For UK freelancers & sole traders

Say the money bit.
Kindly, clearly, once.

Fair Ask drafts the client messages you keep putting off — the quote, the deposit, the “could you just…”, the rate rise, the client who went quiet. Tell it what's happening; get a calm, ready-to-send draft in under a minute.

No sign-up for the trial. Full access: £15 one-off (or 21,000 sats) for 12 months, opening soon.

Experiment #1 from the Noor Lab · built on Claude

The problem

Most late payments start before the invoice.

A vague quote, no deposit, a “small extra” you didn't price, terms nobody wrote down. Then the awkward bit lands at the end, when it's hardest to say. FreeAgent's research found only about half of invoices sent by UK freelancers and small businesses were paid on time. Fair Ask helps with the conversations that come first.

01

Quotes & deposits

Present a price with confidence, ask for a deposit without sounding suspicious, and put clear payment terms in writing.

02

Scope creep & discounts

Say yes to the idea and price the extra. Hold your rate, or trade scope for budget — politely.

03

Rate rises & quiet clients

Give existing clients fair notice of new rates. Follow up a proposal that went silent, then close the loop.

Example conversations

What you type. What you get.

Illustrative examples, shortened. Every draft is yours to edit before sending.

Good to know

Questions you might have.

Does Fair Ask send messages to my clients?

No. It drafts; you copy, edit and send from your own email or phone. You stay in control of every word.

Will it get me paid?

It can't promise that — nobody can. It helps you say clear, professional things early, which makes the money conversation easier. How a client responds is up to them.

Is this legal, tax or financial advice?

No. Fair Ask is an AI writing tool. For contracts, disputes, tax or debt, speak to a qualified adviser, Citizens Advice or GOV.UK. It will tell you when a question needs one.

What AI is it, and what happens to what I type?

Fair Ask is built on Claude, made by Anthropic. Your messages are sent to Anthropic's API to write the reply. Fair Ask doesn't store your conversations — they live in your browser tab. Avoid pasting sensitive personal data you don't need to.

What's the 120-message limit?

It's a fair-use cap that keeps the price low. Most freelancers need a handful of drafts a week. It resets on the 1st of each month.

I already chase overdue invoices with Good Chaser — do I need this?

They do different jobs. Good Chaser prepares formal letter packs once an invoice is overdue. Fair Ask helps with the everyday conversations before that: quotes, deposits, scope, rates and follow-ups.
