Client Portal - Collaborate on Your Farm Design
Review milestones, approve deliverables, and collaborate with your farm designer in one place
Key Features
Browse Milestones
See your project broken into clear milestones with deliverables, timelines, and status at a glance. Always know what is being worked on and what comes next.
Approve Deliverables
Review each milestone submission and approve it or request specific revisions with comments. You stay in control of quality at every step of the process.
View Shared Renders
Your designer shares 3D renders and Finca AI visualizations directly in the portal for easy review. See your farm design come to life before it is finalized.
Real-Time Messaging
Communicate with your designer in context, with messages tied to specific milestones and deliverables. No more searching through email threads for that one comment.
Track Project Progress
A visual timeline shows where your project stands, what is complete, and what is coming next. Stay informed without needing to ask for status updates.
Review & Rate
When your project is complete, leave a review to help other farmers find great designers. Your feedback helps the community and rewards quality work.
How Client Collaboration Works
Working with a farm designer on Fincabout is a structured, transparent process designed to give you confidence at every step. It starts with finding the right designer for your project.
Browse the Designer Directory to find designers who specialize in your type of farm. Filter by specialization, view portfolios, read reviews from other farmers, and compare pricing. When you find someone whose style and experience match your needs, send them an inquiry.
Describe your project in the inquiry form - your farm size, what you are growing, your goals, and any style preferences. The designer reviews your details and responds with questions or a quote. You discuss the scope until both sides are aligned.
Accept the quote and your project workspace is created. The designer sets up milestones - logical phases of the design work, each with clear deliverables. You can see the full plan before work begins, so there are no surprises about what is included.
From there, collaboration happens in the client portal. You review deliverables, provide feedback, approve milestones, and communicate with your designer - all in one place.
What to Expect as a Client
Clear milestones break your project into manageable phases. Instead of waiting weeks for a final design with no visibility, you see progress at each milestone. A typical project might include milestones for initial concept, layout refinement, detail work, and final delivery.
Regular updates keep you informed. Your designer submits deliverables at each milestone - 3D renders, layout plans, plant selections, or whatever the phase calls for. You review these in the portal with full context about what was requested and what was delivered.
Revision opportunities ensure you get what you want. If a milestone deliverable is not quite right, you request revisions with specific comments. The designer updates the work and resubmits. You do not approve until you are satisfied.
Final delivery happens when all milestones are complete and approved. You receive the full design package and can leave a review of your experience. Your designer's portfolio grows, and other farmers benefit from your honest feedback.
