Problem: Freelancers juggle invoices and payouts across multiple platforms and clients and want a single place to track what’s owed and what’s paid. Solution: A web dashboard that connects to Upwork/Fiverr/PayPal/Stripe/QuickBooks/Gmail to auto-ingest invoices, contracts, due dates and payment statuses. Differentiator: Smart matching of POs, emails and payments; cash-flow forecasting; gentle dunning; export to accountants. Target early niche: freelancers/solo studios.
Platform: web
Reddit ‑ r/freelance – Feb 2024 thread “App for tracking invoices/pay across multiple platforms?” (URL provided by user) with several comments asking for a single dashboard that pulls from Upwork, Fiverr, PayPal and Stripe. Users mention current work-arounds (spreadsheets, Harvest, Cushion) and say they would pay for an automated tool.
Reddit ‑ r/Upwork – June 2025 post “I built a free dashboard to better analyze your Upwork income” (upwork-analytics-alpha.vercel.app). >200 up-votes and requests for “multi-platform” support illustrate unmet need beyond Upwork alone.
Multiple other Reddit posts (r/webdev, r/digitalnomad) ask “Best way to track freelance income?” or “CRM to keep invoices under control?”. Consensus: people stitch together Excel + PayPal export + manual dunning.
