MileStage – Freelance project tracking with built-in payment gates

Summary: MileStage enables freelancers to manage projects by dividing work into stages that require payment before proceeding. It automates reminders, locks stages until payment, and eliminates transaction fees, streamlining milestone payment tracking.

What it does

MileStage breaks projects into payment-locked stages where clients must pay to unlock the next phase. It sends automated reminders and prevents scope creep by enforcing payment gates.

Who it's for

Freelancers seeking to secure timely payments and maintain leverage throughout project delivery.

Why it matters

It addresses delayed payments by restructuring projects to require upfront payment per stage, reducing the need for follow-ups and protecting freelancers from unpaid work.
