Freelance Invoice Tracker & Client Dashboard — Offline App, No Subscription
Four questions every freelancer asks: who owes me, how much, how late, and what did I actually make this year. LedgerDesk answers all four on one screen.It's a freelance invoice tracker, client CRM, time log and expense tracker in a single HTML file. Double-click it and it opens in your browser. No signup, no account, no monthly fee, and it works with the wi-fi off.Why not a spreadsheet, and why not accounting softwareA spreadsheet doesn't tell you an invoice went overdue this morning. Accounting software does, but you're paying $15 to $30 every month forever to track eight clients — and your books live on someone else's server.LedgerDesk is the middle. You pay once. Your data sits in your own browser and is never transmitted anywhere. There is no server to go down, no account to get locked out of, and no price increase next year.What it doesDashboard — paid this year, outstanding, overdue, expenses, profit, suggested tax set-aside, and unbilled time you've forgotten to charge for. Six-month income vs expenses chart.Clients — contact details, billing address, default hourly rate, status, notes. See what each client has paid you and what's still outstanding.Projects — linked to a client, with hourly rate, fee budget and due date. A progress bar shows how much of the budget you've burned so you spot an overrun before it hurts.Time log — log hours against a project. Entries start unbilled, so nothing quietly goes unpaid. One click drafts an invoice from every unbilled hour, grouped by project.Invoices — unlimited line items, per-invoice discount and tax, automatic sequential numbering with your own prefix, and payment terms. Overdue is calculated from the due date, never something you have to remember to set.Printable PDF invoices — a clean, professional invoice layout with your business details, the client's billing address, itemised lines, tax and total. Hit Print, choose Save as PDF, email it.Expenses — amount, date, category, deductible flag, and optional link to a client. Breakdown of where your money actually goes.Reports — income, expenses, profit and margin by year, month-by-month chart, income by client, expenses by category, and a suggested tax set-aside. Export the lot to CSV for your accountant.Rate calculator — work backwards from the take-home income you want, your business costs, your tax rate and your realistic billable hours, to the hourly, daily, weekly and monthly numbers you need to hit.Also in the boxGetting Paid On Time — a printable one-page checklist covering what to agree before you start, what belongs on an invoice, and a day-by-day chase ladder from the due date to final notice.Dark and light mode. Works on mobile. Change two hex codes in the file and the whole app, invoices included, follows your brand.Your data, actually yoursEverything is stored in your browser's local storage on your own device. Nothing is uploaded, there are no analytics, no tracking, and no network requests at all — it's one readable file you can inspect yourself.That does mean backups are on you, so there's a one-click Export backup that gives you a single file. Put it in your cloud drive, import it on any machine, carry on where you left off.Who it's forFreelancers, contractors, consultants, designers, developers, writers and small studios who invoice a handful of clients and want to stop guessing. If you're running payroll or filing VAT returns, you need real accounting software — this isn't that, and it doesn't pretend to be.What you needAny computer with a browser. Nothing to install, no account, no subscription, no internet connection required.Honest limitsLedgerDesk is a record-keeping tool, not accounting software, and nothing in it is tax or financial advice. The tax set-aside and deductible totals are arithmetic applied to numbers you enter — what's actually deductible varies by country. Check anything that matters with an accountant.Licence: use it for your own business and unlimited client work, including work you charge for.
