Never Miss Another Client Meeting

Deadlines and meetings slip through the cracks when they live in a calendar you barely check. Color-coded urgency fixes that.

You told the client you'd have it ready by Thursday. It's now Friday morning and you just remembered. We've all been there.

Calendar apps are great if you check them. But freelancers who live in their workspace need deadlines to show up where they're already looking.

Deadlines on your dashboard

When you create an agenda entry in Backlog, it shows up in the "Upcoming" panel on your dashboard — the first thing you see when you open the app.

Each deadline is color-coded:

  • Red — overdue. You missed it. Fix it now.
  • Amber — due today. Better get on it.
  • Green — coming up. You're ahead.

No notifications to dismiss, no calendar to check. Just open Backlog and you see what's coming.

Per-client deadlines too

Open any client profile and you'll see their upcoming deadlines in a dedicated panel. Before a client call, take one glance and you know exactly what's due for them.

This is what Backlog does.

One workspace for your entire freelance business. Join the waitlist.
