We got tired of paying for overpriced invoice software that didn't respect our privacy. So we built something better—and made it completely free.
In 2024, our founder was reviewing monthly expenses and noticed yet another $15 charge from an invoice software subscription. The app was slow, the templates were outdated, and it required uploading sensitive client data to their servers without clear privacy policies.
The frustration led to a simple question: "Why are we paying a monthly fee for something that should be straightforward and free?"
Invoicing is essentially formatting information into a professional document. It doesn't require complex infrastructure, cloud storage, or monthly subscriptions. With modern browser technology, everything can run securely on the user's device.
Our Mission: Create a fast, secure, and completely free invoice generator that respects user privacy and eliminates the need for yet another SaaS subscription.
We spent three months building and refining the first version. No marketing budget. No launch campaign. Just a clean, functional tool shared with freelance communities on Reddit and professional forums.
The response exceeded our expectations. Within the first week, 1,000 invoices were created. By the second month, that number reached 10,000. Today, FreeInvoicePDF.org has generated over 500,000 invoices for freelancers and small businesses worldwide.
Most "free" invoice tools require account creation and upload your data to their servers. Some analyze it for marketing purposes, others sell it to third parties, and many have unclear data retention policies.
FreeInvoicePDF.org takes a fundamentally different approach. Your invoice data is processed and stored entirely in your browser. We don't see it, we don't store it on our servers, and we have no technical ability to access it—even if compelled to do so.
We've all encountered services that advertise as "free" but then limit functionality:
FreeInvoicePDF.org provides full functionality at no cost. Unlimited invoices, complete PDF export, no watermarks, custom branding, and multi-currency support—all included without requiring payment.
Speed is a priority. We've optimized every aspect of the platform to ensure fast load times and instant PDF generation. No heavy frameworks, no unnecessary dependencies, and no waiting for servers to "process" your invoice.
Our homepage loads in under one second. Creating and exporting an invoice takes approximately 30 seconds. Your time is valuable, and we respect that.
Freelancing is a global profession. From photographers in Southeast Asia to consultants in Latin America, developers in Africa to designers in Europe—if you do work and need to invoice for it, FreeInvoicePDF.org works for you.
We support 150+ currencies, function offline once loaded, and don't require financial information from specific countries or regions. Professional invoicing shouldn't be limited by geography.
Your data belongs to you. We built our architecture to ensure invoice information never leaves your device, making privacy a technical guarantee rather than a promise.
No hidden fees, no misleading free trials, no dark patterns. We believe in treating users with respect and providing clear information about how our service works.
Rather than building a complex platform with dozens of features, we focus on doing one thing exceptionally well: generating professional invoices quickly and easily.
Professional tools shouldn't be limited by geographic location or economic barriers. Our service is designed to work for freelancers everywhere.
We're not seeking venture capital or pursuing aggressive growth. We've built a sustainable tool that can operate indefinitely on modest infrastructure costs.
The majority of our features originated from user suggestions. We actively listen to feedback and implement improvements based on real-world needs.
A common question: If the service is free and we don't sell data, how do we sustain operations?
Transparent answer: We display minimal, non-intrusive advertising on the site that generates enough revenue to cover our server costs (approximately $20/month) and occasional maintenance. Additionally, we operate a sister project, FreeCV.org, which helps freelancers build professional CVs.
These projects together generate sufficient revenue to maintain operations without requiring user fees or compromising on privacy. We're not generating significant profit, nor is that our goal. This is a sustainable side project that serves a genuine need in the freelance community.
Our Commitment: As long as the service remains financially sustainable, FreeInvoicePDF.org will continue operating as a completely free, privacy-respecting invoice generator. We won't introduce premium tiers, paywalls, or compromise on the principles that define this project.
Whether you're creating your first invoice as a new freelancer or managing established client relationships, we appreciate your choice to use FreeInvoicePDF.org.
We don't collect analytics on individual users, we don't know your name, and we'll never send marketing emails. But we see the aggregate usage statistics, and they remind us daily that this tool is genuinely helping people.
Here's to your continued success.
