Scroll through the toolbox. Every one is free to download today.
Type straight onto the invoice. We do the maths, the numbering and the PDF.
Everyone you work with in one friendly place, with what they’ve paid and what’s still open.
One big button. Start, work, stop. Your hours turn into an invoice with one more click.
Snap the receipt or drop the PDF. We file it in your folder and count the VAT you can claim back.
What came in, what went out, and how much to keep aside for the taxman. No spreadsheet needed.
Drag your to-dos from “ugh” to “done”. One board per project, confetti on every finish.
Every project on one page: milestones, a timeline you drag, who does what, and what is slipping.
Letters, payment reminders, proposals and simple agreements, with names and addresses filled in.
Your colours, a proper email signature and business cards you can print at home.
Every monthly bill in one place, and a nudge before anything renews.
Log business kilometres in seconds and see what they’re worth at tax time.
Tap plus and minus as things come in and go out. We warn you before the shelf runs empty.
Do your own marketing on proven marketing science: a brand profile, a year plan, a content calendar and insights from your invoices.
Do the work once. Busy carries it to the next step.
Start the timer from a task on your board.
Hours and passed-on costs land on a draft invoice, at the client’s rate.
A scan-to-pay QR code and a reminder if they forget.
Profit, VAT to set aside and the next 90 days, all filled in.
Designers, developers, writers, coaches. Track, invoice, get paid, see what you earned.
Bakers, florists, crafters, small web shops. Know your stock, keep your receipts, bill your regulars.
Two to ten people. Share one folder in Google Drive and plan, document and invoice together.
No installer, no sign-up, no credit card.
One small zip file with all thirteen tools. Unzip it anywhere you like.
Double-click index.html. That’s the whole installation. It even works offline.
Choose where your business lives. Pick a folder inside Google Drive and it syncs by itself.
The tools run on your own computer and save normal files in a folder you choose. We never see your clients, your invoices or your numbers.
Tick what you’d otherwise subscribe to. Typical prices for small-business plans.
What we’re building next. Free tools stay free; the AI comes with Olaf.
Share one business folder with your team and see who did what.
A 90-day plan, projects that stay on track, a weekly check-in and the work done with you. Get on the list →
Olaf is our AI expert for marketing and projects for small businesses. It works out where your business stands, makes a 90-day plan, runs your projects with you (the plan, a weekly check-in, a new plan when something slips, the update for your client), and does the work each step needs: posts, review requests, your newsletter, your local listing. It is built on proven marketing science, runs in your browser on your own Claude key, and costs €149 once. Get on the list.
The Studio gives you the tools to do your own marketing: a brand profile, a year plan, a content calendar and insights from your invoices. You do the work, and there is no AI in it. Olaf is our AI expert for marketing and projects, right inside Busy: it works out where your business stands, makes a 90-day plan, checks in with you every week, and does the work each step needs. Both use the same marketing science. More about Olaf.
No. Every tool, the Marketing Studio included, is free and complete on its own. Olaf is for owners who would rather be guided than figure out their marketing alone.
Yes. The website may show a few ads, which keeps the tools free. There are no ads inside the tools, your invoices or your documents, ever.
In a folder on your computer that you choose. Each tool saves plain files there. We have no copy and no way to see it. The free tools have no AI. If you use Olaf (the paid edition), what you ask it goes from your browser to Anthropic with your own key, and nowhere else. See the privacy page.
Yes. Install Google Drive for desktop and pick a folder inside it. Drive backs it up and keeps it in sync across your computers.
Chrome and Edge on Mac, Windows and ChromeOS save your business to a folder. Safari and Firefox can’t save to folders yet, so use the demo on this site to look around.
Share the folder through Google Drive and everyone sees the same clients and invoices. Team Mode is on the workbench.
They include what EU invoices need: numbers that count up, dates, both parties, VAT per rate and your VAT number. Check with your accountant for anything special.
All thirteen tools, free, in one small download.
