Freelance Writers FAQ

Why is Indy good for freelance writers?

Writers can make great use of Indy’s forms, proposals, and contracts to find new leads, land new clients, and get on with the business of writing. Once the job starts, tracking billable hours and getting paid are simple with Indy’s Time Tracker and Invoices tools.

How long is the free trial?

The free trial doesn’t have an end date. For some of our tools, there are some limits on how much you can use them each month. However, Indy costs less than the two cups of coffee you bought last month while you tried to sort out your admin at Starbucks.

When you create an invoice with Indy, you can integrate payment methods like PayPal, Zelle, Stripe, and other card payment providers.
