The admin that eats a freelancer's evenings

Invoicing on a Sunday

You open last month's invoice in a word processor, change the number, look up the hours in your calendar and hope the total is right.

A quote agreed somewhere in an email

The client wrote "sounds good" in a long thread. Three months later nobody is sure which version of the price they agreed to.

Not knowing what's still unpaid

Some clients pay in two parts, some pay late. Which invoices are still open is something you work out from your bank statement.

Time tracking for freelancers in a few minutes a week

Enter your hours per client and project at the end of the day or the week. There's no timer to forget to stop. Billable hours wait for the next invoice, and fixed-fee projects show how much time they really took.

  • Type 1:30 or 1.5, with a note if the client wants details.
  • Freelance developers can let AI coding agents such as Claude Code or Codex log their own time.
  • Buezli runs in the browser, on your laptop and on your phone.

Estimates your client accepts online

Build an estimate with line items, tax and an optional discount, and send it by email or as a secure link. Your client accepts or declines it on the page, and Buezli records the date it was accepted. An accepted estimate becomes an invoice draft with the same lines.

  • Clients don't need an account to accept.
  • One discount applies to the whole estimate, and tax can differ per line.

Invoice your tracked hours

Choose the unbilled hours and expenses for a client and Buezli creates the invoice draft, with an automatic number and your rates already applied. Send it by email with a PDF, then record the payment when it arrives, even if it comes in two parts.

  • Invoices in German, English, French or Italian, in CHF, EUR or USD.
  • CHF invoices from a Swiss account can include a Swiss QR bill.
  • A receivables report shows open invoices by how many days they're overdue.

When Buezli fits your freelance work

A good fit if you

  • Work on your own and bill clients by the hour or per project.
  • Send estimates before you start and want them accepted in writing.
  • Have Swiss clients who pay by QR bill, or clients abroad who pay in EUR or USD.
  • May take on a first employee later and want the same tool then.

Look elsewhere if you need

  • A free plan. After the 30-day trial Buezli costs CHF 99 per year.
  • A running timer or a phone app.
  • Bookkeeping, VAT returns or invoices sent through a national e-invoicing system.

Questions and answers

Is there a free version for freelancers?

No. You can try everything for 30 days without a credit card, then it's CHF 99 per year. If you only need one invoice now and then, the free invoice generator on this site creates a PDF without an account.

Is Buezli a freelance time tracker with a timer?

No. You enter how long you worked, at the end of the day or the week. That suits people who plan their day in blocks. If you want to start and stop a clock, a timer app will suit you better.

Can I create Swiss QR bills?

Yes, for invoices in CHF when your account is based in Switzerland. Add your IBAN or QR-IBAN and address, and the QR bill is printed on the invoice PDF.

Can I invoice clients in other countries?

Yes. Each client has a currency, CHF, EUR or USD, and a document language, German, English, French or Italian. Invoices and estimates follow those settings.

What happens when I hire someone?

Invite them by email. They track their own time, and you pay CHF 99 per year for each active user. Nothing needs to be moved or set up again.

Send your next invoice from buezli.app.

Clients and projects are set up in minutes. Track the week and invoice it on Friday.
