Get paid before your client pays.
DayRate connects to your email, tracks freelance invoices automatically, and may offer early access to part of your earnings based on client payment history.
Run your freelance money by chat.
Add invoices, expenses, payments and client notes just by typing. Prefer forms? DayRate still gives you simple manual tools when you need them.
Cashflow without awkward client chasing.
DayRate sits quietly in the background. It helps you understand where your money is and gives you the option to access cash early when an invoice is eligible.
Connect your email
Use Gmail, Outlook, Microsoft 365, or forward emails to DayRate. We look for invoices, POs, terms and payment confirmations.
Track every payment
See what is outstanding, expected, overdue and paid without digging through your inbox or spreadsheet.
Access money early
If the invoice and client history qualify, DayRate can offer part of your earnings before the client pays.
Your freelance admin, handled by AI.
DayRate is built around a simple command bar. Type what happened, and DayRate turns it into structured invoices, expenses, payments and reminders.
Add invoices by typing
“Invoice Nike £350 for today’s shoot” becomes an invoice draft with client, amount, date and payment terms.
Log expenses fast
“Add £18 parking to Adidas job” becomes a tagged expense attached to the right project.
Track payments naturally
“Framer paid me today” updates your dashboard and clears the invoice from outstanding payments.
The plumber test.
You wouldn’t hire a plumber, let them fix your sink, then say: “Cool, we’ll pay you in 60 days.”
So why is that normal for freelance creatives?
Freelancers shouldn’t be the bank.
DayRate is built for creatives who value client relationships but still need clarity, control and better cashflow.
