MBP earns its place for consolidating project details, client information and time tracking into Blender's N-Panel, with CSV export for summarizing your work.
Manage Blender Projects (MBP) runs inside Blender's panel and keeps project and client information in one place. You can track a project's progress and save details such as project status, start and finish dates, income and client name directly in the N-Panel, without leaving Blender.
From the projects list you can open a project's Blender file or folder, so files are easy to find again. When you create a new project, MBP builds the folders you want and saves the Blender file in the right folder. A timer, added in version 2.0, tracks the time you work on each project, and you can export all your project data to a CSV file for a summary of your work.
Two editions are available: the full version and MBP Lite, a simpler projects list without the client list where you add a project name, status and notes. Version 3.0 updated compatibility for Blender 4.5 and fixed small bugs. All versions were tested on Windows, and the addon is released under the GPL license.
Manage Blender Projects - Mbp is best for blender freelancers tracking projects, clients and work time, with MBP Lite suiting non-freelancers who want a simple projects list.
Manage Blender Projects - Mbp is completely free to download and use.
Manage Blender Projects supports Blender versions 3.6 through 4.5. Version 3.0, released in December 2025, updated compatibility for Blender 4.5 and fixed some small bugs. If you run a recent Blender release within that range, the addon works inside Blender's N-Panel, where you keep your project and client details. For Blender versions outside the stated 3.6 to 4.5 range, check the developer's page before installing, since compatibility beyond that range is not documented.
Manage Blender Projects has been tested only on Windows across all of its versions, according to the developer. That makes Windows the confirmed platform, while behaviour on macOS or Linux is not documented. If you work on another operating system, it is worth reaching out through the developer's page before relying on the addon for live project management. The tool itself lives in Blender's N-Panel and stores project status, dates, income and client information there.
Manage Blender Projects includes a timer, added in version 2.0, that tracks the time you work on each project. If you have older project data from before the timer existed, the developer explains how to move that data into the newer version in the dos tab. Alongside time tracking, the addon can export all of your project data to a CSV file, giving you a summary of your projects and work outside of Blender.
Manage Blender Projects is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing and any paid tiers can change, so check the developer's page for current terms before downloading. The addon is released under the GPL license. Two editions exist: the full version aimed at freelancers, and MBP Lite, a simpler projects list without the client list that lets you add a project name, status and notes. The developer's page carries the latest details on each edition.
