1. Describe the problem:
I'm building a software development agency and I've run into an operational problem: I don't have a centralized way to manage everything that the business involves.
I need to control several things in parallel:
All this information is scattered across different tools or not recorded in a structured way at all. It's chaos, a waste of time, and an operational risk.
I've looked for an off-the-shelf solution. Agency tools cover either the business side: projects, clients, invoices, or the technical side: monitoring, domains, servers. But not both at once. That's exactly why the thought arises: maybe what's needed isn't yet another universal platform, but a flexible system that can be configured for a specific tech agency, taking into account all the specifics and tasks.
I need to control several things in parallel:
- Domains I own and their status
- Where projects are hosted: hosting, servers, providers
- Progress of each project: pending, in development, in testing, in production
- Status of critical APIs: working or having outages
- Availability of my own services: online or down
- Subscriptions to tools: monthly and annual
- Commercial proposals to clients and their status: pending, approved, rejected
- Possibly something else in the future

2. How often does the problem occur?
Every day. Every new project, domain, hosting, API, or subscription — the question arises again: where do I record this and how do I find it later? The more clients and projects, the more acute it becomes. The problem isn't just frequent — it accumulates.
3. What attempts have you made to solve the problem?
I've looked for an off-the-shelf solution. I've tried Notion and Google Sheets. Nothing works for me. Right now I'm thinking of building a solution myself, but maybe someone will still take this on and solve the problem effectively.
