Designed for visual freelancers

Same plugin, every discipline

There are no industry editions. Every feature works for every kind of creative work. Here are just a few ways people use it.

Photographers

Bill a two-day shoot at your day rate, log the drive to location, and keep that new lens out of your profit.

Day-rate invoices & mileage

Designers

Send a quote for the rebrand, turn it into an invoice when they say yes, and let your monthly font subscription log itself.

Quotes to invoices (Pro)

Architects

Send a fee proposal as an estimate, invoice it once it’s approved, log every site visit, and watch your VAT quarter take shape.

Estimates & site-visit mileage

Illustrators

Invoice a US publisher in dollars with your exchange rate noted, and snap a photo of your art-supply receipt instead of typing it in.

Multi-currency & receipt scanning (Pro)

Videographers

Put three shoot days and two edit days on one invoice, log each location drive, and record that new camera body as equipment.

Day-rate lines & equipment tracking

Writers & Copywriters

Invoice a month of articles line by line, quote that website rewrite before you start, and sort research costs into expense categories.

Line-item invoices & quotes

Visual Artists & Makers

Invoice a painting sale or a weekend workshop, scan your materials receipts, and issue a credit note if a piece comes back.

Credit notes, plus receipt scanning (Pro)

Freelance Consultants

Invoice a ten-day engagement at your day rate, log client-site mileage, and see your next tax deadlines coming long before they arrive.

Day rates & tax deadlines

Boutique Creative Studios

Invoice clients in euros, pounds or dollars, track VAT on the scheme you’re registered for, and hand your accountant a clean CSV export.

Multi-currency (Pro) & CSV export
