The Brief Case
Every creative freelancer knows the spiral: How do I price this? Am I charging enough? What even is a profit margin? Pricing is one of the biggest bottlenecks in a freelancer's business — and it shouldn't be.
The Brief Case is a 3-step tool built entirely in Figma Make that takes a designer from zero to a client-ready proposal in under 5 minutes.
Step 1 — Know your number
An hourly rate calculator built on your real financial data: personal expenses, business costs, desired salary, and billable hours. No more guessing.
Step 2 — Build your project
A brief generator that structures your scope: deliverables, revision rounds, rush fees, contractor costs, installments, and timeline — all feeding into your pricing automatically.
Step 3 — Send with confidence
A clean, personalized, client-facing proposal with an interactive timeline and payment schedule built in. Profit margin stays private. Only the right numbers reach the client.
Workflow:
Built using Figma Make with iterative prompting, design system styles pulled from an existing Figma file, and a multi-step UI flow connecting all three stages.

Pricing should be empowering. Not vomit-inducing.
Briliant idea @natalia! I wont this product already. We need this!

Most independent studios lose high-ticket clients because their website doesn't match the quality of their work. But a $10,000 agency redesign isn't the only answer.
I'm gearing up to launch CraftVra Studio. To kick things off, I’m taking exactly 3 pilot clients to fully deploy our Nuvra framework—a premium dual-engine system that merges cinematic portfolios with a seamless commerce shop.
I will handle the full Expert Setup, CMS migration, and branding for a flat $250 (normally $599). You get a massive digital upgrade without the agency timeline or DIY headache.
🔗 Live preview of the architecture is in the comments.
Send me a DM with "NUVRA" to claim a setup slot.
I love your use of color and composition here.
