What we believe

Independent work deserves better infrastructure.

Most independents don't need another marketplace. They need a professional profile, smart proposals, enforceable contracts, built-in payments, project tracking, and client reviews — all in one place.

Postboard connects that entire workflow so nothing falls through the cracks — from first inquiry to final review.

Zero commission, forever
Your clients, your relationships
Anyone can start
Free that works for real
Trust over growth
The magic

From project brief to your first real proposal.

Describe the project in one sentence. Postboard drafts scope, pricing, milestones, and terms. You edit, send one link, and collect a deposit.

Plus: AI-powered pricing intelligence, smart nudges, client brief analysis, and revenue forecasting.

Step 01

Describe the project

"Website refresh for a local cafe, 5 pages, 2 weeks." Keep it simple and specific.

Step 02

Review and edit

Postboard drafts scope, pricing, milestones, and terms so you polish instead of starting from scratch.

Step 03

Send and collect deposit

Share one link. Your client reviews, accepts, and pays. Fewer back-and-forth emails.

The ecosystem

Everything you need to run client work.

Use one connected workflow instead of stitching together docs, payment links, and scattered project notes.

You become professional

Tell Postboard what you do. In minutes, you have a profile, your first AI-generated proposal, and a shareable link. You look like you've been doing this for years.

Month 1

You close real deals

Proposals go out. Clients accept with one click. Deposits land in your account. You have a system — not a collection of hacks.

Your reputation compounds

Completed projects turn into reviews. Reviews build your profile. New clients come to you because your track record speaks for itself.

Who builds here

Every stage. One home.

Whether you're sending your first proposal or managing your twentieth client — Postboard is built for where you are and where you're going.

The person with a skill

"I'm good at this — but I've never charged for it."

Postboard gives you a professional profile, AI-generated proposals, and built-in payment collection — so you can go from "I should charge for this" to sending your first invoice tonight.

Profile, proposals, and payments in minutes

The independent operator

"I'm making money — but it's held together with Venmo and hope."

Replace the scattered docs, Venmo requests, and mental tracking with AI proposals, milestone payments, contract generation, and a dashboard that shows your whole pipeline.

One system replaces five tools

The studio & agency

"This is my business — and I'm done giving away 20%."

Keep 100% of your revenue with zero commission. Postboard gives you branded proposals, contract workflows, revenue forecasting, and a public portfolio that builds your reputation — not someone else's platform.

Your clients, your reputation, your money

Your money

Stop giving up part of every project.

Many platforms charge commission on your revenue. Postboard doesn't. You keep what you earn.

Commission platforms

You earn$10,000
Platform fee (20%)−$2,000
You keep$8,000
Postboard

Standard payment processing applies (2.9% + 30¢ via Stripe). But we never take a percentage of your work. Not 5%. Not 2%. Zero.

Everything connected

Your core workflow in one system.

No fragmented stack. Keep your client journey in one place from first proposal to final review.
