Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I run a one-person software studio in India, and like most freelancers, my client work ran on handshakes: scope agreed over WhatsApp, invoices tracked in my head, and payments that routinely went 40+ days late — with nothing signed to point at when they did. Payday is the system I built to fix my own business. The loop: 📥 Paste a client's email or DM → AI extracts client, rate, deliverables, deadline into a structured deal 📝 It drafts a proper services agreement (scope, payment schedule, IP handover) → both sides e-sign in the browser 💸 Invoice any % as advance, the rest on delivery 🔔 Payment overdue? One tap drafts a polite reminder that escalates in firmness with each send, knows about part-payments, and references the signed contract My favorite part: every deal gets a magic tracking link — clients see progress, chat, and sign with no account needed. It completely killed the "any update?" messages. A few honest notes: it's India-first (₹ formats, Indian-law contract defaults, WhatsApp-centric workflows), e-signing is click-to-sign with an audit trail, and there are rough edges — I built it under deadline pressure. But it genuinely runs my studio's client work today. That deadline: Payday is competing in the Raj Shamani × Emergent Builder Challenge, where the top 25 is decided by upvotes — and voting closes in 2 days. If this product resonates with you, a 30-second vote there would mean the world to a solo builder: https://app.emergent.sh/showcase... There's a demo mode with a full sample workspace — sign up takes 10 seconds and you can explore everything without entering anything real. I'd love your feedback — especially from freelancers and studios: how do you handle clients who go quiet when the invoice lands? That tone of "firm but not rude" was the hardest thing to get right. 🙏
