Your freelance books, complete — and completely yours.

You already do the work — translating, designing, coding, shooting, consulting. 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 keeps the entire score: jobs, invoices, payments and expenses, in a fast native app that stores everything on your devices and in your own iCloud.

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: 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 ledger, 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 business from a ledger that's finally yours.
