Frequently asked questions

It is not accounting software. It does not generate invoices, track hours, or do your bookkeeping and tax. It's the layer on top that answers the questions those tools don't: am I on track for the year, how booked am I, what have I forgotten to invoice, and who's overdue? Clarity, not bookkeeping.

Nope. Keep invoicing and doing your books exactly how you do now. Tideplan sits alongside them and gives you the one bird's-eye view across all of it. Nothing to migrate, nothing to rip out.

No, and it isn't trying to. Tideplan is deliberately manual: you log an invoice when you send it, and mark it paid when the money lands. No bank logins, no integrations to set up, no security hoops. It's a light way for a freelancer with a handful of clients to keep track of who they're working for, and whether each job has been billed, paid, or still needs chasing.

About five minutes. Set your currency and your income goal for the year, add a client, add a job you've got booked, and your dashboard lights up. No import, no onboarding call, no credit card.

Freelancers and independent workers who bill their own clients: designers, developers, photographers, contractors, translators, consultants, in any field and any country. If you send invoices and juggle a few clients at once, it's for you. If a platform or an employer handles your billing, it's probably not.

Free covers up to 2 clients, 20 jobs, and 20 invoices a year, enough to properly try it on your real work. Plus ($9.99/month) removes all the limits. Either way, every account starts with 30 days of Plus, no credit card, so you can see if it actually helps before paying a cent.

Yes on both. You can cancel whenever you want, with no contract and no hoops, and you just drop back to the Free plan with your data intact. Prefer to leave for good? Delete your account and everything's wiped within 30 days.

It's private and encrypted, with HTTPS and encrypted storage throughout. Payments run through Polar, so we never see your card details. And we don't run ads, track you around the web, or sell your data. Ever. The full details are in our privacy policy.

Hey, that'd be me, Miguel. I kept seeing freelancers do great work and then lose the thread on the money, so I built the tool I wished they had. It's still small and new, but I'm actively working on it, and honestly, I've had a lot of fun building it. I read every message that comes into hello@tideplan.io myself. Staying small is part of the point: it keeps the tool simple and me easy to reach.

Stop wondering where the money went.

Add a client and a job, and your freelance income finally makes sense.
