Everything you need

One tool. The whole business.

Stop duct-taping five SaaS tools together. Exannio handles the full freelance lifecycle โ€” from first inquiry to final invoice โ€” without losing the calm, focused feel of working solo.

Sales pipeline

A drag-and-drop kanban board for inquiries, deals, proposals, and closed-won. Weighted pipeline value tells you what to actually expect.

Proposals & quotes

Build proposals from reusable templates. When a client accepts, the project is created automatically โ€” context and notes carried over.

Time & jobs

Log work as jobs against a client and rate. Calendar, mini-scheduler, and bulk close โ€” without the gamified tracker burnout.

Invoicing on autopilot

Bundle unbilled jobs into a clean, numbered invoice in seconds. Tax, discounts, draft โ†’ sent โ†’ paid โ€” all tracked.

Profitability per project

See revenue, labor cost, vendor cost, profit, and margin for every project. Find the clients quietly draining your time.

Clients & rates

Multiple rates per client, custom rate cards, W2 / contract distinction. The whole client relationship in one place.

Forecasts & goals

Set a monthly revenue goal. Watch the projection update with every closed job. Know if you'll hit your year, weeks ahead.

Tasks & docs

Personal tasks with priorities and due dates. File storage, folders, and project notes that travel with the work.

Bring your team

Invite collaborators when the work outgrows you. Multi-tenant workspaces, project members, shared notes, the lot.

Sales pipeline

Close deals like you mean it.

Drag deals across stages โ€” Inquiry, In Progress, Proposal Sent, Closed Won โ€” and instantly see weighted pipeline value, average deal size, and what's slipping. No more "I'll get to it after this project."

Profitability

Find out which clients actually pay you.

Most freelancers don't really know which projects make money. Exannio computes revenue, labor, and direct costs per project, then shows you the margin in plain numbers. The "great" client paying late on small jobs? You'll spot them in seconds.

How it works

From inquiry to invoice in four steps.

1

Capture the lead

A new inquiry lands in your pipeline. Add value, contact, expected close date.

2

Send the proposal

Use a template, tweak the line items, send it. When accepted, a project is born.

3

Do the work

Log jobs against the project. Track tasks, store docs, watch the budget.

4

Get paid

Bundle unbilled jobs into one invoice. Mark it sent. Mark it paid. Repeat.

"I cancelled four other subscriptions the week I started using Exannio. For the first time I actually know which of my clients are worth keeping."

FAQ

Common questions.

Is Exannio just for freelancers?+

It's built first for solo operators and small studios โ€” designers, developers, consultants, photographers, agencies under 10 people. If you spend more than an hour a week stitching together client info, you're our person.

Can I import data from my current tools?+

Yes โ€” clients, projects, and historical jobs can be imported via CSV during onboarding. We'll help you map columns the first time.

Does Exannio handle taxes and payments?+

Invoices support tax and discounts at the line-item level. Direct payment processing is on the roadmap โ€” for now, most users send invoices and accept Stripe / bank transfer outside the app.

Is my data private?+

Each workspace lives in its own isolated tenant database. We don't train models on your data. Export your full workspace any time.

What if I cancel?+

Cancel any time from settings. Your data stays exportable for 30 days after cancellation.
