Run the studio. Not the spreadsheets.
Accelo is the project management platform purpose-built for architecture firms — connecting proposals, project plans, time tracking, retainers and billing in a single source of truth, so principals know exactly where every project stands and where margin is leaking.

The architect's operations problem
Beautiful drawings. Ugly back office.
Architecture firms run on creativity, but they get paid on operations. Accelo replaces the patchwork of timesheets, spreadsheets and email threads with one operating system for the studio.
- Hours buried in timesheets nobody fills out on Friday
- Fee proposals built from scratch in Word, every time
- Project margin known six weeks after the fact
- Billing chases between PMs, accounts and partners
- Time captured automatically against tasks and stages
- Reusable proposal templates, signed and converted to projects
- Live margin, WIP and burn dashboards by project & client
- Retainers and stage invoices triggered by progress, not memory
One platform · End-to-end
From first sketch to final invoice.
Accelo replaces a half-dozen disconnected tools with one connected system, so your team stops re-entering the same project information five times.
01 — Sales
Proposals & CRM
Build fee proposals from reusable phase templates, track them through signature, and convert won work into a fully scoped project in one click.
02 — Delivery
Project Plans
Plan by phase, drawing set or RIBA stage. Allocate the right architect, technician or director against real capacity — not optimism.
03 — Time
Effortless Time Tracking
Passive timers, calendar sync and one-tap mobile entries mean billable hours actually get captured — without nagging the team.
04 — Money
Retainers & Billing
Trigger invoices from stage completion, retainer cycles or fixed milestones. Sync to Xero or QuickBooks. No more billing leakage.
05 — Insight
Margin Intelligence
Live dashboards show project burn, write-offs, utilization and effective rate by client — so you fix problems while there's still time.
06 — Connect
200+ Integrations
Slack, Outlook, Gmail, Google Workspace, Xero, QuickBooks, MYOB, Stripe and a public API to plug into the rest of your stack.
