17hats Alternative

17hats was built in 2013. OnBrio was built for 2026.

17hats hasn't kept up with modern agency needs — no mobile app, no AI, no real project management, and a complex UI that takes weeks to learn. OnBrio gives you the same core features with a setup time of 30 minutes.

FAQ

Common questions.

17hats has not announced a shutdown. However, the platform has seen minimal feature development over the past several years — no mobile app, no AI features, and a UI that hasn't been significantly redesigned since its launch. If you need a modern, actively developed platform, OnBrio is the right move.
17hats costs $45/mo for a single user. OnBrio Solo is $29/mo, and OnBrio Agency is $69/mo for 5 team seats. For solo operators, OnBrio is $16/mo cheaper. For teams, OnBrio scales without per-seat pricing adding up.
17hats does not have a native mobile app — you access it through a mobile browser, which limits the experience significantly. OnBrio ships a full native mobile app for iOS and Android, so you can review proposals, check project status, and approve invoices from anywhere.
Export your client and workflow data from 17hats, then import the CSV into OnBrio. Most migrations take a single afternoon. Our team offers free migration support for all waitlist members — reach out to migration@onbrio.com and we will walk you through the process.
OnBrio includes an AI Copilot that drafts proposals, summarizes client history, suggests follow-up actions, and flags at-risk projects. The Agency Brain layer builds a memory of your business patterns — which clients pay late, which project types are most profitable, and what your next quarter looks like. 17hats has no AI features.
