Written by the checker for a first version. Paste it into Vibecode as is, or change it to make the app yours.
Build a web app for small business owners who need invoicing, expense tracking and time tracking. The main screen should have three clear tabs: Invoices, Expenses and Time. In Invoices, let me add client details and line items, calculate totals and open a print-friendly preview. In Expenses, let me enter a date, description, category and amount, then search the records and see total spending. In Time, let me start and stop a timer or add time manually, with a client or project name on each entry. Use a clean navy and white design with clear labels and readable tables. Include realistic sample clients, invoices, expenses and time entries. Keep this first version focused on these three tools, without live payments or email sending.

Vibecode builds a first version from one prompt, and the checker would start with these parts: create and preview invoices with client details and line items; record expenses with dates, amounts and categories; track time with a timer and manual entries. Plan on a weekend for a working first version with its real features.
Vibecode's first build is free for new accounts that sign up with Google or Apple on the web or the iPhone app, as the account's first project: one build of about 10 minutes with up to 3 features, on sample data. After that you need credits, from a paid plan or auto-reload. For your own version of FreshBooks, the checker lists these costs: Vibecode Plus ($20 a month); Stripe account (fees per payment).
FreshBooks provides established bank connections, payment partner arrangements and a support team that a homemade invoicing app would not inherit.
