About Whelm

Whelm is a suite of free tools, built specifically for freelancers.

With work-in-progress media reviews, invoicing, contract templates, e-signatures, and project management built into the platform, freelancers no longer need 5 different apps to run their business.

We are the ideal software solution for freelance videographers, motion designers, video editors, audio producers, voice over actors, animators, graphic designers, copywriters, and more. Anyone who needs an all-in-one solution will love the benefits that Whelm provides.

What makes us different or better than the incumbents like Frame .io, HoneyBook, or others?

Whelm's all-in-one solution not only makes it easy to get client feedback, but also manage your entire business from one app, saving you time and money.

Our users save an average of $600+ annually compared to creating paid profiles with 4-5 separate business management and media review softwares.

    "Great tools"

    5 out of 5 stars Posted 2023-09-18

    Pros: Very helpful for collecting feedback from clients, saves me from the awkward video call feedback session. Having access to an invoicing tool as well as contract templates saves me a lot of time as well, so I like that. It's a fairly seamless experience once you're onboarded fully.

    Cons: It seems the company is still pretty small and young, so I there have been some bugs with the growing pains. But they've been really responsive any time I've seen a bug reported.

    Overall: I definitely recommend Whelm for people in the video industry. It's kind of catered to our needs more than the other tools I've used, and their responsiveness is nice. Helps me trust the product will only get better over time.
