Everything inside the Dash.

Eighteen pages, one file. The whole tour — no demo call, no gated pricing. What you read is what you get.

Tour · Your day

Open the Dash and it greets you by name, shows today’s schedule, and suggests one priority — overdue first. A work clock sits at the top: pick a client, pick a task, and the hours flow into your timesheet. Below it, the studio at a glance — revenue rhythm, work mix, weekly load, and a short “Needs your attention” list that stays quiet when everything is on track.

Lumen Studio · Studio Pulse

Good morning, Mia.

Today: 1 task due today · “Harbor — Social Set 6” due Thu. First, clear “Send Northwind hours invoice” — it slipped past its date.

Quiet hands, clear head, go.

Anything else on your mind? Drop it in a quick task.

Tour · Your money

Four invoice templates, your logo and signature, live totals, and one-page printing that respects your colors. Quotes come from the same editor. When an invoice goes unpaid, a reminder is one click away — judged against that client’s own payment history, not an arbitrary due date. Behind the paperwork, the Monthly Money Map separates what you earned from what actually landed, the forecast projects eight weeks out, the tax page tracks reserves, and “Your real hourly rate” names the service earning $9 an hour.

You may want to change some things

Logo Design earns $18/h — 64% below your $50/h average — while Social Media earns $68/h. Raise Logo Design pricing, timebox it, or steer the mix toward Social Media.

Tour · Your people

Client cards hold contacts, brand colors, fonts, working notes, and a health indicator that fades when a client goes quiet. Each gets a stats page — revenue by year, satisfaction average, month-by-month bars. Retainer clients get a burn bar against their monthly cap, so overservicing surfaces early, not at invoice time. Leads live in a pipeline with probabilities that decay as deals go cold; once a few are decided, the Dash learns your win rate by price band and flags quotes that are underpriced.

Tour · Your time

A weekly grid that thinks in hours and minutes, synced with the dashboard clock. A premium calendar — week, month, and day — with click-to-set recurrence and .ics import and export. Tasks stay attached to clients and projects, so nothing floats free.

A week view for 11–15 August with Campaign rollout, Client review, Motion handoff, Mobile QA and Final delivery blocked out.

Tour · Your protection

Every out-of-brief request gets one line in the project’s scope log. When the list grows, one click turns it into a change order — a new linked project, priced and ready to send. And before you accept the next project, press G: the Dash weighs it against your rates and your current load and answers GO, CAUTION, or PASS, with the math shown.

If you run a team, need client portals, or want built-in payments, a subscription suite is the right call. The Dash is built for one person.

also inside

The rest of it, briefly.

Nine more things the Dash does that don’t need a section of their own — but would be missing if they weren’t here.

  • Reminders

    Print the sticker sheet on the 16th. Make a card every February. Type it in a sentence and the Dash reads the date out of what you wrote, then nudges you on the day — or a fortnight before, your call.

  • Expenses & subscriptions

    Every recurring cost on any rhythm, including six payments then stop. Duplicate services get flagged, a budget bar says whether you’re on track, and about a hundred services arrive with their real logo.

  • Notes & content planner

    Notes that take formatting, checklists, and a client’s own branding — and beside them a board for what you’re posting next, Idea through Posted, with its own calendar.

  • Meetings

    Timezone conversion, an agenda you write beforehand, and a recap that turns your next steps into items you can tick off. Paste a calendar invite and the meeting fills itself in.

  • A page you can send a client

    A read-only status page for one client: pick the date range, pick the scope, send a PDF. It carries the numbers baked in and no connection back to your data.

  • Today’s story

    A 1080×1920 checklist of today in your studio’s colours, ready to post. Client names are stripped automatically, and you edit every line before it renders.

  • One palette, ⌘K

    Go to any page, add a task or a note in a sentence, run an export, or ask whether to take a job — without reaching for the mouse.

  • Payment channels

    Work that came through Upwork keeps its 12%. Go direct and only new work drops the fee, so last year’s numbers never quietly change underneath you.

  • Money check

    A standing audit for the things that silently break totals: money left on a deleted client, a foreign amount counted as dollars, the same job entered twice.

intelligence

The quiet part, made clear.

Most tools store what happened. Navis reads what it means — with plain rules over your own numbers. No cloud, no black box.

Needs your attention

Late invoiceUnbilled workRetainer due

A short list, not a feed: the invoice later than this client’s usual, approved work still unbilled, the retainer due this month. When nothing needs you, it reads “All clear.”

What to watch

Signals from your own history — the client worth winning back, a pipeline thinning before it costs you, three declining months and where to act first.

FAQ

01

Is it really one file?

Yes. One HTML file that opens in Chrome, Edge, or any modern browser. All eighteen pages inside.

02

Where does my data live?

On your computer. Point the optional Sync Folder at iCloud, Drive, or Dropbox and it backs up every ten minutes. Export the full bundle anytime — your data, in a file you can read.

03

Is it a subscription?

No. One payment. Future tools may ship as optional paid modules, but nothing you bought moves behind a new paywall.

04

Does it work offline?

Yes. Everything is calculated on your machine, and the fonts and charts are already inside the file. Only two things reach the internet — live exchange rates and the brand logos on the Expenses page — and the Dash keeps working without either. Work offline and nothing degrades.

05

What about a new machine?

Copy the file and import your backup, or point the new machine at your sync folder. About two minutes.

06

Do I need AI?

Only if you want it, and it never involves an account or an API key. If your browser has built-in on-device AI (Chrome’s Gemini Nano), the Dash can use it to tidy pasted text into tasks or draft a meeting debrief — it runs on your machine and nothing is uploaded. Without it, everything runs on plain local rules, and the interface tells you which you’re getting. There is no cloud AI in the Dash.

07

Do I get updates?

Yes. Smaller releases arrive through the in-app installer, which adds pages and features without replacing your file or touching your records. For a bigger release you get a fresh download by email, and your data comes across from your backup or your sync folder. Nothing you have already bought moves behind a paywall.

08

Can I see it before I buy?

You already are — this whole site is the product, every page and panel of it, with no demo call and no gated pricing. Worth knowing before you decide: the file lands on your computer the moment you pay, so a sale is final once it downloads. A file cannot be un-downloaded. That is exactly why we would rather answer questions first — write to [email protected] with anything you are unsure about and you will get a straight answer, including “no, it doesn’t do that.”

09

Which browser should I open it in?

Chrome or Edge for the full thing. It runs in Safari and Firefox too, with one exception: the Sync Folder — the automatic backup every ten minutes to iCloud, Drive, or Dropbox — needs a browser API only Chromium has. In Safari and Firefox you export your backup by hand instead. Everything else is identical.

10

Can I run it on two computers?

Yes — it’s a file, not a licensed seat. Copy it to the laptop, or point both machines at the same sync folder. Just don’t work in both at once: each copy keeps its own records, so whichever saved last is the one you keep.

11

Does any of my data reach you?

No — there is no account and no server to send it to. Exactly two things reach the internet, and neither carries your data: live exchange rates, which send currency codes only and are skipped entirely if you work in one currency; and the small brand logos on the Expenses page, fetched from Google’s public favicon service for a fixed built-in list of well-known services — it sends a public domain like “figma.com” and never anything you type, no amounts and no names. AI, if your browser has it, runs on your machine. Every export and share page is self-contained, with the numbers baked in and no link back to your data.

Buy it once. Run it quietly. Own it forever.

One file. Every number you’ve been meaning to look at, in one clear place.
