Import CSV from any time tracker, send invoices in minutes

Freelancers track hours in Toggl or Harvest - then copy them into spreadsheets to invoice clients. Olivi fixes that. Drop a CSV from any tracker - entries map to clients, group into invoices, and get emailed with PDF attached. Four clicks. Built for solo freelancers billing multiple clients: - Smart CSV import with client/project mapping. - Keep tracking of your unbilled time logs. - Email composer with templates and PDF attachments. - Per-client rates, currencies, and tax settings.
It all started as a learning project - a way to try out new technologies in web development. As a freelancer with years of experience, I decided to build a straightforward system for managing clients, projects, invoices, and time logs with a built-in time tracker. As the architecture grew, I realized this could become a standalone product, and I started looking for my niche.
Pretty quickly I understood that I couldn't compete head-to-head with the market giants - Harvest, Clockify (freelancer and agency market), or Invoice Ninja and FreshBooks (invoicing market).
So I started searching for a narrow niche - that small corner of the market where the workflows just weren't user-friendly enough. Such a simple flow - turn time logs into an invoice and send it to a client - still takes way too much time. I studied competitors' interfaces, and none of them left me satisfied.
That's why I'm presenting Olivi - a project I've been working on for six months, focused on giving users that smooth, pleasant experience of turning time logs into a ready-to-send invoice, delivered straight to the client's inbox. Along the way, you'll find email templates, tax rates, preset payment details, automatic balance tracking, and more - all built to remove friction from your monthly billing.
I'm asking you to give the app a try and see how the workflow feels. Every piece of feedback will be read the same day. I'll do my best to respond to questions as quickly as I can.
P.S. I just really like olives.
Does the CSV mapping stick around for repeat imports from the same tracker, or do you have to redo the client matching every single time?
@kumsalmnyj the clients and projects are recognized and created automatically during first import. You only need to have a column "Client" or "Customer" in your CSV in order to successfully map customers.
During the import you see the full picture of imported data - clients, projects, dates, time logs, and rates. You can review, edit or remove them. Or don't do anything at all, just click "Import".
Olivi works great with CSVs from Toggl, Clockify and Harvest - we recognize most of their columns. If column's name isn't recognized Olivi will ask for a manual match.
Finally someone fixed this annoying step, dragged my old Toggl CSV in and had an invoice drafted in under a minute. The per-client tax and currency settings are exactly what I needed for my mixed US and EU client roster.
@yeterkeyq Thanks for trying it out! Is there anything you'd like to see added to Olivi?
