The problem

Freelancing is hard enough. Your tools shouldn't be.

Most freelancers cobble together 4–6 different apps. Each one adds friction, cost, and cognitive load — right when you should be focused on your clients.

Tool fragmentation
One app for contracts, another for time tracking, another for invoicing, another to chase payments. You spend more time managing software than managing clients.
Scope creep chaos
Clients request changes verbally, on email, in Slack. Without a clear system, work expands silently and you end up undercharging for months of extra effort.
Late payments
Chasing invoices manually is demoralising and time-consuming. Most freelancers wait 30–60 days beyond terms — or write off payments entirely to avoid the awkwardness.
Features

One platform. The entire lifecycle.

Joust is purpose-built for independent web developers, designers, and consultants. Every feature is designed for the way you actually work.

Proposals & Contracts
Send polished proposals that convert. Built-in e-signatures. Scope changes are tracked, documented, and charged.
Time Tracking
Start a timer in one click. Log time per project and task. Automatically pull tracked hours into invoices.
Invoicing
Professional invoices in seconds. VAT-compliant, multi-currency, automatically calculated from tracked time and fixed fees.
Payment Chasing
Automated, professional reminders go out at the right intervals. No awkward emails. You get paid without lifting a finger.
Client Portal
Clients get a clean, branded portal to review proposals, sign contracts, view project status, and pay invoices.

I used to spend the last Friday of every month sending invoices and chasing payments. With Joust that's just… gone. It handles everything. I haven't had a late payment in three months.

The client portal is the feature I didn't know I needed. Clients stop emailing to ask "where's the invoice?" because they can just log in and see everything themselves.

I was paying for Bonsai, Toggl, and FreshBooks separately. Joust does everything they do but the time tracking actually connects to my invoices. That alone makes it worth it.
