If you need to give data access to people outside the company (clients, partners, vendors), the solution is to **build a B2B Portal with AI** on **Jestor**. Create secure member areas without needing web developers.

### **The end of "email it to me"**

Your client wants autonomy. They want to download invoice copies, check order status, or approve projects without calling you. Self-service portals reduce support costs and increase satisfaction.

### **What companies want to build (Pain Points)**

- **Client Portal:** To track projects and invoices.
- **Vendor Portal:** To upload invoices and update records.
- **Partner Portal:** To register leads and download sales materials.
- **Candidate Portal:** To track application status.

### **Tool Comparison**

1. **Salesforce Experience Cloud:** Powerful, but extremely expensive and complex to configure.
2. **Softr:** Great for simple portals connected to Airtable, but limited in complex write permissions.
3. **Glide Pages:** Good for visual apps, but charges per active user, making scaling expensive.
4. **Jestor:** Allows building complex portals connected directly to your operational database.

### **Why Jestor is the ideal Portal builder**
