“Our counseling practice needs a portal where clients see the homework we set between sessions, and each therapist keeps private notes on their own clients' sessions.”

In plain English
A therapy and counseling portal is where clients work through the homework set between sessions, and each therapist keeps session notes that only they can read. It follows the Tracking pattern: a person's or asset's history, built up over time. Pory generates it from a plain-English description, with a login for each role (client and therapist) that shows only what that role should see, and flat pricing with unlimited clients.
What it does
Session notes end up in a locked drawer, a Word file on one laptop, or a practice system the whole office can open. Here each therapist sees only their own clients' sessions, and the notes on a session are readable by that therapist alone; the client sees the date and their homework, never the notes. Confidentiality stops depending on who leaves a laptop open.
Homework used to be a line scribbled on an appointment card, lost in a coat pocket by Thursday. Each exercise the therapist sets lands on the client's list with a due date, and they tick it off as they go. The next session starts with what got done, not "remind me what I was meant to try?"
Pory generates a portal from these pieces and wires the permissions between them. The same parts run a grant round, a help desk, and a tenant portal — only the names on the pages change.
Collect
Signed-in or public, with typed fields and file uploads. A form files a record; it doesn't start an email thread.
An application page, a notice board, an open directory — pages and forms anyone can use without signing in, on your domain.
People create their own account and land in the role you chose for them.
Upload and view files on the record they belong to — not in a folder named FINAL v2.
Decide
Decision buttons for whoever may edit the status. Who decided, when, and why stays on the record.
“Where's my request?” answered as a progress bar on the submitter's own page.
Cards in columns. Drag a record to move it along.
Task lists ticked off per record, with progress — onboarding runs, inspections, opening duties.
Name who a record is for and it lands on their list, and nobody else's.
A reviewer's score, a coach's feedback, a clinician's note — kept on the record it belongs to, never lost in a thread.
Renewals, expiries and overdue work, in an in-app inbox and by email.
Share
Search, filters, sorting, inline add and edit — the spreadsheet, minus the sharing accident.
Portraits, names, and roles from a table, shown only to the roles allowed to see them.
Records on a month or week view, by date.
Records as cards or photos.
A shareable pop-up with a record's details and what's linked to it. Edit, change status, or add a linked record from there.
Check-in details, benefits, updates — a page for a role to read.
Live figures over the rows a viewer is allowed to read.
Control
Own, assigned, managed, and team rows; hidden fields per role. Generated from your description, not configured field by field.
A sign-in link by email, by default. Password sign-in if you'd rather.
Your domain, your colours, your logo. Members see you.
On purpose
A portal runs a program, a service, or a process. These jobs belong to tools built for them, and Pory keeps the records around them instead.
Pory tracks who owes what and who has paid. It doesn't collect the money — keep your payment tool for that.
Availability, capacity, time zones, and reschedules are a whole product. Pory holds what happens after the booking.
No feeds, threads, likes, or polls. A note on a record, yes; a forum, no. Where members talk is another tool's job.
Pory keeps the service record, not the map.
Describe it in a sentence and send the invite. Unlimited clients, flat price.
