Everything Calisto does here
The pages behind this comparison: the sector, the apps and the guides.
- SectorCalisto for Graphic Designers & Artists
Brief intake, signed scope, revision limits, timestamped approvals, milestone invoicing, and a handoff package on one project record. The client who never had to chase a file, question a revision count, or wonder about an invoice is the client who sends the next brief.
Open - Graphic Designers & ArtistsLeads, Proposals & Pipeline
A restaurant owner submits a brief on the portfolio contact form and the submission creates the contact, opens the deal, and pre-fills the brief. The proposal then reads live catalog pricing, the contract names who owns the source file, and the revision counter runs against the limit that was signed.
Open - Graphic Designers & ArtistsProduction, Deliverables & Files
Brand colors preloaded, mockups across eight product templates, and a gallery link that does not expire. Feedback lands on the version it is about, approval carries a name and a timestamp, and the font license archives next to the file it licenses.
Open - Graphic Designers & ArtistsClient Communication & Portal
Instagram DM, WhatsApp and email on one contact card, and one URL where the client finds the brief, the revisions, the contract and the approved finals.
Open - Graphic Designers & ArtistsRetainers, Payments & Scheduling
Retainer usage alerting at 75 percent rather than at the invoice, seventy-five gateways behind the milestone schedule, and capacity measured in hours that actually exist.
