Klynt vs Bonsai

Klynt vs Bonsai
The one that doesn't charge you more for growing.

Bonsai started as a freelancer tool. Then it added banking. Then taxes. Then per user pricing. At some point it stopped being built for you and started being built for the version of you that has 15 employees. Klynt stayed focused.

Why designers leave Bonsai

It's not that Bonsai is bad. It's that it grew in a direction you didn't.

1

The price goes up every time you grow.

Bonsai's pricing penalizes growth. Add a collaborator, remove their branding, use any real feature and the price jumps. Klynt has a flat rate Pro plan. No per user charges. No surprise fees at the end of the month.

2

You don't need a bank. You need a portal.

Bonsai added banking, taxes, and accounting over the years. If you just want a clean place to share design work, track milestones, and send invoices, most of Bonsai is stuff you scroll past. Klynt only has what you use.

3

Your client portal should match your design work.

You're a designer. The thing your clients interact with should look like you designed it. Klynt's portals are built with modern aesthetics that match the quality of the work you're delivering inside them.
