| Hey there, thanks a lot for this comment! Indeed an interesting use case to add to my list :) To comment on the points you mentioned:
Great to hear you're looking for a proposal/invoice solution. Hour tracking is not currently built as a feature, as for now it's a web-based application and I have a feeling time tracking needs to be closer integrated into the system, so that it's quicker to access. So it has to be a desktop app imo, which I am exploring for the future. What will be available right away is an easy way to set an estimate in the proposal and then update the project with the actual hours when the project is complete. But this is great feedback and I'll do my best to cover your use case. The whole idea with payments is to make it as easy as possible for the client to pay. I've experienced late payments multiple times myself, so a built-in solution with multiple payment options should be a no-brainer for the client. The payments are done using Stripe - they're the most reliable player on the market. As the client makes the payment, it goes directly to the freelancer. There're definitely many edge cases that I hope to cover during the beta phase. I also believe subscriptions could be a popular feature. You could use it for retainers, as you mentioned, or run productized services, which are pretty popular these days. So offering fixed packages and fixed timelines. And the coolest thing is that the payments are collected automatically, so not you or the client need to worry about it. Deliverables is just a cherry on top. I know it's not applicable for everyone but doesn't hurt to have it :) Thanks again for this feedback and looking forward to hearing your thoughts again once you try it yourself! |
