The platform is designed with simplicity in mind, allowing even those without a technical background to navigate and utilize its features effortlessly.
It was advertised as a free tool, and they just introduced a pro plan and limited all the features. :(
I've tried every time-tracking/invoicing app there is for freelancers, but when I finally tried AND CO I was instantly sold!
Both the web app and mobile app are a delight to use. They are fast and just work without any hiccups. The features are great and have helped me save a ton of time on admin work. Sending an invoice or a contract is a breeze. You also get a real, live human to ask for help! Need to invoice a client? Have a question about your taxes? Simply send a message to your CO and they will always have your back!
Their dev team is also great! I requested a couple features and they were released within a few weeks. That showed me that the team at AND CO listen to their customers and give me confidence to use this app for the long-term.
It's not often that I fall in love with an app. AND CO is the exception. Highly recommended.
I love the standardisation aspect. This is a really worthy aspiration, and has the potential to lead to better understanding between clients and customers.
I am also intrigued by the prospect of terms becoming so standard and well known that people can define their agreement simply by noting the areas that depart from the standard. Imagine signing an agreement that just says:
"The parties agree to the freelance standard terms, with the following exceptions:
- x; and
-y."
This practice already exists with ISDA standard terms for over-the-counter derivatives.
The UI for entering information is great and easy to follow.
The only thing that I worry about slightly is the disconnect form the 'form' type UI for entering information and the rather complex contractual language that it produces. For example, if I choose 'work for hire' as my IP setting, the only way to understand that this means I do not own the IP I create for clients is to read 3 paragraphs of fairly dense legal text. Interested to see if you find a way to bridge that gap.
I started playing around with the plug in and the app and love the use for it. I have a million litter tasks and the timer also helps me stay on track with my tasks.
All the speakers are amazing - I had so many a-ha moments. Every freelancer - new or old - can learn from this! And you can listen from anywhere :)
