there. You see what they downloaded. Version confusion stops at the upload.

Comments that stick

Instead of email threads that grow and fork, leave comments directly on files inside the portal. Feedback stays in context with each file - not buried in a separate email thread.

Track without chasing

The portal shows you when your client accessed it and when a file was downloaded. You'll know your client has been in before you pick up the phone.

Revoke access when the project ends

Project done? Revoke the portal. Your client keeps access if you leave it open, or you close it cleanly - files stay put either way. Your workspace stays tidy.

Common freelancer use cases

Designers

Mockups, revisions, brand guidelines, exported assets - all in one link. Send a portal instead of a Dropbox folder and stop re-sending files when links expire.

Developers

Deploy previews, documentation, handoff packages, launch checklists. Your client has a single place to check instead of a growing email thread.

Copywriters & content creators

Drafts, review rounds, final deliverables. Clients leave feedback in the portal - no conflicting comments across two versions of a Google Doc.

Photographers & videographers

Proof galleries, download links, final exports. High-res files delivered cleanly - no WeTransfer link that disappears in 7 days.

Consultants

Reports, research docs, recommendations, follow-up materials. Clients access everything at any time, not just when you happened to email it.

What Droplana is NOT for

It's not a replacement for Google Drive or Dropbox for your own working files. It's not built for internal team collaboration. If you want a shared workspace for your own side, use Notion, Slack, or Drive - Droplana is the layer your clients see.

Quick FAQ

Do clients need an account? No. They open their portal and verify their email once. No sign-up, no password, no app to install.

Can I have multiple clients at once? Yes. Every client gets their own isolated portal. Nothing bleeds between them.

Is there a free plan? Yes. 3 clients, 2 GB storage, 100 MB max file size. No credit card.

Does it replace my cloud storage? No - it's not trying to. Keep working files wherever you like. Droplana is the layer your clients see.
