Re: Homepage — a few more tweaks

$0 recovered this cycle

You've had this exact conversation before.

Scope creep almost never arrives as one big request. It arrives as a dozen small ones — each too minor to bring up on its own.

01

The message

“Could you also just tweak the hero section while you're in there? Shouldn't take long.”

02

What you tell yourself

It's five minutes. Not worth another invoice line. We'll keep the relationship easy.

03

What actually happens

That's the eighth “quick thing” this month, across four clients. None of them got billed.

The problem was never one request. It's the invisible accumulation of unbilled work across every client, every week.

Small requests aren't actually small.

An illustrative example — the kind of month most agencies would recognize.

“Quick” extra requests this month
4
Average time each one actually takes
× 1.5 hrs
Your billable rate
× $75/hr
Unbilled work, one month$450
MarginFlow, one month$19

Illustrative example, not a guaranteed outcome — actual unbilled work depends on your rates, your clients, and how many of these requests you're already catching today.

Three steps. No workflow change.

You already have Gmail and a signed contract. There's nothing new to adopt.

01

Upload your contract

PDF, Word, or plain text. MarginFlow reads the deliverables, limits, revisions, and timeline — the terms that define scope.

02

Connect Gmail

Read-only. MarginFlow never sends on your behalf, and never will — it only reads.

03

Get alerted before you do free work

Every incoming client request is checked against the contract. Outside-scope requests surface with evidence, before your team starts building.

Explainable, not a black box.

MarginFlow never says “this is out of scope” without showing why — the email, the contract clause, and the reasoning that connects them. Every alert is reviewable before it ever reaches a client.

  • Confidence scores shown, never hidden
  • You approve every alert before anything happens
  • Gmail access is permanently read-only

Illustrative example — Northwind Studios and Acme are fictional, used to show how a real alert is built.

“Loving where this landed. Could you also make these four changes to the homepage while you're in there?”

Relevant contract clause

“Project includes up to 3 rounds of revisions on the homepage design.”

Northwind Studios → AcmeOutside Scope
61% confidence

Contract includes 3 revision rounds; email history shows this is the 4th round requested.

Read-only, by design.

MarginFlow needs to see your contracts and your inbox to work. Here's exactly what that access does — and doesn't — allow.

Is my Gmail safe?

MarginFlow reads incoming client emails to check them against your contract. It does not have permission to send, draft, or delete anything.

Does MarginFlow email my clients?

Never automatically. Change-order drafts are for your review only — nothing reaches a client unless you personally send it from your own inbox.

Can it get the classification wrong?

Every alert shows its confidence score and the evidence behind it, so low-confidence calls are easy to spot and dismiss before you act on them.

Do I stay in control?

You approve, ignore, or edit every alert. Gmail access can be revoked at any time from Settings — disconnecting stops all future reads immediately.

Your project management tool tracks the work.
MarginFlow checks whether the work was in the contract.

Asana, ClickUp, and Notion are good at showing what your team is building. None of them know what was actually agreed with the client — so none of them can tell you when a request has drifted past it. Most agencies don't have a system for that at all; they have a spreadsheet, a memory, or nothing.

Simple pricing. Cancel anytime.

Priced to cost less than the first out-of-scope request it catches.
