QUICK ANSWER

Angelwood automates client updates by syncing delivery data into a client-facing portal so teams stop rewriting status emails by hand.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Best for firms dealing with manual status updates and trying to improve client confidence without adding manual follow-up work.

RECOGNIZE THE PATTERN

The Status Update Time Sink

01

What it looks like

  • Hours spent compiling weekly status reports
  • Copy-pasting between PM tools and documents
  • Clients rarely read or respond to updates
  • Different formats for different clients
  • Updates outdated by the time they're sent
02

What gets in the way

  • No connection between PM tools and client communication
  • Manual compilation required for every update
  • One-way email updates don't engage clients
  • No self-service option for clients to check progress
  • Updates are push-only, not on-demand
03

Why it matters

  • Billable hours wasted on admin work
  • Team frustration with repetitive tasks
  • Clients still feel uninformed despite reports
  • Updates don't reflect real-time progress
  • Scaling client load means more reporting burden

GOOD QUESTIONS

Automate Client Updates FAQs

Which PM tools do you integrate with?

We integrate with Asana, Monday.com, ClickUp, Trello, Notion, and Teamwork. More integrations are added monthly based on customer requests.

Can I customize what clients see?

Absolutely. Choose which projects, tasks, and fields are visible. Keep internal work private while showing client-relevant progress.

Do I still need to write any updates?

Optional. You can add commentary or context when needed, but the base progress data flows automatically. Many teams send zero manual updates.

What if my PM tool data is messy?

Angelwood helps clean up the presentation. Map messy task names to client-friendly labels. The sync works even if your internal naming isn't perfect.
