The work is the easy part. As a freelancer, the hard part is everything around the actual work: finding work that fits, pitching it well, following up at the right time, and making sure you actually get paid. Most tools help you manage projects you already have. Very few help with the rest. So I built Rendr, a Mac app for the business side of freelancing. Today I'm opening a small private beta. Here's what it does: → Job finder: Searches open job boards, the careers pages of companies you want to work for, and your Contra feed, then scores each posting against your resume and explains why it fits. → Site audits: Paste a business's website and Rendr checks its speed, search basics and accessibility, then writes a review and a short outreach email. → Applications: A tailored resume, cover letter and application answers in about a minute. Every line comes from your real resume and shows where it came from. → Proposals and Pipeline: Track every lead to a signed proposal, draft proposals with packages and pricing, and get a follow-up drafted when a proposal goes quiet. → Money: See what's come in, which invoices are open or overdue, and every subscription you pay for, with a heads-up before renewals. → Command: Your day in order, with a short daily briefing. With many more features to come! It's private by design. There's no account and no Rendr server; your clients, proposals and files all stay on your Mac. AI features run on your own Claude API key, and Rendr drafts but never sends anything on your behalf. Everyone in the beta uses it free while it runs. After the 2 month beta, this will be a one-time purchase of $79 for lifetime access. I have a personal mission to build products that accelerate people's lives, and I'm not interested in subscription models for that. If you freelance on a Mac (macOS 12 or later), request access at gorendr.com (http://gorendr.com) and I'll send you the install file and invite code. I'd love your honest feedback!

As a freelancer, keeping everything that runs your business organized gets harder as the business grows. Money coming in and going out, client details, project files, new leads, job applications. It adds up fast, and it gets overwhelming. So I built Rendr, a personal AI-powered macOS app that keeps my whole business in one place, so I spend less time managing and more time designing. What it does: • Command Center: a daily briefing of what needs my attention, and why • Pipeline: tracks leads from first contact to signed work, with AI-drafted proposals and follow-ups • Clients: every client's history, files and notes in one hub • Money: payments, open invoices and payouts, synced from Contra • Job search: Contra jobs plus open job boards, matched to my skills and rate • Applications: tailored resumes, cover letters and pitches, written only from my real experience • Site audits: reviews a prospect's website and turns the findings into a pitch email in one click • Work library: tagged portfolio files, with the best samples suggested for each pitch • Backups: automatic, every day, to Dropbox It runs on my Mac, and it never sends an email, invoice or message on its own. I review everything first. Still building, with more to come.
