The design business admin overwhelm is real

Client communication scattered across email, text, WhatsApp, and Houzz messages
Project timelines and approval workflows managed in spreadsheets and email chains
Invoicing and retainer tracking handled in a completely separate accounting tool
Vendor orders and trade purchases difficult to track across multiple suppliers
Spending evenings creating proposals instead of designing
New leads from referrals and portfolio views going cold while you manage active projects

A typical designer's week

Monday - Spend morning replying to client emails about fabric selections and approval requests...

Tuesday - Switch between Houzz messages, email, and texts trying to coordinate with three vendors...

Wednesday - Open QuickBooks to send invoices, then Studio Designer for procurement tracking...

Thursday - New consultation request came in last week via website - just now finding it in spam...

Friday - Client calls asking for project status update, scramble to compile info from five tools...

Weekend - Spend Sunday evening writing a proposal for a new client instead of resting...

Another week gone. More admin than actual design work.

Interior Designer FAQ

How does Dewx help interior designers manage client communication?

Dewx gives you a unified inbox where every client conversation lives - whether it came via email, WhatsApp, text, or your website. Each client has a single profile showing their complete communication history, project status, approvals, and invoices. Your team can pick up any conversation where it left off, and nothing gets buried in separate email threads.

Can I manage project timelines and milestones in Dewx?

Yes. OPS Hub lets you create project timelines with milestones, deliverables, and deadlines. Each milestone can trigger automatic client updates, invoice generation, or follow-up tasks. Unlike spreadsheets, your timelines are connected to client communication so approvals and feedback are tracked in context.

How does Dewx compare to Houzz or Studio Designer?

Houzz is primarily a marketplace and inspiration platform, while Studio Designer focuses on procurement. Neither provides a unified client inbox, AI-powered communication, or a full business CRM. Dewx combines your client inbox, project pipeline, invoicing, and AI assistant into one platform designed for how interior design businesses actually operate.

Can I track vendor orders and trade purchases?

OPS Hub lets you manage vendor relationships alongside client projects. Track orders, link vendor communication to specific projects, and manage purchase timelines. When a vendor sends an update via email, it appears in the project context alongside client communication so you always know where things stand.

How does the AI assistant help with design business tasks?

Dew AI can draft project proposals based on your consultation notes, send professional project updates to clients at each milestone, follow up with cold leads from your portfolio inquiries, send payment reminders for retainers and milestones, and help compile project summaries. It learns your professional tone and handles routine communication so you can focus on creative work.
