4

Send and collect

Built by freelancers, for freelancers

Why we built Experi

We didn't set out to build another software company. We were just frustrated.

Every month, we sent the same invoices to the same clients. Same amounts. Same descriptions. But it was always manual, repetitive, draining.

Then came the awkward part: chasing payments. Uncomfortable, time-consuming, easy to put off. Yet cash flow is everything.

"Every tool felt like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut."

Read the full story

Built from real frustration

We run hosting and recurring projects. We experienced the pain firsthand: repetitive invoicing, awkward payment chasing, scattered tracking.

Customer-driven development

We started with our own needs: recurring invoices, automated reminders. Then we listened to real users and added VAT, CIS, projects, expenses.

Transparent & trustworthy

UK-based, GDPR compliant, no hidden fees. We're a real business (Anna Moore trading as Experi, Send, Surrey) building real solutions.

"Less admin. More work that matters."

That's why we built Experi. And we're just getting started.

Customer stories

Experi has been easy to use, and invoices are simple for my clients to understand. The platform evolves as my needs have. Having automated sending of invoices has been a major time saver.
Director, Local Village Care
I've been freelance for just over a year now and Experi has made invoicing so much easier. It's really simple to use, I can save all of my different clients in one place and creating invoices only takes a couple of minutes. What really stands out though is the customer service. Every time I've had a question or run into an issue the team has replied incredibly quickly and always with a solution straight away. They're so friendly and genuinely helpful, which makes such a difference when you're running a small business. I'm really glad I found Experi and would definitely recommend it to any freelancers or business owners looking for a straightforward invoicing system!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Experi really free?
Yes. The Free starter plan includes 5 invoices total, 5 quotes total, up to 3 clients, and 3 manual payment reminders total. These allowances do not reset monthly. No credit card is required to sign up.
How does automated invoice chasing work?
Set a reminder schedule once (e.g. 3 days before due, on the due date, 7 days after). Experi automatically sends polite, professional payment reminders to your clients by email. You never have to write an awkward follow-up again.
Can I use Experi if I'm VAT-registered?
Absolutely. Experi supports standard-rate (20%), reduced-rate (5%), and zero-rate VAT. You can set VAT per line item, and your VAT number appears automatically on every invoice. We also support reverse charge VAT for construction.
What happens when a client doesn't pay?
Experi goes beyond basic reminders. After automated chasing, Pro users can estimate statutory interest for an eligible B2B debt, generate an editable Letter Before Action, and export an organised evidence pack - all from the invoice page. We also provide guided next steps for money claims in England and Wales.
Is Experi suitable for sole traders and small businesses?
Yes. Experi is built for UK freelancers, sole traders, and micro-businesses who'd rather be working than wrestling with software. GBP is the default on Free; Pro adds 20 currencies. Invoice numbering is HMRC-compliant, and features like CIS and late payment interest are available where you need them - all the compliance, none of the accounting complexity.
