A quotes, contracts and invoices app for freelancers
Connect GOAT to ClaudeThen recreate the workflow in your own account.

This recipe is written for a freelance designer in Berlin, but the same steps work for any business: just describe yours.

GOAT builds and publishes the app from one prompt. Then you add any feature with Claude Code, and GOAT prepares the launch content. Every prompt has two buttons: Do it with Claude and Do it with GOAT.

Before you start

Names and numbers in the example views are illustrative; your own run fills in with your business details.

You need

  • A GOAT account. Building and publishing use your account's credits.
  • Claude Code (for step 2). You can do the other steps from the GOAT chat.

Connect GOAT to Claude

  1. In your terminal: curl -fsSL https://www.thegoat.bot/cli/install.sh | bash
  2. Then goatbot login. You approve in the browser; GOAT is added to Claude Code automatically.

Step 1. Build the app with GOAT

What it does

  • Turns your request into pages, data and design.
  • Builds the app and publishes it at its own address.
Prompt · Claude
Build a quotes and invoices app for my freelance design business.

- Service catalogue: logo, brand identity, social templates, web design; with prices
- Create a quote: client, line items, validity, payment plan; it goes to the client as a link they approve with one click
- An approved quote becomes a project: milestones, due dates
- Payment tracking: pending, overdue, paid
- Clean, professional, black and white

1. When a quote is approved, generate a simple service contract (client and items filled in), downloadable as PDF.
2. Prepare a polite reminder email draft for payments more than 3 days overdue (don't send).
3. Show this month's earnings and outstanding payments in the dashboard.
Keep the design, and explain the changed files when you're done.
