For freelance & deposition reporters

Every job billed. Every dollar tracked. Nothing left in a spreadsheet.

A simple system for the business side of reporting — invoicing, delivery deadlines, and who still owes you. Built by a reporter, for reporters, not an agency's marketplace.

Two templates, ready today

Not selling anything yet — just cleaning up the two documents every solo reporter needs, and giving them away.

Professional rate sheet

PDF + editable

One page, letterhead-ready. Appearance fees, page rates by turnaround, cancellation and travel terms — laid out the way national agencies present theirs.

Line-item invoice

PDF + editable

Pages, appearance fee, travel, exhibits, rush — itemized clearly, with your business details and payment terms built in.

The tool itself is real — and in private beta

These templates are step one. The full system is already built and in use — real reporters logging real jobs, generating real invoices, tracking who's paid. We're currently onboarding a small group of beta testers before opening it up more widely.

  • Auto-generated invoices from your job details
  • A single view of who's paid, who's late
  • Delivery-deadline reminders, so nothing slips
