A Jira Cloud app by Guenov Labs
Give clients the answer, not the Jira board.
ClientLens turns any Jira project into a plain-language status page you share with one secure link — no client login, no seat to buy, no weekly PDF. Your client opens it on their phone and knows, in seconds, whether the project is on track.
Your client asked how the project's going. Again.
You know how it's going — it's all in Jira. Every ticket, every status, every sprint, meticulously maintained, and completely unreadable to the person asking. So you open a document, type out what's in your head, and forty minutes later send a PDF that's out of date before they've read it. Next week, you do it again.
And the alternatives are worse. Buy them a Jira seat and they log in once, drown in a board full of "In Review" and story points, and email you to ask how it's going anyway. Give them anonymous access and now anyone with the link can see everything. There's never been a clean way to tell a client the one thing they want to know: is this okay?
Three steps to a status page your client will actually read.
- 1
Pick a project
Choose any Jira project, board, or filter. ClientLens drafts a plain-language summary from your Jira data — a health verdict and what's recently done, in progress, and coming up.
Choose a sourceProjectBoardFilterAny project, board, or saved filter can be the source. - 2
Review and approve
Nothing is automatic. Edit the wording, set the status, and remove any work item you don't want shared. Nothing reaches your client that you haven't seen and approved.
Review and edit before anything is shared. - 3
Share one secure link
Send a private link. Your client needs no Jira account. Update the page and the same link stays live — every page has its own link you can replace or disable independently.
Manage every client page and its link in one place.
Built for the person who never opens Jira.
A page, not a backlog
Your client sees a plain verdict, a short summary, and three simple lists — no ticket keys, no story points, no jargon. Readable on a phone in seconds.
You approve every word
ClientLens drafts; you decide. Edit the summary, curate the work items, set the status. Your client only ever sees what you've signed off.
One link. No login. Revocable.
A unique, unguessable link per client — no Jira seat required to view, read-only always, and replaceable or disable-able anytime, independently of every other page.
Your Jira data never leaves Atlassian.
ClientLens runs entirely on Atlassian Forge. Your data stays on Atlassian's infrastructure, and the plain-language summaries are generated using Atlassian's own on-platform AI — no third-party AI providers, no external hosting, no trackers. Every client page is read-only and protected by a unique link you control. You review and approve every summary and every work item before anything is published.
ClientLens isn't for every situation. Here's when to use something else.
ClientLens is built on one belief: your client should never have to see Jira. That makes it the wrong tool for some jobs, and we'd rather you use the right one.
If the person you're sharing with is a collaborator — someone who needs to work in the project, comment on tickets, browse the board, or file bugs — they need the real thing, and a tool like External Share for Jira is the better fit. Give them the fidelity they'll actually use.
But if they're a reader — a client or executive who just needs to know the project is on track, in language they understand — handing them the full board doesn't inform them, it buries them. That's the person ClientLens is built for. Most "can I share Jira with my client?" questions are reader questions in disguise.
Made for people who report to people who don't use Jira.
Agencies & consultancies
Keep every client informed without buying seats or writing Friday PDFs.
Internal teams
Give execs and business stakeholders a status they'll read, not a board they won't.
Freelancers
Look buttoned-up with a branded status page, in the two minutes you have.
Questions, answered honestly.
Does my client need a Jira license?
No. That's the whole point. Your client opens a secure link with no Atlassian account and no login. You never buy a seat for the people you share pages with.
Is it secure? Can just anyone open the link?
Each page has its own unique, unguessable link that you can replace or disable at any time, independently of every other page. Pages are read-only — clients can view, never edit — and you approve every summary and work item before it's published. It's built on Atlassian Forge, so your data never leaves Atlassian's infrastructure.
How is this different from sharing my Jira board?
A board shows raw work items — tickets, statuses, sprints. ClientLens shows an interpretation: a health verdict, a plain-language summary, and what's done, in progress, and next. Collaborators want the board; clients almost always want the interpretation.
Do you use my data to train AI, or send it to third parties?
No. Summaries are generated using Atlassian's on-platform AI, on Atlassian's infrastructure. No third-party AI providers, no external hosting, no trackers.
What if my client occasionally needs to see a specific ticket?
Then send that detail by hand on the rare occasion it comes up — or, if they genuinely need to browse the project, they're a collaborator, and a full-access tool like External Share fits better. ClientLens is deliberately a status page, not a workspace.
How much does it cost?
The people you share pages with are always free — they never need a seat. You're only billed for your team's ClientLens users. See the exact current pricing tiers and free trial length on the Atlassian Marketplace listing's Pricing tab.
Simple pricing. The people you share with are always free.

Stop writing the weekly PDF.
Give your client a link that's always current, and give yourself your Friday back.
