Why switch from Workel to Agencly
Workel handles projects, chat, and files in one place: but it does not handle the business side of an agency. No billing, no contracts, no client portal. Agencly covers the full client lifecycle from project delivery to paid invoice.
Agency Billing Built In
Workel has no invoicing, no contracts, and no finance dashboard. Agencly drafts, sends, and tracks invoices alongside delivery work, with a cash flow and category breakdown dashboard on every plan.
Client Portal Included
Workel gives teams a workspace but not a client-facing portal. Agencly includes a branded portal per client: projects, invoices, contracts, meetings, and shared documents in one place.
Contracts and E-Signatures
Workel has no proposal or contract tooling. Agencly sends proposals with built-in e-signatures, and the signed scope stays one click from the project it started.
Flat Price, Not Per-Seat
Workel charges $8-$15 per user per month: a 5-person team on Max is $75/mo. Agencly's plans include your whole team from $19/mo, with no per-seat multiplication.
Time Tracking Linked to Billing
Workel has no time tracking feature. Agencly tracks time by project and client, and tracked hours live alongside invoices so billable time is never stranded.
AI Agents Built In
Agencly connects scoped AI agents through MCP so your assistant tools can act on live workspace data. Workel's AI assistant is gated behind the Team plan ($99/mo) and handles only task creation and messages.
