    PlainInvoice▲11

    Hi HN, I'm a freelance developer, and like many others, I used to manage invoices through clunky spreadsheets, reused templates, and endless email threads with my accountant. To simplify that, I built PlainInvoice.com — a minimal invoicing tool designed for freelancers and small teams. It's clean, fast, and doesn't require sign-up to start. Some features: Generate invoices instantly (no login needed) Save clients, track total billed and actual received (with multi-currency support) Upload attachments (like receipts or contracts) Add teammates or accountants with viewer-only access Works well…

    I built a Stripe tool that lets your customers generate their own editable invoices for past & new payments, from your connected Stripe accounts.

Stripe charges 0.4% often up to $2 each, to generate PDF invoices for one-time payment purchases. These invoices are usually not editable. With InvoicelyApp: * You get a unique link that your customers can use to view their purchase history, generate, edit, and download invoices for any payment…

    I built a tool that turns every issue in the project to a tiny-invoice▲10

    Does this make sense? So, here’s the context: I ran a product design agency for about 3 years and grew it to 6 figures. For those 3 years, we never got the invoice cleared on time. We would chat with the client regularly, 2-3 times a week on average, get some work approved to move on. But, when it came to the invoice, it never got paid on time. So, I thought, how about we turn each task into an invoice that gets auto paid on approval from the client. Like an escrow, but on a much granular-task level. This ensures work is paid on time regularly, and there’s no need to raise invoices, follow…
