Plainvoice — the honest invoice app

Paperwork is not
a subscription.

Unlimited invoices, real PDFs, get-paid links — free forever. No account, no trial clock, no “Pro” tier holding your own logo hostage. The only thing that ever costs money is AI doing the typing — and only when you ask it to.

№ 01 — WHY WE EXIST

You didn't churn.
You were pushed.

The popular invoice apps trained millions of freelancers to expect the rug-pull. These are from their own one-star reviews — we read them so you don't have to live them.

“3 invoices a month was all I was allowed to create.”
THE CAP — free until you actually use it
“…forcing you to a $199 yearly subscription.”
THE HIKE — $59 → $199, take it or leave your data
“…minimizing the features so you pay even more for a higher tier.”
THE CLAWBACK — features you had, re-sold to you
“…enabled a link to take payments… without the owner's permission.”
THE SKIM — a cut of your money, switched on quietly
THE MATH: a “starter” plan at $19/month is $1,140 over five years — to generate PDFs. Your invoice app shouldn't be a line item on your own books.
№ 02 — THE PRICE

Here's your receipt.

Not a pricing table with three columns and a “most popular” badge. A receipt — because this is everything we'll ever ring up for the core app. There is no Pro tier. There is nothing to upgrade to.

The one thing that costs money is optional: AI that types the invoice for you — from a sentence, a photo, or into another language. It costs us real compute, so it costs you a real (small) price. That's the whole business model.

№ 03 — THE PROMISE

Don't trust us.
Hold us to it.

Every app says “free”. So we wrote ours down like a contract — specific enough that you'd notice the day we broke it. It ships with the product and it doesn't have an expiry date.

PRICING PROMISE · Nº 001 · IN EFFECT PERMANENTLY
  1. Unlimited invoices, clients and estimates — free, forever. We never count.
  2. Your data is yours. One-click export, any time. No hostages.
  3. AI is the only paid feature. What's free is stated before you start — and stays free.
  4. If a price ever changes, existing users keep theirs. And we tell you first.
  5. We never remove a feature you already have.
  6. We never touch the money your clients pay you. 0%, and payment links only exist if you turn them on.

The fastest way to an invoice
is to stop typing them.

04a — DESCRIBE IT

Paste the chat. Get the invoice.

“2h consulting at $120 and a $500 setup fee for Acme, due in 30 days” — or the whole messy client thread. The AI pulls out items, prices and the client; you get an editable draft. Totals are always computed in code, never guessed.

04b — SNAP IT

Leaving another app? Bring a photo.

Snap a printed invoice — yours, or from the app you're escaping — and it's rebuilt as an editable draft. The free read happens on your device; the photo never leaves your phone.

04c — TRANSLATE IT

Invoice in your client's language.

One tap and the whole invoice switches — labels, dates, currency formatting — the way your client in Tokyo or Hanoi actually reads them. Standard terms are free and instant from a built-in dictionary; only your own words ever use AI. Try it — tap a language:

There isn't any.
But ask anyway.

01Is Plainvoice really free?

Yes. Unlimited invoices, clients and estimates — free, forever, with no caps. There's no trial that expires; the core stays free.

02Do I need to create an account?

No. There's no signup and no login. Your data is stored locally on your own device, and you can export it any time.

03Will the price suddenly go up, or features disappear?

No. Our Pricing Promise is in writing: existing users are grandfathered, we tell you before any change, and we never remove a feature you already have.

04What do I actually pay for?

Only optional AI features — describing an invoice in a sentence, reading a photo of a printed invoice, or translating an invoice into your client's language. Making invoices by hand is always free.

05Do you take a cut of the payments my clients make?

No — 0%. Plainvoice never touches the money your clients pay you. Get-paid links go straight to you.

06Can I invoice a client in another language?

Yes. Pick a language and the whole invoice — labels, dates and currency — switches in one tap. The standard labels are free; only your own wording uses AI.

07Does it work on my phone and offline?

Yes. Plainvoice is a Progressive Web App — add it to your home screen and it opens like an app and works offline. Everything runs on your device.
