Freelance invoice software with branded PDF templates
Create, brand and track invoices in one place, then download them as clean PDFs in English or Arabic. NovaDraft does not collect payments; it makes the invoice you send look worth paying.
Free plan: 10 invoices a month. No card needed.
What every invoice includes
Everything a client or accountant expects, entered once and reused.
Automatic numbering
INV-2026-0001, then 0002. The counter restarts each year and never repeats on your account.
Client details
Name, email and a snapshot of the address as it stood on the issue date.
Line items
Description, quantity and unit price per row. Totals are calculated for you.
Tax and discount
One tax percentage per invoice for VAT or sales tax, plus an optional discount.
Issue and due dates
Both printed on the PDF, so the payment deadline is never in dispute.
Notes
Bank details, payment terms or a thank-you line, in your own words.
Status
Draft, sent, paid, overdue or cancelled. You set it, the totals follow.
AI-written descriptions
Ask AI to draft a line-item description from the project context, then edit it.
How it works
Four steps from a blank screen to a PDF in your client's inbox, exactly as the app works.
- 1
Add the client
Create the client once with their email and address. Every invoice pulls the details from that record.
- 2
Build the invoice
Add line items with quantity and unit price, then set tax, discount, issue date and due date. Let AI write a description if you are stuck.
- 3
Pick a template and preview
Choose one of 27 templates, check the preview in English or Arabic, then download the PDF.
- 4
Track it to paid
Mark it sent, then paid or overdue. The Invoices page and dashboard totals update as you go.
27 invoice templates, your brand on Pro
Every template is a 16:9 landscape deck rendered on our servers, so it looks the same in every PDF viewer. Classic and Pitch are free; Pro unlocks the other 25 and adds your branding.

Know what is paid and what is not
Each invoice carries one status: draft, sent, paid, overdue or cancelled. The Invoices page totals what is still outstanding; the dashboard shows paid revenue next to pending amounts. On Pro, Analytics adds a monthly revenue trend and an invoice status breakdown, so slow payers stand out early.
Arabic invoice template, proper right-to-left
Set the document language to Arabic and the whole invoice flips: right-to-left layout, Arabic labels, Arabic number and date formatting, on any of the 27 templates. The app runs in Arabic too, so a freelancer in Cairo, Riyadh or Dubai can bill a local client in Arabic and one in Berlin in English from the same account.
Who it is for
Freelancers in MENA and worldwide
One account, two languages. Bill in Arabic or English with an address block your client's accountant will accept.
Small agencies and studios
Clients, projects and invoices live together. Ten invoices a month on Free, unlimited on Pro.
Consultants
Itemised scope with quantities and rates, a tax line, a due date, and the winning proposal in the same tool.
