What it is
Plutio combines client and project management, billing, and workflows in one platform for freelancers, agencies, and small teams. Its tools include projects, tasks, time tracking, invoices, proposals, contracts, scheduling, forms, files, and client portals. Plutio Pal can take actions in the workspace, with monthly AI credits ranging from 800 on Core to 10,000 on Max. Integrations include Stripe, PayPal, Square, Google Calendar, QuickBooks Online, Xero, Slack, Gmail, Google Drive, Dropbox, Zapier, and Make. Integrations are included in every plan, though third-party services may charge their own fees. Plans have a seven-day full-access trial without a credit card. After the trial, a limited free account retains existing data but cannot create projects or send invoices. Core costs $19 a month and allows nine active clients; Pro costs $49 a month with 30 contributors; Max costs $199 a month with unlimited active clients and contributors. Plutio offers iPhone, iPad, and Android apps, native Mac and Windows apps, and unlimited API access on all three plans.
