For independents & freelancers
Your clients, your gate, your name on the work.
The same governed client work agencies run — sized to a desk of one. Every client you serve keeps its own context, drafts come from that history, and nothing ships until you've called it.
The short answer
Tempera keeps every client in its own lane — their guidelines, their approved and rejected work, their voice — and drafts from that, never from a blank page. You stay the reviewer: working alone, you approve your own work; the moment a second person joins, maker-and-checker separation switches back on by itself.
Solo is $24 per active client per month ($20 on annual) — and the Free tier runs one client, no card.

Five moments every independent knows — and the one existing capability that answers each.
When the brief lands
Structured intake
Paste the client's email or notes and Tempera shapes them into a real brief — objective, audience, mandatories — instead of a chat prompt you'll never find again.
When you draft
The per-client agent
Each client's agent drafts options from that client's own approved and rejected history, so the first draft already sounds like them — not like everyone's AI.
When you check your own work
The sole-operator gate
Every output still lands in review. While you work alone, the platform lets you approve your own work — honestly, as a recorded verdict, not a skipped step — and each verdict trains the agent.
When the client wants changes
Feedback with reasons
A rejection is captured with its reason and becomes context. The pattern the client hated never comes back; the one they loved does.
When it ships
Real files
Copy, documents, decks, social posts, and layered graphics export as files your client's production chain accepts — no platform lock-in on the way out.

What the Solo desk ships
2 × $24 = $48
The maths, done
Two retained clients: 2 × $24 = $48 a month ($40 on annual). A third client with no AI work that month adds $0 — dormant clients never bill. Solo covers up to 3 active clients a month; past that, Starter.
Quick answers
All questions- Can I really approve my own work?
- Yes — while you're the only active user. The review step still runs and records your verdict; when a second user becomes active, the server re-enables whoever-ran-it-can't-approve-it automatically.
- What does it cost me?
- Solo is $24 per active client per month ($20 on annual) — a client with no AI work that month costs nothing. The Free tier runs one client so you can evaluate with no card.
- What happens when I grow?
- Add people and upgrade to Starter or Studio — same installation, same client history, and the review gate tightens to maker-and-checker on its own.
- Do I need to move every client at once?
- No. Start with one client, keep the rest ready in the same workspace, and pay only for lanes that run AI work in that month.
- Can clients review from their phones?
- Yes. Client reviewers use free seats, see only the work you scope to them, and return a recorded verdict from iOS or Android.
