Stop losing track of unpaid invoices. A simple tool for freelancers who'd rather do the work than chase the money.
No credit card. No setup fees. 30 seconds to start.
Freelancers lose thousands every year to forgotten invoices. If you've ever found $2,000 hiding in your email from 3 months ago, you know the feeling.
Drafted but never sent. Sent but never followed up on. Paid but never recorded. It all blends together in email threads and spreadsheets.
April comes and you're scrambling through PayPal, bank statements, and half-finished spreadsheets. Your accountant charges extra for the mess.
Bonsai is $36/month. QuickBooks is overkill. You don't need accounting software. You just need to know who hasn't paid yet.
Name, email, rate. Takes 10 seconds per client. They're saved forever.
Client → amount → save. Invoice number auto-generates. Due date auto-sets to +30 days.
Dashboard shows outstanding, paid, overdue at a glance. Red means chase. Green means done.
Pick a client, type an amount, hit save. You're done. The invoice number, due date, and status all auto-fill with smart defaults.
See total outstanding, overdue, and collected at a glance. Filter by status. Sort by amount. Export to CSV for your accountant.
No invasive analytics. No tracking. Your invoice data lives in a SQLite database you can export and take anywhere.
