“I was tracking pitches in a spreadsheet, drafts in Google Docs, and invoices in my email. Agiled replaced all three and I never lose track of where a piece stands.”

Writing & deadlines
Manuscripts, articles, and client pieces all have different deadlines—you juggle them in your head until something slips.
Organize every project from outline to published. Track research, drafts, edits, and delivery so you hit every deadline without the panic.
Invoicing & payments
You submit the piece and then wait weeks to invoice—or worse, the publication pays net-60 and you've already forgotten to track it.
Create invoices the moment work is delivered. Track per-word fees, flat rates, and retainers. Send reminders so slow payers can't hide.
Contracts & agreements
Starting work without a signed agreement means no protection for kill fees, copyright ownership, or payment terms when things go sideways.
Send professional contracts with scope, deadlines, kill-fee clauses, and copyright terms. Get e-signatures before you write a single word.
Client portal
Editors and clients can't find the latest draft, lose track of feedback, and forget to pay—so they email you asking for everything again.
Give every client a portal where they can view drafts, leave feedback, approve final versions, and pay invoices—all without scattered email chains.
Estimates & proposals
Pitching without a detailed proposal means editors don't take you seriously—and verbal agreements lead to payment disputes later.
Build professional proposals with word counts, deliverables, timelines, and pricing. Send for approval and convert accepted proposals into projects and invoices.
Task management
Research, outlines, drafts, and edits for multiple clients pile up—and without a clear task list, the most urgent deadline always surprises you.
Break every project into tasks with due dates, priorities, and attachments. See exactly what needs your attention today across every active client.
