Deftest — Overview
Deftest app icon
A native app for Mac · iPhone · iPad

Freelance invoices and income, complete — and completely yours.

You already do the work, as a translator, designer, developer, photographer or consultant. But who owes you what, which invoice is running late, what this year has really earned — that shouldn't live in your head or a fragile spreadsheet. Deftest tracks it all: jobs, invoices, payments and expenses, in a fast native app that stores everything on your devices and in your own iCloud.

Why Deftest

Three reasons it exists

Private by architecture

No server, no account, no tracking — your books live on your devices and in your own iCloud, where the developer cannot see them.

Approach

Built around real freelance books

Deftest is shaped by the realities of freelance work: jobs in mixed currencies, invoices that have to satisfy accountants, payments that arrive minus bank fees, and histories that span many years. Every feature exists because working books demanded it — nothing is there for show.

And because every trade counts differently, nothing assumes yours. Translators bill by the word, photographers by the shoot, developers by the hour, consultants by the day. In Deftest, quantities live in units you define — words, hours, pages, shoots, sprints, site visits — with custom fields and industry templates for translation, photography, development, design, consulting and trades. One app, any freelance business.

Start with your history, not from zero.

Import years of past work from CSV in minutes — previewed, warned, undoable. Then run your freelance business from books that are finally yours.
