Everything your agency needs

From first enquiry to final invoice — Sparky Projects runs the whole trip.

Sparky Projects overview

Projects & Clients

Clients

A lightweight client directory to attach projects to — free on every plan, including solo Lite.

Projects, Every Billing Mode

Fixed-price, time & material, retainer, or purely internal — pick per project, in whatever currency your client pays in.

Learn more

Fixed-price tracks a budget. Time & material and retainer (Plus/Max) track an hourly rate or a monthly hour allowance. Every project carries its own currency, and reports roll everything back up to your organization's base currency.

Milestones

Dated checkpoints with no assignee or time tracking — contract sign-off, phase gate, launch date. Free on every tier.

Tasks & Time

Kanban Board

To Do / In Progress / Done, org-customizable statuses, priority, and a dual-purpose estimate field — story points for Agile, hours or days for Waterfall/PMP.

Task Dependencies

Mark a task as blocked by another — Plus/Max.

Time Tracking — 3 Ways

Manual entry, start/stop timer, or Pomodoro sessions — free on every tier, logged against a project or a specific task.

Timesheets

Weekly submission and manager approval across the team — Plus/Max.

Planning & Reporting

Sprints / Phases

Group tasks into a time-boxed sprint (Agile) or phase (Waterfall/PMP) — Plus/Max, meaningless in a 1-seat Lite org.

Timeline / Gantt View

A month-scale view tying task due dates, sprint/phase windows, and milestones together on one timeline — Plus/Max.

Learn more

Task bars are colored by status, milestones show as flags, and hovering a task shows what it's blocked by — the one place scheduling data that already exists elsewhere in the app becomes visible at a glance.

Reports

Workload by teammate, sprint/phase completion, retainer utilization, and budget tracking — Max.

AI

AI Project Health Digest

A plain-English summary of how your projects are tracking — active count, overdue tasks, budget burn — Plus/Max.

AI Risk Analysis

Scans open tasks and dependencies to flag scheduling risk before it becomes a missed deadline — Max.

SparkyIQ

A conversational assistant that can answer questions about your own data — coming soon.

Platform

Team & Roles

Invite teammates and assign tasks — Plus/Max (Lite is solo, one seat).

Sync Clients from Sparky Contacts

Pull a baseline import of contacts as clients instead of re-entering them — Plus/Max.

Inbox

Every conversation — contact and support forms — arrives as a ticket you can reply to, right inside the app.

Cross-Product Billing

Billable time flows straight into Sparky Invoices as a ready-made line item — no re-keying hours into an invoice.
