For freelancers and small studios

Look like a bigger shop, without the bigger process

Send a link. Your client pins their comments on the real thing, no account needed. You get clean feedback, the rounds you quoted, and a sign-off you can invoice against. It takes two minutes to set up and it makes you look like you have a project manager.

Start free trial

14 days of Studio. No card needed.

You are the designer, the developer, the account manager and the person chasing the email

Feedback comes in at 11pm as a voice note. The client's partner has opinions. Round three happened without anyone agreeing to it, and now you are deciding whether to invoice for it or eat it. You do not have a project manager. You have you.

HopBack is the project manager. It holds the feedback, counts the rounds, sends the reminders and records the approval, so you can get back to the work.

What changes

One link replaces the thread

Every comment lands on the element, with the client's name, in one list. No more scrolling an email chain for the thing they said about the footer.

Carrot pins and comments →

Rounds you can point to

Quote two rounds. Set two rounds. The client sees "Round 2 of 2" on the review. When they ask for more, you both already know it is extra.

Revision rounds →

Reminders you do not have to write

Set a deadline and HopBack nudges the client in your words, on business days, and stops when they finish. Studio plan.

Client reminders →

A sign-off for the invoice

Approve records who and when, and locks the feedback. "I never approved that" stops being a conversation.

Approvals →

Logo, brand, website, print, video: one tool the client learns once

Most freelance relationships start with a logo and grow into a website and print. Instead of email for the logo, PDF comments for the brochure and Figma for the site, it is the same link every time. By the website, the client already knows what to do.

Feedback they actually wrote

A pin has to be placed by a person looking at the design, so you get the client's own reaction to the specific thing, not a page of AI slop forwarded from an email. Shorter, clearer, and something you can act on the same afternoon.

Your client thinks you are organized

Because you are. No account for them, no manual, and a review that works on their phone.

What freelancers say

I used to eat the third round because I could never prove we'd already had two. Now the client sees 'Round 2 of 2' on the link, and when they ask for more, I send a quote instead of an apology. It paid for itself the first month.
Jess CarterFreelance web designer, Melbourne

My clients are not technical. They open the link on their phone, tap the thing, type a sentence. That is the whole onboarding, and it is why they use it.
Marcus BellFreelance brand designer, Bristol

The approval with a name and a time is the part I did not know I needed. When the brief drifts a month later, I point at it and we move on.

FAQ

Questions

Is Starter enough for a freelancer?

For most, yes. Ten active reviews is ten projects open at once. Archive a finished one and the slot frees up. Everything core is included.

Will my clients be confused by a new tool?

The opposite, usually. They open a link, type their name and click. There is nothing to learn, and it is more enjoyable than an email: instead of staring at a blank reply, they point at things, which makes them specific without trying. Most clients finish their first review without asking a question. And when they hit Approve, a little confetti goes off. It is a small touch, but it makes signing off feel like a good moment rather than a chore. For anyone who wants a little more help, there is a short reviewer guide you can send with the link, and the Help link inside every review opens it.

Can I use it for logos and print, not just websites?

Yes. Upload an image or a PDF and review it the same way.

Can I add a collaborator later?

Yes. Starter includes two seats. Add more at $6 a month each, or move to Studio.

Do I need a card for the trial?

No. Fourteen days of Studio, then pick a plan.
