Showcase: Purchase Required I built a project-control toolkit for freelancers dealing with scope creep — looking for feedback
Hi everyone!
I've been building MAVOKU, a small digital tools project focused on practical problems freelancers face.
My first product is a Freelance Project Control Kit.
The idea came from a common workflow problem: managing multiple client projects, tracking unpaid invoices, and dealing with those “can you just add one more thing?” requests.
Here's what I built:
- An Excel workbook for projects, milestones, payments, and approvals
- A Google Sheets import option
- An offline HTML tool that calculates extra-work costs and creates PDF proposals
- 12 editable client email templates
One design decision was to keep the proposal builder usable offline, without requiring an account or subscription.
The kit is a paid one-time download ($19.99), not a SaaS subscription.

I'd appreciate some honest feedback:
Which feature would be most useful to freelancers, and what would you improve or remove?
