Send professional invoices in minutes, not spreadsheets

Platybooks turns invoicing into a single, clear screen. Add a client, list what you sold, and the subtotal, tax, and total add up automatically as you type. A live PDF preview sits right beside the form, so you see the finished invoice before you send it. No surprises, no exporting to a separate tool to check the layout.

Every invoice carries your details and your client's, the line items, applied tax, and a clear amount due. When you're ready, send it straight from Platybooks by email or as a link your client can open in a browser. The status updates as things move, so you always know what's outstanding.

Pick a client (or add one in a couple of clicks), then add your line items. For each line you set a description, quantity, unit price, and tax rate; Platybooks keeps a running total so you never reach for a calculator. Set the issue date and a due date — new invoices can pre-fill the due date from your default payment terms.

When the numbers look right, finalize the invoice. At that moment Platybooks assigns the next invoice number in sequence, with no gaps, so your records stay clean and audit-friendly. Then send it: email it directly with the PDF attached, or share a link your client opens in their browser. The PDF your client sees is the same one in your preview — one template, no drift between screen and send.

Invoice numbers should run in an unbroken sequence — many tax authorities expect it, and gaps invite questions. Platybooks generates each number on the server the moment you finalize, under a lock, so two invoices can never grab the same number and you never end up with holes in the sequence. It's handled for you; you don't manage a counter by hand.

Money is just as careful. Totals are calculated in whole cents rather than floating-point decimals, so what you quote is what you bill — no penny drift creeping in across many line items. Each business gets its own independent numbering and its own data, fully isolated from every other account on Platybooks.

Platybooks is built for freelancers, contractors, and small businesses that bill clients and want it to feel simple — not for accountants buried in ledgers. If you send a handful of invoices a month or a few hundred, the workflow is the same: fast to create, clear to read, and easy to send.

You can start free, forever, with no credit card. The Free plan covers up to 3 clients and 5 documents a month with PDF invoices and manual payment recording — enough to run real invoicing. When you outgrow it, Starter ($12/month) unlocks unlimited clients and documents, hosted online payment links so clients can pay in a couple of clicks, your own logo on the PDF, and 100 emails a month. Pro ($29/month) adds automation like overdue reminders, scheduled sends, and quote auto-convert.
