# What your client sees. A three-tab proposal that closes.

Your client opens one link and gets a focused, modern proposal in your brand. It has three tabs and a persistent discussion. Here is what each part does and how to set it up.

## Three tabs

-   **Experience**: a full-screen, working mock of what you are proposing to build. It feels like a real product, not a screenshot.
-   **Proposal**: the cover, your written sections, and any files.
-   **Costing**: the investment breakdown, the decision buttons (Accept, Request changes, Decline), and checkout.

A **Discussion** drawer slides over any tab, so the client can ask a question without leaving the page. Your replies show your brand name, never Kensink.

## The Experience tab

Each proposal has its own space to host a multi-file static mock: an interactive prototype of the thing you are selling. You upload it in the editor as a set of files or a single zip, and it is served with page navigation so the client can click around. Tools like Claude's design exports work directly.

By default the experience is confidential and only the proposal's verified viewers can open it. You can flip a single toggle to make it **public**: a shareable, no-login link you can drop into an email or a chat. The written proposal itself stays private either way.

## The Costing tab

In the editor you list the work one component per line, with an optional “market value” anchor and your actual price. The client sees a clean breakdown with a total. Set an optional **deposit** percentage and the client gets two buttons:

-   **Pay the deposit** to get started.
-   **Pay in full**.

Checkout runs on your Stripe. The payment is confirmed the moment the client returns from Stripe, recorded against the proposal, and your team is notified.

## The decision

The same tab carries the decision. The client can Accept and proceed, Request changes with a note, or Decline. You are notified instantly, and the proposal records who decided and when.

## It is all yours

Accent colour, button labels, the meeting link, the sender on emails, the payment account, and the name on discussion replies all come from your workspace. You can also override the accent and a couple of labels per proposal. The client experiences one coherent brand: yours.

Want the experience to bypass the login gate for a quick share? Open the proposal's Experience card and switch it to Public. Flip it back to Confidential at any time.
