Hello fellow translators.

For some time now I have been looking to find a tool to manage my translation jobs and invoices, but haven't found an option that I would be happy with, so I started to develop my own. The problem for me with the tools that I have looked into is the complexity. They often require me to input data that I don't really care about, show too much data, or make the common tasks harder than they should be.

Hello fellow translators.

For some time now I have been looking to find a tool to manage my translation jobs and invoices, but haven't found an option that I would be happy with, so I started to develop my own. The problem for me with the tools that I have looked into is the complexity. They often require me to input data that I don't really care about, show too much data, or make the common tasks harder than they should be.

So I set out to develop a simple tool for managing translation jobs and creating and tracking invoices (and nothing else). If you feel that you might be interested in this kind of tool, I would like to invite you to become a test user.

What does a test user do?

As a test user, you can use the functioning product to manage your translation jobs and to create invoices before the actual launch. You are not asked to perform any specific tests. All I'm asking is to provide a little feedback on what you think of the tool and let me know if you encounter some issues. As a thank you for your help, you will also get to use the tool for 1 year free of charge after its launch.

If at any point you feel that the tool is not for you, you are free to opt-out with no obligations.

If you are interested, please send me an email through my profile. If you have any questions about the project, I'd be happy to answer them in this thread.

Thanks Kari! Apr 18, 2018

I was just curious. I'm more than happy with the relatively new BaccS, so am not planning to change anytime soon. Good luck with your tool though!

Michael
