Invoicing for freelancers

Send freelance invoices from work you have already recorded. Review your hours and expenses in one draft, then get back to client work.

Free for 14 days — every feature, no credit card, no automatic charge.

From recorded work to a clear bill

One client invoice. Every agreed cost.

Finish a design job without rebuilding the bill from notes. Review your tracked hours and the expense your client agreed to cover.

  1. Track the work

    Choose your client project and record hours as you work.

  2. Keep the receipt

    Save the expense against the same project and check whether you can bill it.

  3. Review the invoice

    Choose the billable work, check the draft, and send it when you are ready.

Fictional example, before tax. Review your agreement and invoice lines before sending. Recording a cost does not automatically make it billable.

Invoice in minutes, not evenings.

Explain the work once

Use recorded notes to prepare clear descriptions for your freelance invoice.

Bring agreed purchases with the hours

Review eligible project expenses in the same draft as your work.

Check before the client sees it

Read the PDF and verify the recipient before you send.

A fixed fee does not grow because you recorded more hours. Agree extra charges before adding them to an invoice.

Questions about invoicing for freelancers

How much detail should I put on a freelance invoice?
Use descriptions your client can recognise, such as the deliverable and billing period. Review the recorded work before sending. You can organise the draft without asking your client to interpret every working note.
Can I invoice only part of a freelance project?
Select the eligible work you intend to bill now. Leave the remaining hours for a later review, and check the timing against your client agreement.
Check product availability and limits
