For Freelance Creatives

You invoice in Word.
Your expenses are a folder called "Misc."

You're a designer, photographer, copywriter, or developer. You have clients. You have work. You don't have a bookkeeper — and you shouldn't need one for what amounts to 15–20 transactions a month.

Sound familiar?

💳

Adobe, Figma, Dropbox, stock photos, fonts, a new lens, a course — all deductible, all scattered across two credit cards and a PayPal account.

📨

Subscription confirmation emails that count as receipts. Somewhere. Probably in that folder. Or maybe search will find them.

📑

You signed up for QuickBooks once. You opened it twice. You're still paying for it.

🗓️

Tax prep is a Tuesday in February where you reconstruct an entire year from bank statements. You've done it before. You'd rather not do it again.

The same 10 expense categories, month after month

You outgrew the spreadsheet. You never needed QuickBooks. Your business is genuinely simple — software subscriptions, equipment, home office, and project revenue. The bookkeeping should be equally simple.

1

Capture the receipt when it arrives

Forward the confirmation email, save the PDF, or photograph the packaging slip. Your phone's photo roll or a cloud folder — Bookkeeping-OCR pulls from either.

2

Batch process once a month

Upload images, let OCR extract vendor and amount, assign categories. For a freelance creative with 15–20 monthly transactions, this takes 20 minutes. Once. Per month.

3

Revenue in, expenses out, P&L ready

Record project payments as you receive them, linked to the client. By year-end your profit & loss is ready. Your accountant gets a clean CSV. Not a reconstruction project.

Built for what freelancers actually track

Software Subscriptions

Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, Notion, hosting, stock photo services — monthly and annual subscriptions tracked as deductible business expenses, not lost in email.

Equipment & Tech

Camera gear, lenses, computers, monitors, hard drives — photographed at purchase and on record for your Schedule C and any depreciation your CPA identifies.

Home Office

Track the expenses that feed your home office deduction: internet, phone, utilities (in proportion to business use). Your accountant handles the percentage; you provide the totals.

Project Revenue by Client

Record payments received, linked to the client and project. Know which clients are most profitable, not just busiest.

Professional Development

Courses, workshops, books, conferences — continuing education is deductible. Track it with everything else so nothing gets left off.

Clean Export for Your CPA

One-click CSV or Excel export of categorized expenses and revenue. Your accountant sees organized data, not a shoebox of screenshots.

Stop paying monthly for software you open twice a year.
