Solar

Built for teams that serve clients

Different workflows, same platform. Here's how teams like yours use Solar.

Development Agencies

Ship sprints. Track bugs. Give clients visibility.

Your team lives in sprints. Your clients want to know what's shipping. Solar bridges the gap with a board your engineers love and a portal that keeps stakeholders out of Slack.

Queue-based triage. Hour bucket billing.

Multiple clients, different SLAs, prepaid hours. Solar's queues segment by team, hour buckets track usage, and the client portal lets clients submit tickets and see their hours.
