Shared folders and notes for freelancers
Share notes and folders and write in them together
Share a folder. Write in it together.
Invite people to a folder or a note and work in it from your own Grape. Sharing comes with Sync and Pro, and on Pro you see each other type, with a named cursor for each person.
Share a folder with its subfolders and notes, or a single note on its own
Can edit for the people you work with, Can view for the ones who only read
Edits merge, so two people in the same paragraph never overwrite each other
On Pro, everyone in the note types live, each with a cursor that carries their name
On Sync, edits arrive with sync a couple of seconds later and merge the same way
You and everyone you invite need Sync or Pro, and a locked note is never shared
Invite by email
Type an address, choose Can edit or Can view and send. They join from the email or from the app.
See each other type
On Pro, everyone in the note writes live, with a cursor in their own colour that carries their name.
Can edit or Can view
Editing for the people you work with, reading only for the ones who just need to keep up.
On Sync, edits merge
Changes arrive a couple of seconds after they are made, and both sides are kept rather than overwritten.
See who changed what
Version history lists every edit under the name of whoever made it, with what they added and deleted.
Your undo stays yours
In a live note, undo takes back what you typed and never the line someone else just wrote.
the gist
Three things that stop costing you unpaid hours
Not a feature tour. What changes when four clients live in one head that is not yours.
Every client switch costs twenty minutes of remembering where things stood.
Switch clients without losing context
Ask what happened last with a client and start the call already caught up.
The kickoff call was clear and the brief written afterwards is not.
Turn the kickoff call into the brief
Record it, get the transcript, and ask for the scope and deliverables in writing.
The invoice dates and follow ups are in a place you never open.
Keep the admin somewhere you will look
Checklists, dates and follow ups in the same note as the work itself.
a working month
What that looks like for freelancers
Three moments where the app gives you an hour back.
New enquiry
Record the call, get the scope out of the transcript, and quote from that.
Delivery
One folder per client with the brief, the work notes and the checklist.
End of month
Ask what you delivered and what is still unpaid.
The rest of the app
What Else Grape Does
Every part of the app is built around the same idea: keep what you write, and hand it back when you need it.
Keep one clear head.
Briefs, calls, invoices to chase and the idea you had for a fifth project, in one library that costs nothing to start and works without a connection.
