Build a client portal with AI
A client portal gives customers a place to see their projects and updates. Use Youmake to generate the interface, then connect the authentication and data your workflow requires.
Define what each person can see
List the roles first: customer, team member, and administrator. Decide which projects, messages, or documents each role can read and change. These rules belong in the backend as well as the interface.
Build a small first workflow
Start with sign-in, a project list, and a project detail page. Ask the AI to add status updates and a clear next action for the customer. Add file sharing or billing only after the core workflow works.
Connect your data and authentication
Connect a database such as Supabase and configure authentication. Use sample accounts to test that one customer cannot read another customer’s records. A login screen alone does not establish access control.
Review before inviting clients
Test password recovery, empty states, mobile layouts, permissions, and failed requests. Review generated code and data policies before putting real customer information into the portal.
A sample brief to start with
Build a client portal for a design studio. Customers should see only their projects, current status, and next milestone. Team members can post updates. Use sample data until authentication and permissions are tested.
