Source-available invoicing and time-tracking app built with Laravel
Invoice Ninja v5 is a comprehensive invoicing, quoting, project management, and time-tracking application. Deploy as SaaS or self-hosted with full feature parity.

Invoice Ninja v5 is a source-available business management platform built on Laravel, designed for freelancers, agencies, and small businesses that need professional invoicing, quoting, expense tracking, and project management in one unified system.
Choose between hosted SaaS for instant setup or self-hosted deployment for complete control over your data and infrastructure. The platform supports mobile apps (iOS, Android, F-Droid) and desktop clients (macOS, Windows, Linux) alongside the web interface. All Pro and Enterprise features are included in the self-hosted version, with an optional $30/year white-label license to remove branding.
The application follows Laravel best practices with a RESTful API, comprehensive test coverage, and modular architecture. Contributions are welcomed through the active community on Slack, Discord, and GitHub. Installation options range from traditional server deployments to Docker, Cloudron, and one-click installers, making it accessible for various technical skill levels.
When teams consider Invoice Ninja, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.
Looking for a hosted option? These are the services engineering teams benchmark against before choosing open source.
Freelance Consulting Business
Track billable hours, generate professional invoices, and provide clients with a branded portal to view quotes and make payments online.
Digital Agency Project Management
Manage multiple client projects with Kanban boards, track team time, create itemized quotes, and invoice based on actual hours worked.
Self-Hosted Financial Data Control
Deploy on private infrastructure to maintain complete control over sensitive financial records while accessing all premium features without SaaS fees.
White-Label Invoicing for Resellers
Remove Invoice Ninja branding for $30/year and offer invoicing capabilities under your own brand to clients or as part of a service bundle.
The hosted SaaS version provides instant setup with managed infrastructure, while self-hosted gives you full control over deployment and data. Both include identical Pro and Enterprise features.
No. All Pro and Enterprise features are included in the self-hosted code at no cost. The optional $30/year white-label license only removes branding from client-facing areas.
Yes. The iOS, Android, and desktop apps (macOS, Windows, Linux) fully support self-hosted deployments and connect to your server via the API.
Basic server administration and familiarity with PHP/Laravel, Composer, and web server configuration. Docker and one-click installer options simplify deployment for less technical users.
Invoice Ninja v5 is source-available, meaning the code is publicly accessible and modifiable, but the license may have restrictions. Check the repository for specific licensing terms.
