Cakedesk has been a huge time saver, it now takes just a few minutes to create a proposal or invoice. It remembers client's billing details and calculates VAT for you, plus it's very easy to use. Cherry on top is its built-in templates – the Industrial one is my go-to 😻

Get in touch

When I started freelancing, I created my invoices in Word. It worked, but it never felt right.

I didn't want my invoices in some random cloud or to be locked into a subscription, especially early on when money was tight.

That's why I built Cakedesk: Works offline, pay once, you own your data.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. I'm happy to help and I'll reply personally.
