I built Briefly, a web app on Bubble.io that helps freelancers handle client pitches without the headache.
Smart Drafting: It takes a messy, casual client message and turns it into a clean, structured proposal with milestones and budgets.
Easy Sharing: Instead of messing with PDFs, you just send a secure web link that clients can view instantly without making an account.
All-in-One Feedback: Clients can leave comments directly on the page, and everything is tracked in one simple dashboard.
Modern Design: I focused on a clean, dark-themed UI that feels premium and is easy to navigate.
Why I Built It
Scratching my own itch: As a freelance AR and game dev, I get a lot of casual project requests. Writing proposals from scratch for every single one eats up hours of unbillable time.
Skipping the blank page: I wanted a tool that bridges the gap between a quick, disorganized email and a confident, ready-to-send pitch.
No more lost emails: Keeping track of revision requests in long email chains is a mess. I needed a way to keep all client comments permanently attached to the actual proposal.
The Contra Challenge: I wanted to test what I could pull off with no-code tools and see how fast I could launch a real, usable product without writing traditional web code.
Really impressive work! 🔥 Turning an idea into a functional website with Bubble.io AI is seriously cool. Great execution—excited to see where you take it next! 🚀
Love the concept! Turning messy client messages into structured proposals is a huge time-saver for freelancers. The clean web link approach instead of back-and-forth PDFs is a solid touch."
This is a strong example of product thinking beyond the UI. Turning an actual freelancer pain point into a focused workflow—with smart drafting and structured proposals—makes the concept feel genuinely useful, not just visually polished. Great execution.
The piece I would protect is keeping client comments pinned to the proposal itself. That is where most of my revision chaos comes from, not the drafting. If Briefly ties threaded feedback to specific milestones, that alone earns its keep for freelancers.
hey everyone, i'm open to taking projects this month.
specifically interested in consumer web & mobile 0→1 products.
if your product has a specific friction point users keep hitting, that's usually where I start.
