A note from the founder
Why I built this
Clients don't buy hours. They buy progress. The artifacts we have — timesheets, GitHub histories, weekly status notes — are built for us, not for them.
Timesheets prove you were there. GitHub proves you committed. Neither answers the question a client actually has: what changed this week, and what does it mean for the work they hired you to do?
Stop proving hours. Show what you shipped.
I got tired of translating a week of pull requests into an email that still sounded like an internal changelog. ShipRecap is the layer I wanted in between: take the work you already shipped, write it in language a client can use, let you edit it, then publish a page you can send.
It is early, but the product is already useful end-to-end: GitHub to draft to edit to a shareable report, with PDF, passwords, link expiry, and Founding tools like your branding and scheduled drafts. Workspaces, client email delivery, custom domains, and GitLab are still ahead — and labeled that way. Founding members are the people shaping what comes next, and they keep the $9 founding price while their subscription stays active.
If that is how you already work with clients, I would like you in.
