The project

Context
Studio operations are often split between client conversations, projects, documents and billing tools.
My role
Product design and development by NUAGEUXSTUDIO, from the studio workspace to the client portal.
Deliverables
Client and project management, documents, billing, appointments and a client portal.

The Need

Project information is often scattered across different tools: client conversations, files, deadlines, quotes, invoices and meetings. This fragmentation makes work harder to track and the experience less seamless for both the studio and its clients.

Aube grew from this observation. The goal was to create one place to manage studio operations and give clients simple access to the information that concerns them.

A Unified Workspace

We evolved Aube from a tool shaped around one studio’s needs into a platform structured around the real workflows of a creative business.

Clients, projects, operations and documents are organized so related information is easy to find. From a project, a studio can get to its client, files, billing records and related requests without working through a succession of menus.

Tools for Everyday Work

  • Client and project management to centralize information, stages and work tracking.
  • Billing to create and track quotes, invoices and contracts.
  • Documents to organize and share files linked to clients and projects.
  • Calendar to manage availability and appointments.
  • Operations to track requests and tickets related to projects.
  • Client portal to review documents, follow project progress and find useful information.

Designed for Both Sides

Aube goes beyond the studio’s internal interface. The client portal gives each client a dedicated way to access relevant conversations and documents, with an experience that feels consistent with the studio workspace.

This separation makes information easier to find and brings more clarity to every interaction throughout a project.

Built to Evolve

Aube is developed by NUAGEUXSTUDIO, but designed to serve more than one studio. Its evolution lays the groundwork for separate workspaces, so each organization can manage its own clients, projects and documents.

Outcome & next steps

The Result

Aube turns scattered studio operations into one unified workspace. The product continues to evolve with one priority: make day-to-day management clearer for studios and collaboration simpler for their clients.

Closed beta. The product is being developed and validated around studio workflows.
