Solo freelancers need PM, invoicing, and time tracking in one place but are priced out of team-oriented tools that bundle features they do not use. The alternative — stitching together free tiers across multiple apps — creates friction across the core billing workflow. There is no well-designed lightweight tool built specifically for the solo operator use case.
