First comment (the maker comment — this matters most on PH)
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Retainer because every CRM I tried was a database I had to remember to check. It never told me a retainer was ending in six weeks, or that my best client had gone quiet since spring. That's exactly when consultants lose money — silently.
Retainer is the missing layer. It watches seven things that actually cost you revenue:
🔄 A renewal ending within 60 days with nothing lined up
🌡️ An important relationship gone quiet — ranked by how much it's worth, not just how long it's been
📄 A proposal you sent that's stalled
💸 An invoice that's overdue
⏱️ Out-of-scope hours you logged but never billed
🔁 A deal you lost on timing whose recheck date has arrived
Every morning it turns those into one Today list, ranked. Monday, you get a one-email digest of the week ahead.
Setup is ~10 minutes: connect Google Calendar (read-only — event times, titles, invitees, nothing more), and Retainer drafts your client list from your meeting history. No empty-database phase to survive.
It's free during beta — no card, no catch. I'd rather have your feedback than your credit card. Beta users get notice before any pricing, and a better price than anyone who shows up later.
Built for independent consultants and small firms running retainers and project work. It's single-user today.
I'll be here all day — tell me what your current CRM keeps forgetting. 🙏
