What we're exploring
Late payment solutions
Chasing invoices is exhausting. Waiting 60+ days is worse. We're researching whether there's a better way for freelancers to manage cash flow when clients pay late - or don't pay at all.
Income gap support
One month you're fully booked, the next you're scrambling. We're exploring what would actually help freelancers bridge those unpredictable gaps - beyond just 'save more money'.
Contract risk scanner
Bad contracts cost freelancers thousands. Our free scanner flags risky clauses in plain English - dodgy payment terms, unlimited liability, IP grabs, unfair termination. No signup.

Common questions
"I've been freelancing for over a decade. I've signed contracts I didn't understand, chased invoices for months, and worried about what happens if a client goes bust owing me money. Every freelancer I know has similar stories. We deserve better tools and protection. That's why I'm building WorkMoat - the safety net I wish I'd had from day one."
