Features

Why architecture firms pick Melororium
Budget alerts before a phase goes over
Budget Guardian flags a project when spend crosses your threshold, before it becomes a hard conversation with the client.
Drawing revisions stored with version history
Files keep their history, so a superseded revision is never the one that gets sent by mistake.
Fee proposals a client can sign online
Send a proposal for a new project and get it approved without a separate document tool.
A live status page clients can check themselves
Share project progress through a public status page, so a client stops emailing to ask where things stand.
Billable hours logged per project, not reconstructed
Timers run against tasks, so hours are recorded as the work happens.
Clients and consultants join as guests
Bring in an outside consultant or client to review a phase without adding them to your user count.
Deadline alerts land inside the task
A phase deadline or budget threshold notifies the right person without a separate check-in meeting.
Flat-fee pricing
One price, from a small studio to a full office
Plans run from $29 a month for 4 people to $119 a month for up to 25 people, with 3GB to 13GB of storage. The Agency plan at $59 a month covers most firms up to 15 people, with Budget Guardian and Smart Templates included.
