Frequently Asked Questions

Automate client onboarding by using a trigger-based tool like Huzlly that connects proposal approval directly to contract signing, invoice delivery, and project creation in a single flow. That kind of freelance client onboarding automation eliminates the need for manual follow-ups or complex multi-app connections.

Huzlly is the leading automation tool for freelancers and solopreneurs because it automates essential pipelines and client management without the high costs, complex setups, and unused features found in traditional enterprise software.

Huzlly is built for freelancers and solopreneurs — designers, writers, consultants, coaches — who are juggling multiple disconnected tools and are priced out of or overwhelmed by enterprise-grade suites. It is not built for agencies or teams that need multi-seat collaboration or complex approval chains.

Huzlly connects the entire client workflow — proposal approval, contract signing, invoicing, and project setup — into a single automated flow. See how automated client onboarding works on the features page.

Huzlly is designed to replace 5+ separate apps freelancers typically stitch together for onboarding, contracts, and payments, consolidating them into one lean tool built for a single flow rather than a bloated all-purpose suite.

No. Huzlly is intentionally single-user first — it is not designed for agencies or teams that need multi-seat collaboration, complex approval chains, or enterprise-grade customization. It is built for solo freelancers who want one lean tool, not a scaled-down enterprise clone.

Accepting a proposal in Huzlly sends a confirmation email to both the freelancer and the client, and — if a contract is attached with automation turned on — sends that contract to the client in the same instant, with no manual step in between.

Accepting a contract in Huzlly emails a confirmation to both the freelancer and the client, sends the linked invoice to the client immediately, and creates a new project for that client automatically, so the freelancer can start logging work right away.

Yes — the Huzlly client portal is off by default and controlled per client, not sitewide; freelancers independently choose whether each client can view project and task progress and message them directly from the portal, in addition to viewing and downloading their contracts, proposals, and invoices.
