A project in Stinela: its phases from Discovery to Installation, open tasks, rooms, proposals, contracts and the project team on one page.

Sound familiar?

Re-typing dimensions, finishes and prices from vendor websites into a spreadsheet.

Building purchase orders in Word, working out the tax, then hunting for the rep's email.

Ten live projects and no single place that shows what's due across all of them.

Client and vendor emails scattered across inboxes, and files in three different folders.

None of it is design, and all of it lands on you.

One place instead of six

Most studios run on six or eight tools that don't talk to each other. Stinela is one interior design platform for the whole job.

How it works

One project, start to finish

  1. 1

    Win the work

    Track opportunities on your own board, then send a branded proposal with fees, options and a payment schedule.

  2. 2

    Specify

    Paste a vendor link. Stinela reads the page and drafts the product for you to check and save to your library.

  3. 3

    Order

    Turn approved items into purchase orders with provincial tax worked out, and email them to the vendor from Stinela.

  4. 4

    Deliver

    Run tasks across every project and keep client and vendor conversations next to the work.

Features

Interior design project management software, built around the paperwork

Product capture from any vendor link

Paste a link, or the page text. Stinela reads dimensions, price, finishes, SKU, materials, lead time and images into a draft. Nothing enters your library until you've reviewed it.

  • Works with any vendor website
  • Save it as a new product, or as a variant of one you have
  • One shared library for the whole studio

Spec sheets and spec books

Client selection sheets, trade spec sheets and schedules, issued as branded PDFs. Bind them into a spec book with a cover, contents, sections by room or phase, and the vendor's cut sheets included.

  • Choose which fields each audience sees
  • Every issue is kept, so you know what was sent
  • Your logo, colours and fonts throughout

Purchase orders, done in minutes

Build a PO from approved items. GST, HST, PST or QST is calculated for the province. Finalize it to lock and number it, then send the PDF to the vendor without leaving Stinela.

  • Sequential numbers that are never reused
  • Sent orders are locked, so the record stays true
  • Track each order from sent to acknowledged

Proposals and contracts

Versioned proposals with fees, options and payment schedules, and a side-by-side compare of any two versions. Contracts fill your own Word templates and are tracked until the signed copy is filed.

  • Issue a branded PDF and email it from Stinela
  • See exactly what changed between versions
  • Record which option the client chose

Pipeline and forecast

See every opportunity by stage on boards you set up yourself, and the value you can expect by month.

  • Notes, follow-ups and people on every opportunity
  • Turn a won opportunity into a project

Tasks and conversations

Tasks across all projects in a list or on a board. Project conversations where clients and vendors reply by email or in a simple portal with your branding. No new app for them to learn.

  • Assign, set due dates and comment
  • Replies and attachments land in the right project

Built for Canadian studios. Provincial tax worked out on every purchase order, whether GST, HST, PST or QST. Built in Vancouver for how Canadian studios actually buy.

Your brand on everything

Your logo, colours and fonts on every PDF and every email. Clients see your studio, not ours.

Questions designers ask

Is it free?

Yes. Stinela is free until March 2027, with unlimited seats for your whole team and no credit card required.

Do my clients need an account?

No. They reply by email, or open your branded portal with a one-time code sent to their email.

Does it work with my vendors?

With any vendor that has a product page. Paste the link, or the page text, and Stinela drafts the product for you to check.

Is the AI making decisions for me?

No. It drafts the product details from the vendor's page. You check and approve them before anything is saved.

Can my team use it?

Yes. Invite teammates as admins, designers, viewers or an orders contact, and set who can open each project.

Can clients sign contracts in Stinela?

Contracts are filled from your own Word templates and signed with the e-signature tool you already use. Stinela keeps the signed copy with the project.

Can I get my data out?

Yes. Export everything at any time.

Is it only for Canada?

No. Studios anywhere can use it. Purchase orders work out Canadian provincial tax automatically, which is why Canadian studios get the most from it today.

Give your next project one home.
