Zoho Invoice is a 100% free cloud-based invoicing solution designed to help small businesses with invoicing, tracking expenses, and accepting online payments. Key features include project billing, time tracking, reporting, customizable templates, and a client portaI. Teams using Zoho Invoice can track estimates, convert them to invoices, and send reminders to clients to complete their outstanding payments. Additionally, users can create tasks, collect advance payments for projects, and keep track of their invoice history.

Assembly is the AI-powered platform for professional service firms, from accounting and bookkeeping practices to agencies and consultants. It combines a branded client portal, a simple CRM, and an AI app builder that lets your firm add any software it needs without a dev team. Clients get one branded place for messages, files, forms, tasks, contracts and e-signatures, and invoices they can pay online. Your team runs on a CRM with automated reminders and an AI Assistant that knows full client context. When your firm needs something the portal doesn’t do yet, describe it.
