# **Built by creators, for creators**

Comic creators spend too much time managing files across scattered tools and not enough time creating. We built ICDb to fix that.

ICDb combines project management built specifically for comic workflows with automatic portfolio generation. Upload your work once, organize your projects, and get a professional portfolio site—without the chaos of juggling 10 different tools.

## **The team behind ICDb**

We're not just building software—we're solving problems we've lived.
