WHY IT MATTERS
Most freelancers underprice because they divide a salary by 2,000 hours. But you do not bill every hour — holidays, admin, sick days and quiet weeks all shrink your billable time, while tax and expenses eat into what lands in your pocket. This app accounts for all of it so your rate reflects reality.
