From frustration on the job site to a free invoicing program.
FatturaFacile wants to give tradespeople, small businesses and professionals a fast invoicing program that follows the rules, is free and truly theirs.
Why should someone who writes 15 invoices a month pay for a program with 500 buttons?
It started by watching colleagues and friends in the trades struggle in the evening with slow, complicated programs, just to get paid for their work.
Programs made for big companies
An electrician, a plumber, a gardener or a consultant does not need to run a big company. They need a clear quote in one minute, while still at the customer's, and a correct invoice with one click.
Your data should not be held hostage
Today many programs are paid like rent: if you stop paying, you can no longer work with them and sometimes cannot even see your customers. We think work tools and data should stay with the people who work, with no expiry date.
“A program for tradespeople should be like a good screwdriver: it is there when you need it and does not ask for a subscription to turn a screw.”
Subscription programs
- ✕Monthly or yearly fee that rises at every renewal
- ✕Hundreds of buttons a small business does not need
- ✕Often do not work without internet
- ✕Customers and invoices on other people's servers
FatturaFacile
- ✓Free, with no limit on documents
- ✓Quote in one minute, invoice with one click
- ✓You can install it on your own server
- ✓Your data stays yours and you can export it
Simple to use, solid inside
The interface is simple on purpose. Behind it, the program is carefully built to be safe, fast and easy to maintain.
Your data stays where you put it
In the web version, data is on the server where the program is installed. If you install it yourself, it stays yours. We use no advertising tracking tools.
- ✓No advertising tracking
- ✓Automatic backup every night, last 7 kept
- ✓Manual backup and restore too
Two countries, one program
FatturaFacile was designed for Italy and Switzerland from the start, not adapted afterwards.
- ✓Italy 🇮🇹: e-invoice file (FatturaPA)
- ✓Switzerland 🇨🇭: QR-bill payment slip with QR-IBAN and Swiss VAT
- ✓Swiss francs and euros
Tidy, checked code
The code is split into clear parts and automatic checks run on every change. This makes the program more reliable and easier to improve.
- ✓Separate parts: data, rules, interface
- ✓Automatic tests and checks on GitHub
- ✓Can also be installed on your own server, to work with several people
A common good for tradespeople, students and businesses
FatturaFacile is not a startup chasing investors. It is a project built together with people who work and people who teach.
Free, with no limits
The program stays free and will have no artificial limits on invoices or customers. People starting a trade should find no barriers.
Features on request, free
If a tradesperson tells us about a real need in their work, we look at it and, if it helps more people, we add it for free for everyone.
Schools and apprentices
We offer the code to technical schools to study a real program, and the program to business schools for simulations, with no licences.
Our path
From the first trials to an open project, for Italy and for Switzerland.
Listening to people who work
The idea comes from watching plumbers, electricians and small professionals struggling with complicated subscription programs.
The first trials
A first prototype to make invoices quickly, even away from the office.
E-invoicing and QR-bill
Italian e-invoicing (FatturaPA) and the Swiss invoice with QR-bill are added, with VAT rates.
Open code, schools and local help
The project becomes public. We talk to schools and build a list of technicians and fiduciaries who help locally.
