Orty Log — a CRM for freelance video editors.
Most CRMs are built for sales teams with quotas. Log is built for a solo editor juggling twenty creator conversations: who you contacted, what they replied, what they can pay, and who's waiting on your follow-up right now.
It lives inside the Orty app, on your machine — every rating you run files itself into the pipeline automatically.
The 7-stage pipeline, mapped to real editing deals
New → Contacted → Replied → Sample Sent → Negotiating → Booked → Closed. Drag or one-click leads between stages as conversations move, and the board always answers the freelancer's two hardest questions: who am I waiting on, and what should I touch today?
Coming from a spreadsheet? Orty auto-migrates your CSV on first run — name, handle, status, and notes columns are matched for you.
What each lead remembers
- Score history — the original 1–10 fit rating and its reasoning sit beside the outcome forever.
- Notes — conversation context that future-you needs mid-negotiation.
- Budget field — what they signaled versus what you quoted — the most valuable column a freelancer keeps.
- Follow-up dates — "bump Friday" becomes a tracked commitment instead of a mental tab.
Insights computed from your own pipeline
Personal Insights turns your log into honest numbers locally: reply rate per niche, booking rate per score band, and score trends over time. Plain Python reading your own data — no AI, no cloud round-trip, works offline.
