The client portal overlay

Your clients' home base, laid over the tools you already use.

One branded link. Files, chat, project status, and invoices — pulled live from your Drive, Slack, and Stripe. Vellum never stores the underlying content.

Now create invoices and editable documents alongside your client Hubs.

Powered by VellumHub

Vellum works with the tools you already use — an overlay, not a replacement. Sending a 4 GB file? Share it with DashBeam, WeTransfer or Drive, then pin the link in the Hub. Your files never move.

Watch the journey

Start free, create invoices, share your Hub

A real screen recording of Vellum — creating an account with no card, adding a client, pointing the Hub at your files, chat and invoice, then opening the link a client receives. Then see how the free week works, copy a Drive or Dropbox share link, create an invoice, edit free lawyer and agent drafts, and compare free tools with paid templates.

  1. 01
    Day 1 — sign up

    Email or Google, no card. Your workspace and first Hub are ready in under a minute.

  2. 02
    Add up to 7 clients

    Each client gets one branded Hub link they open without an account or password.

  3. 03
    Paste share links

    Copy a Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive or Teams link. Any file size — Vellum stores only the link.

  4. 04
    Access checks

    Vellum warns you when a link is private, so clients never hit “Request access”.

  5. 05
    Track and approve

    See when the Hub and each file are opened, and collect sign-off with name and date.

  6. 06
    Day 8 — upgrade

    The trial ends by itself. Pick Solo or Agency; your clients and Hubs are kept.

How it works

Four tiles. One Hub. Zero storage.

01FILES

Files

Preview folders straight from Google Drive or Dropbox. Vellum stores the folder link, not the files.

02CHAT

Chat

Route clients to your live WhatsApp or Slack thread. Message content stays with the provider.

03STATUS

Status

Show a 4-stage tracker: Discovery, In Progress, In Review, Delivered.

04INVOICE

Invoice

Deep-link to the hosted Stripe or PayPal invoice. No card data touches Vellum.

Built for how you already work

One overlay, three very different practices.

Maya · Freelance Designer

Stop being asked "where's the file?"

"I was organized in four different apps — which, to a client, looks exactly like being disorganized."

Maya keeps working in Drive, WhatsApp, and Stripe exactly as before. She maps each once per client, and the client gets a single clean link instead of four scattered ones.

Simple, seat-free pricing
—Zero migration — nothing leaves her existing accounts
—One link to send instead of four
—Set up per client in under five minutes
The zero-storage architecture

Request. Verify. Relay.

Vellum authenticates the visitor against a magic-link token, verifies the source is still connected, and relays a live preview from your provider. The file, message, and payment never sit on our disks — we only remember which folder belongs to which client.

  1. 01Client opens their branded Hub link
  2. 02Vellum verifies the token and looks up routing metadata
  3. 03The live preview is relayed from your Drive / Slack / Stripe
What customers say

Freelancers, studios and firms run their clients on Vellum.

"My clients stopped asking "where's the file?" Everything they need lives on one link I sent them once — and I never re-send anything."
Maya H.
Freelance brand designer
"We onboard a new client in about five minutes, and the Hub looks like we built our own portal. Nobody on the team had to learn a new tool."
Daniel R.
Studio manager, 12-person agency
"The moment we read "Vellum stores no documents — only links," a three-week procurement debate was over. That line alone sold it internally."
Sarah K.
Operations partner, law firm
