Unless you are an accoutant, you don’t want to spend much time noting the time for a project you have worked on. Let alone fiddle with a word processor to create invoices. There are many tools out there that do a magnificient job tracking time or creating invoices. Yet, I have not found anything that satisfied my needs.
On top of all things I wanted software that is not in the way, i.e. that is easy to use and does not require much attention. It has to run when I need it and push out PDFs with invoices. Bam! That’s it. I found some tools that got close, but ultimately they missed an important feature: multi-currency.
So I decided to create fugit. After using it for a couple of years for my own projects and clients, I thought it is time to get that thing out there. I’ve honestly been torn about selling if or offering it for free. In hindsight, I’ll need the money. It’s that simple. After spending 2 years on this software, it may at least generate some turnover. After all, the money supports more development — for which I have ideas.
