UpLabs in one line
UpLabs is web software that an architecture or interior design practice uses to run the studio: its projects and stages, the hours the team puts in, its people, the invoices it raises and the GST on them.
UpLabs is a software product. It is not a design, branding or creative agency, and it does not take on design work for clients.
Who it is for
- Architecture firms in India, from a founder working alone to practices of around fifty people.
- Interior design studios that run several sites at once.
- Principals who want to see money, projects and people in one place instead of across spreadsheets and WhatsApp.
What it does
| Area | What you do in UpLabs |
|---|---|
| Projects | Phases, stages, tasks and sub-tasks for each project |
| Time | Timesheets against projects and stages |
| People | Team members, leave and payroll records |
| Invoicing | Stage-based invoices with Indian tax fields |
| GST | Monthly GST tracker to share with your CA |
| Clients | A client portal for progress, approvals and invoices |
| Dashboard | One screen for money, projects, people and time |
Your CA files your GST return. UpLabs does not connect to the GST portal or file returns.
Pricing and who makes it
Plans run from ₹499 to ₹5,999 a month, excluding GST, with a two-month free trial on Starter. Every plan includes every feature; plans differ only by projects, active members and storage.
UpLabs is built by The Update LLP in Mysuru, Karnataka, by people who have run design practices themselves.
