Build vs. buy
Custom project management tool vs. off-the-shelf
Consultants run several engagements at once where every hour is billable — deliverables, deadlines, and time get split across tools, so utilization and slipping milestones are hard to see until it's late.

Ownership
Your project management tool, your data
It's a real app that belongs to you. the code, the database, and the domain. not a rented seat in someone else's platform.
You own the code
Your project management tool is a real app you can export to GitHub. not a config trapped inside someone else's platform.
Your own database
Records live in your app's own database, not pooled in a vendor's cloud with everyone else's.
Your own domain
Publish on your custom domain so it's your project management tool, on your brand. not a subdomain of theirs.
No per-seat lock-in
Add your whole team without per-seat pricing, and leave anytime with your data intact.
Playbook
Built around how consultants really work
A project management tool for consultants ties deliverables, deadlines, and billable hours to each engagement. You're running several client engagements at once, tracking tasks and milestones, and every hour matters. Describe how you work and the AI builds a tool around engagements, deliverables, assignments, and time tracking.
Engagement per client its own project with the milestones and deliverables clients expect.
Billable hours track time against tasks so utilization and invoices are grounded in real time.
Owners and due dates so multi-client work never drops between engagements.
Milestone timeline spot a slipping deadline before the client does.
Shareable status a dashboard clients can see so progress doesn't need a status call.
Utilization vs. capacity watch billable against available hours so you take the next engagement at the right time.
Scope and change orders log out-of-scope asks against the SOW so extra work is billed, not absorbed.
Retainer vs. fixed-fee track both engagement types so hours burned map to how each is actually billed.
Built for the details
What a project management tool for consultants actually tracks

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is a project management tool for consultants?
It ties engagements, deliverables, tasks, and billable hours together in one place — built around how you work. Kleap builds one from a plain-language description.
Can it track billable hours?
Yes. Log time against tasks and engagements to see utilization and ground your invoices in real hours, no separate timesheet.
Can I share status with clients?
Yes. Roll status into a dashboard you can share so clients see progress and milestones without a status call.
How is it different from Harvest or a standalone time tracker?
Harvest and Toggl track time but not the engagement, deliverables, and milestones around it. A custom tool ties hours to the project and client in one place — and you own the data, with no per-seat tax.
Can it separate billable from non-billable time?
Yes. Log time against tasks with a billable flag, so utilization, invoices, and internal effort are all visible without a separate timesheet tool.
Can Kleap really build a project management tool for consultants?
Yes. A Project Management Tool for Consultants: Engagements, Tasks, and Hours works by turning a plain-language description of how your team works into a working project management tool — the boards, timelines, assignments, and dashboards that fit consultants, not a rigid scheme.
How much does it cost to build a project management tool?
A traditional custom PM-tool build with a dev agency can cost tens of thousands of dollars. With Kleap you describe how your team works and the AI builds it — free to start, so you skip the agency invoice.
Is it free to start?
Yes. You can describe your process, generate a working project management tool, preview it live, and keep refining it in chat for free. Advanced options like a custom domain and the enterprise build service are paid.
Do I need to design a database or write code?
No. You describe your boards, tasks, and dashboards in your own words and Kleap builds the app. You refine it by chatting — no schema design, no code.
What if I want experts to build and run it for me?
