Atarim

Save Weeks & Months on Every Client Project.

You and your team have already mastered building websites, too often though projects get stuck for weeks and months waiting on the content and, that final approval from the client, right?

Well, at least for me at my agency, for my PMs and designers, this was a daily headache…

This is why we created a visual solution to help us get on the same page as our clients, quite literally.

That’s how we started but, over the years serving thousands of digital teams and hundreds of thousands of their clients through our system, we evolved to create the ultimate experience when building websites for clients.

Here are SOME of the things you can expect:

  • Visual collaboration directly on the website that is so easy, your grandma would get it.
  • Unique email inbox that automatically organises all your client requests.
  • Speed up your entire project delivery flow by weeks and months (not kidding).
  • Internal communications for QA or reminders, that clients can’t see.
  • Auto minify images for web and push them to the website with 1 click.
  • Integrations with all the tools you’re already using.

And a whole lot more…

I know you probably tried a million apps before, I did too – This is going to be the last one.

Come try for yourself here for free

OR, let’s book a 15 minutes demo to save you 2 months this year, per team member

(We’ve analyzed the time saved on more than 120,000 projects that have gone through our system. We found that the average saving is 2 hours per day, per team member(!)

This means more than 2 months per year per team member gained by implementing Atarim.)
