Show HN: My consultancy built a project management tool made for client work

My favorite use-case for Projector so far was putting together a recent project proposal:

On my side, I: * broke down the project into stories and estimated those stories in hours, not points. * also added the regular template of tasks that take place to get a project off the ground, launched, and the known time required for those. * entered the hourly rate. * invited the prospective client to the project.

The client sees: * The sticker price. * How his request translates into work. * How larger features are broken down into smaller features that account for the cost of a feature. * He sees which features and areas of the project account for the most money. * He saw a line item for 'back and forth' design with a bunch of hours attached to it, which communicates: Nice design can be done on the cheap if you avoid the back and forth. Use us as a saw and not as a flash light. Measure twice, cut once.

This client accepted the proposal and the project management software is already configured for the project and ready for us to get started.

Like thedelchop (one of my co-workers) mentioned, the nice thing about Projector for a team like ours is that features and budgets are in the same place. I'm used to managing projects in Pivotal Tracker and my billing in Harvest. Clients are used to seeing progress daily in Pivotal Tracker and a sticker price on paper every couple of weeks. Now we all see it in one place, every day.

It also does time tracking and whatnot for a consulting firm. You may run into some TM issues with the name.

Nope. All you need to sign up is an account name, email address, password and the name of your first project. When your tiral expires, we'll calculate your plan based on the number of developer accounts you've setup. You can always remove developers (ask them first!) in order to downgrade your account.

Just a couple things here to note.

The first is a spelling mistake. "tiral" should be "trial".

The second is the usage of the word "Nope". Although the gist of the pricing page looks to be informal, "nope" is an incredibly informal word, especially when "No" is sufficient enough in this context.
