The gravity of managing client work

Your team juggles tools, your clients have no visibility, and hours disappear into spreadsheets. There's a better orbit.

Too many tools

Jira for tasks, Toggl for time, Notion for docs, email for clients.

Solar unifies project management, time tracking, docs, and client access in one system.

Clients can't see progress

Screenshots in Slack. Weekly email updates. 'Can you send me a status report?'

The built-in client portal gives clients real-time visibility under your brand.

Billing is a separate nightmare

Manual timesheets. No hour tracking. 'Wait, how many hours did we promise them?'

Prepaid hour buckets, per-issue time logging, and client-visible timesheets. Built in.

BOARD

Your entire workflow in one view

Drag-and-drop kanban with custom columns, swimlanes by epic, assignee, priority, or queue. Set WIP limits, customize card density, and get live updates as your team moves work forward.

  • Custom column mapping with status sync
  • Swimlane grouping — epic, assignee, priority, type, queue
  • WIP limits with visual indicators
  • Compact, normal, and detailed card modes
  • Real-time collaboration with live toggle

CLIENT PORTAL

A branded portal your clients actually use

Your clients log in under your logo and colors. They submit tickets, track hours, view epics, and browse your knowledge base — all without ever seeing our name. Per-project visibility controls let you show exactly what each client should see.

  • Custom branding — logo, colors, favicon per org
  • Ticket submission with attachments
  • Real-time hour bucket visibility
  • Knowledge base and onboarding checklists
  • Client invite via email or join code
TIME TRACKING

Time tracking that connects to billing

Log time per-issue, run a stopwatch, or enter hours manually. Set up prepaid hour buckets with expiration dates. Clients see their usage in the portal. No more spreadsheet reconciliation.

  • Per-issue time logging with descriptions
  • Prepaid hour buckets with expiration
  • Stopwatch timer with save dialog
  • Project-level timesheets with date filtering
  • Client-visible time entries in the portal

MCP

AI agents as first-class crew members

Every project gets an MCP endpoint. Claude, Cursor, and other AI agents connect directly — creating tickets, updating statuses, managing epics, searching your knowledge base. Scoped permissions keep everything secure.

  • Token-based auth with read-only or full access
  • 30+ tools: issues, epics, queues, KB, comments
  • Batch operations for bulk ticket creation
  • Rate limiting and request analytics
  • All actions logged in the activity feed
KNOWLEDGE BASE

Internal docs and client guides, one system

Hierarchical sections, rich markdown articles, full-text search, and revision history. Control which articles clients can see in their portal. Link docs to issues and epics for full traceability.

  • Nested sections with drag-and-drop ordering
  • Markdown editor with revision history
  • Per-article client visibility toggles
  • Full-text search across all articles
  • Link articles to issues, epics, and other articles

  • Connect to Slack, Zapier, Make, n8n, or custom APIs
  • Organization-level plans and member management

Teams in orbit

From two-person studios to 50-seat agencies, teams choose Solar to run client work.

We replaced Jira, Toggl, and a shared Google Sheet with Solar. Our clients actually log in to the portal now — that alone was worth the switch.
SC

Sarah Chen

COO, Orbit Digital

The MCP integration is unreal. Our engineering team uses Claude to triage the backlog every morning. It's like having an extra PM that never sleeps.
MR

Marcus Reid

CTO, Starpoint Dev

White-labeling was the deciding factor. Our clients think it's our own platform. The hour bucket visibility stopped 90% of 'how many hours do we have left?' emails.
