What Plutio is
Plutio is a business platform for freelancers, agencies, and small teams that brings client and project management, billing, and workflows together. Its tools cover projects, tasks, time tracking, invoices, proposals, contracts, scheduling, forms, files, and client portals. Plutio Pal can take actions in the workspace, with monthly AI credits varying by plan. Integrations include Stripe, PayPal, Square, Google Calendar, QuickBooks Online, Xero, Slack, Gmail, Google Drive, Dropbox, Zapier, and Make. They are included in every plan, though connected third-party services may charge fees. Plans start with Core at $19 a month, limited to 9 active clients; Pro is $49 a month, and Max is $199 a month. Each plan has a 7-day full-access trial without a credit card. Afterward, a limited free account retains existing data but cannot create projects or send invoices.
