A portal your clients will actually use
Most client portals require a login your clients forget, an app they won't download, and a setup process that never gets done. Ressio's magic link removes all of it.
Magic link access — tap and you're in
Clients don't need an account, a password, or an app. You send a notification — they tap the link — they're in their portal. It works on any device, any browser, every time. One builder's client who had dementia was using it successfully within the first week.
- No account required — no password to set or forget
- Works on any device and any browser
- Access to everything you've shared — schedule, logs, docs, invoices
- You control exactly what each client can see

- Daily logs set to public appear in the client portal automatically
- Private notes and internal files stay hidden from clients
- Clients can message on tasks they're assigned to
