Summarize with AI

Your Agency CRM database at a glance

This template centralizes client relationships, sales deals, ongoing projects, and daily tasks in one collaborative system.

Key tables link your team members to client accounts, active deals, and project tasks, ensuring full visibility across every stage of delivery without manual copy-pasting.

Built-in AI fields automatically research client websites to draft company descriptions, generate executive project summaries, and categorize incoming tasks.

When a client pipeline outgrows a shared Google Sheet

Google Sheets makes collaboration simple, but managing an agency pipeline across disconnected tabs quickly exposes its limits. When everyone has access to every row, client data is vulnerable, formulas break during custom sorts, and free-text cells make tracking deal amounts and project timelines unreliable.

What a structured database changes

In a structured database, every column enforces strict data types so deadlines stay dates, proposal values stay currency, and account managers stay linked to their accounts.

Instead of maintaining separate tabs that easily break, tables connect natively so a project automatically links to its client and corresponding deal.

This is exactly what Softr Databases are designed for: keeping your agency records clean, relational, and ready to scale. While you can connect an existing Google Sheet to Softr as an external data source, a dedicated database gives you the reliable foundation needed for production-ready workflows.

What you can do with this template

Track prospective leads through deal stages to closed-won revenue, instantly connecting won accounts to live project deliverables.

Built-in Database AI agents handle routine admin tasks by scraping company descriptions from client URLs, generating client-ready executive summaries from raw project notes, and categorizing tasks into development, design, or copywriting automatically.

Your entire team gains clear visibility into deadlines, client contacts, and assigned deliverables from day one.
