Kitchen

Kitchen is a dedicated client portal designed for freelancers and small agencies who need everything in one place. Unlike enterprise tools, it focuses on simplicity and removes unnecessary features, making onboarding clients frictionless. The lifetime deal option ($299–$599 one-time) is particularly attractive for indie hackers avoiding recurring subscription costs. Core features like projects, tasks, invoices, and client messaging come bundled without feature gatekeeping.\n\nCompared to Basecamp, Kitchen includes native invoicing and client payment processing, eliminating the need for separate billing tools. Its white-label capabilities let you present the portal as your own brand to clients, building trust and professionalism without heavy customization complexity.
