@richp_ Thank you!! :) Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make this better!

That Lansing page design really looks like that theme you can buy on bootstrap :) I’m using the same, it’s good !
Sanjay Nediyara
@pavlos1944 Yes! We spent most of our time on the core product experience, even our logo is just a letter in a box! :)

I loved the concept! It looks very clean, it is also affordable (I could kill Typeform for this), but I don't feel like the final product is there yet. As mentioned before, the File Upload section lacks of information/option to skip, I haven't logged in into the back-end but being able to customize the fields, the help center is empty and creating a Zapier integration would be fantastic. Hopefully, we would be able to become a paid user in the future! But amazing design and concept

@_davisnz ...and "skip" in file upload is live 🎉 Please take a look. Customisation soon 🚀 If you have the questions ready, I'd love to put together a custom version for you!

Nice UI & UX ✌️
Erika Harvery
i love the idea behind this, but when i had someone try it on my page, they didn't have anything to upload and they were trapped and unable to move forward? What were we doing that we should have seen to do for when a client doesn't have any files to upload?
Sanjay Nediyara
@erika_harvery Hey Erika - we are sorting this out, please let us get back to you soon!

Looks like a helpful and well-designed product. It doesn't seem to be ready yet though. Basic features are missing, like integrations with things like Google Sheets or Airtable (even better, Zapier!) I don't see myself paying for this just yet (perhaps in the future!) since a Typeform gives clients the same experience and also integrates with everything.
Sanjay Nediyara
@anna_0x Thanks Anna! In the coming weeks we'll have customisable questions, NDA (which clients can request and sign right away) and better lead generation. Is there anything you'd absolutely want before these? (and thank you so much for taking time to send these feedback!)
Anna Filou
@cod3boy no problem! Yes, Zapier integrations! :D Currently I use Typeform > Zapier > Airtable but am always looking for better ways to do things.

Unfortunately I could use the chat demo interface on Chrome nor Firefox. Needs some work, so keep at it.
Sanjay Nediyara
@axtg Can you please try again? We are not responsive, but otherwise works fine everywhere!

Hi all - My first launch on Product hunt! 🎉🎉🎉 Client. is a simple tool for requirement collection for freelancers and agencies. Getting the requirements right is the first step in any successful project. More often we spend a lot of time on to and fro emails, calls and "discussing" the project to get that initial idea. Our current setup includes:: Initial questionnaire + File upload + Call scheduling We'll be putting up NDAs later this week, so your clients can just get the NDA signed in less than a minute. This is a very early launch, please let me know your feedback! 😁I'll be around to answer any questions!
Varun Nair
@sandeep_as1, interesting! What does include in the initial questionnaires and what other benefits can we expect for an agencies out of this?
Sanjay Nediyara
@sandeep_as1 @iamvarunnair Hey Varun - There is a demo here https://demo.toclient.com/ Questions are not customisable now, but that's on the top of our list! We also have one click NDAs coming up soon!
Varun Nair
@sandeep_as1 @cod3boy Sure that works for me Sanjay, will give you feedback once i am done with demo. Thank you for quick response.
Jim Raptis
Nice design and product demo idea! Good job cause it's a great way to filter your job requests! I really liked the chat-based system to collect the requirements. It creates a feeling of urgency that made me structure my though. One minor UX-related remark is about the upload file section. It's not documented enough and therefore it is not clear what type of files should I upload.
Sanjay Nediyara
@draptis Noted, we are on it! Please give us a few hours to work something out! 🙌
Sanjay Nediyara
@draptis Here we go! We'll try to work out something nicer soon, but for now https://drive.google.com/file/d/...
Isaac Weinbach
@draptis @cod3boy I agree, although there is a file upload, it's not clear to a client what exactly they need to be uploading. You can guide them and say please share any files we should look at such as designs, mocks, business plans, etc...
Sanjay Nediyara
@draptis @i_wein Hey Issac - we added a new question - see this screenshot - https://drive.google.com/file/d/... but looks like it may not be that obvious. We'll try something soon!
Anna Filou
@draptis @i_wein @cod3boy Images aren't supported? 😁🤔

I like the idea, it definitely makes collecting information from potential clients a more enjoyable experience but that's really it. Also it feels like a very unfinished product, lots of bare looking pages and some sections just don't make sense like the leads. In addition, some of the core logic just does not making sense. Example: the questions lead to the user to select a time they want to schedule a call, but the application never asks for a phone number? My next steps would be to work on the current features you have, refine them, fix some of the logic and focus on the quality of the lead collection flow. Possible lead goes to my page > collect information > ASK FOR PHONE NUMBER > select a time > etc
Sanjay Nediyara
@chek Thank you for the valuable feedback! 😁We put this together in a very short period, but that is never an excuse, the leads page is meant for people who don't have any inbound leads on their own, I think the page lacks clarity, will surely work on that! About phone number, most people prefer email, so we have email for now. We'll be letting people customise their questions themselves soon! But I really wish you didn't down vote us for this 😪
Anna Filou
@chek @cod3boy most people do prefer email, but if someone who supposedly wants to work with you outright refuses to give you their phone number, that can't be a good sign

I like the idea of making the client onboarding easier for freelancers. I think there's still some ways to go in terms of how you advertise your features on your site. From checking the landing page it seems like a Typeform could handle much of what you're asking for during the onboarding of a new client. I've given some additional visual annotations here: https://app.usebubbles.com/cc7ac...
Sanjay Nediyara
@tom4 Wow Tom, that's a lot of feedback. Thank you so much for taking time to check them out and document it like this. Really appreciate your time!
Harry Burr
Hi Sandeep. Just wondering why the product image on the Product Hunt listing looked different to the product demo you have shared? Seems like a great product!
Sanjay Nediyara
@harry_burr1 Which image? We just put a screenshot from product to PH.
Jensen Chen
Why they are so many tools for freelancers? In China, it's hard to find
Sanjay Nediyara
@jensen_chen We are releasing customisable questions soon, and that means you can add your own language!
Oleg
Good idea, neat design, demo client gives a brief idea what it is. What client-side tech have you used to build a demo client?
Branimir Hrženjak
I'm currently not in the market for such a product, but I have to say - I was immediately drawn by the visuals and clean design. Great job & good luck!
Sanjay Nediyara
@branimir_hrzenjak Thank you! 🎉Really appreciate you taking time to checkout and saying that! :)
