What it is
17hats is a work-management platform for service-driven businesses run by one person. It brings contacts and projects into a dashboard with tags, pipelines, and related-contact links. Users can prepare quotes, contracts, invoices, and questionnaires, with templates and reminders for documents. Online scheduling lets clients select services and book; advanced options include payment at booking and Zoom links. Workflows can automate steps in business processes. Payment processing is available through Stripe and Square, and some payment features require those processors. Integrations include Apple and Google calendars, QuickBooks Online, Zapier, and Zoom. Free Android and Apple apps can send notifications about leads, payments, documents, and scheduling changes. Packages vary in monthly document limits: 20, 35, or unlimited, with the middle package allowing 25 extra documents for $10. Bank Connect is an optional $5/month add-on that brings expenses into the platform. 17hats is available on Android, iOS, and the web. Pricing starts at $60/mo, with a 7-day trial and no free plan.
