Freelancer Essentials: Self-Hosted Invoicing and Scheduling
Invoices, a booking page, file storage and passwords — the back office of a one-person business.
From $34.99/month, managed and monitored for you.
What is included
Freelancer Essentials installs 6 applications on your beacon. Every one is open source, runs under your own domain, and shares a single sign-on login.
Invoice Ninja
Invoices, quotes and payment tracking for clients. Self-hosted alternative to FreshBooks.
Cal.com
Booking page that shares your availability and schedules meetings. Self-hosted alternative to Calendly.
Nextcloud
File sync and sharing, calendar and contacts, across desktop and mobile. Self-hosted alternative to Google Drive.
Vaultwarden
Password manager that works with the Bitwarden apps and browser extensions. Self-hosted alternative to 1Password / LastPass.
Authentik
Single sign-on, so one login works across every app in your beacon.
WOPR Dashboard
The control panel where you manage every service without touching a terminal.
Pricing
One monthly price covers the applications, the server they run on, updates, monitoring and remediation. Storage tier is the only variable.
| Tier | Storage | Per month |
|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 | 50GB storage | $34.99 |
| Tier 2 | 200GB storage | $49.99 |
| Tier 3 | 500GB+ storage | $74.99 |
Who this is for
Freelancer Essentials is built for freelancers running a business. It replaces FreshBooks, Calendly, Google Drive, 1Password / LastPass with software you control.
You do not administer the server. WOPR provisions it, keeps it patched, monitors it and remediates failures. You work from the dashboard, and your data stays yours — exportable, portable, and never sold. That is what digital sovereignty means here: not a slogan, but who holds the keys.
