Best fit
Best for: Tech-savvy consultants who want a polished, design-forward portfolio site without WordPress maintenance.
Why pick it: Excellent performance scores and built-in SEO features. Animations and interactions are native, not bolted on. Templates for professional services are polished and modern.
Watch for: If you need a simple one-page landing page, Carrd is cheaper and faster. If you need a blog-heavy content site, WordPress still offers more flexibility.
Best for: Consultants billing by the hour who need accurate time records for invoicing and profitability analysis.
Why pick it: One-click timer and automatic tracking mean you actually use it. Most time tracking tools fail because they are too tedious — Toggl is the exception.
Watch for: If you bill fixed-fee only and never need to analyze where your hours go, skip it. Bonsai includes basic time tracking if you already use it.
