Client reports behind a password, not a portal
Consultants and agencies keep rediscovering the same trade-off: PDFs look dated and break on phones, while full client portals are overkill for a monthly report. What you actually want is a web page only the client can open.
htmldrop Pro adds a password to any hosted page. You send one link and one password; the client sees a clean, mobile-friendly report with no account creation and no attachment scanning.
Per-page passwords
Each artifact gets its own password, so client A can never stumble into client B's numbers. Changing a password instantly revokes existing access.
Interactive, not static
Because it's real HTML, your reports can include live charts, sortable tables, and embedded videos rather than flattened screenshots.
Quiet updates
Fixed a typo after sending? Update the HTML at the same URL. The client's link just shows the corrected version.
Common questions
- How secure is the password gate?
- Passwords are bcrypt-hashed and access tokens are HMAC-signed, HttpOnly cookies. Changing the password invalidates all previously granted access.
- Can I remove the password later?
- Yes, protection can be added or removed per page at any time from the dashboard or API.
- Do clients need to install anything?
- No. The password prompt and the report are normal web pages that work in any browser.
