# The Partner Portal, end to end. A white-label home for your proposals.

The partner portal turns the Kensink Builders Lab into your own branded proposal platform. You create and send proposals under your name, your domain, and your payment account. This guide is the map: the two surfaces you work in, and what each one does.

7 min read Updated Jun 2026

A **partner**is a workspace on the platform. Every proposal, demo, and client-facing page belongs to exactly one partner, and everything your client sees is rendered in your brand: your logo, accent colour, name, sending email, booking link, and payments. Your client never sees the word “Kensink”.

## The two surfaces

There are two places you work, depending on your role.

-   **Your portal** (`/p/your-slug`). Where your team signs in, creates proposals, manages static demos, and opens any proposal to build it. This is the day-to-day home.
-   **The proposal editor**. Opening a proposal lands you in the full editor, scoped to your workspace. You write sections, draft with AI, set pricing, upload an interactive mock, and send.

Setting a workspace up (branding, domain, email, Stripe) is done once by the Kensink team from the partners console, then handed to you. See _Set up your partner workspace_ for the full list of what gets configured.

## Signing in

Access is by magic link. From your portal login you enter your email and receive a one-click sign-in link. No passwords to manage, and access can be granted or revoked per email address at any time. Once signed in, you are confined to your own workspace: you can open and edit your proposals, and everything else stays out of view.

## What you can do

-   **Create proposals** from a client or company name, then build them section by section.
-   **Draft with AI**in your own voice, with a live preview of the client's view as you type.
-   **Price the work** with a component breakdown and an optional deposit, and take payment on your Stripe account.
-   **Attach an interactive mock**: a working prototype of what you are proposing, shown full screen in the client's Experience tab.
-   **Publish static demos** at a shareable public link.
-   **Hold a conversation** with the client in a built-in discussion thread, with an AI draft reply on your behalf.

## What your client receives

Your client opens a single link and sees a clean, three-tab proposal: **Experience** (the live mock), **Proposal** (your written case), and **Costing** (the breakdown, the decision buttons, and checkout). The whole thing is in your brand, down to the name on your replies in the discussion. The next two guides cover setup and the client view in detail.
