Keep the details you use every day

Most small business invoices repeat: the same handful of customers, the same services, the same payment terms. Hectile stores those three things so a new document is a matter of choosing, not retyping.

Estimate first

When the customer needs a price before saying yes

Send an estimate with the lines, the total and a valid-until date. When the customer agrees, record the acceptance. That alone does not create an invoice — you choose when to create the invoice draft from it, so an accepted estimate never turns into a bill before the work is done. The estimate stays Accepted while the invoice is a draft and shows Converted once that invoice is finalized.

Business quotations use the same Estimate document type.

How estimates work
The invoice itself

Prepare, finalize, and send if you want to

01 · Draft

Prepare and review

Pick the customer and services, set the issue and due dates, add a note. While it is a draft it has no number and everything is editable.

02 · Issued

Finalize

Finalizing assigns the next official number for that brand — NS-INV-000033 here — and fixes the financial details. It is now a document you can rely on.

03 · Optional

Send, share or download

Email it from Hectile with the PDF and a secure link, copy the link into your own message, or download the PDF and hand it over in person.

Payments

Record what came in. Know what is still due.

Customers pay by bank transfer, card machine, cash — outside Hectile. When they do, record the payment against the invoice. One payment or several, in full or in part: the balance and status follow the arithmetic, so you can see at a glance who still owes you.

Your team

Two people can run the billing, not just you.

A paid organization can have up to 20 members with two roles: Admin (settings, brands, members, billing) and Member (customers and documents). Everyone works on the same customers and documents. During the 7-day trial the organization has one member — you.

One plan

$12/month or $120/year per organization.

Unlimited invoices, estimates and customers; unlimited brands; up to 20 members. No per-seat or per-brand fees. Start with the 7-day free trial — one primary brand, one member. Add a payment method to begin; your plan starts when the trial ends unless you cancel first. Your billing country at checkout decides which price applies.
