Invoice Generator

What This Skill Does

The Invoice Generator is a comprehensive tool designed to automate the creation of professional, clean, and accurate invoices. It manages the entire billing workflow, from capturing business and client details to calculating totals, taxes, and payment due dates. Whether you need a simple invoice for a one-off project or a recurring billing system, this skill handles the heavy lifting by generating outputs in both clean Markdown for quick communication and styled HTML for professional PDF export. It stores all generated invoices locally in an organized directory, ensuring you have a clear paper trail for your records and accounting needs.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/1kalin/ai-invoice-generator

Use Cases

• Freelancers & Consultants: Quickly generate project invoices after completing milestones without manually editing document templates.
• Small Business Owners: Maintain a professional image with consistent, branded invoice formats and automated payment term tracking.
• Recurring Service Providers: Effortlessly manage monthly retainers by using the history tracking feature to replicate previous invoice structures with updated date and sequence numbers.
• Financial Documentation: Automatically organize billing history into a local invoices/ directory, making it easier to track outstanding payments and summarize earnings.

Example Prompts

1. "Create an invoice for Acme Corp. They owe $1,500 for the website design project completed today. Use Net 30 terms and include my saved business information."
2. "Generate a recurring invoice for the Marketing retainer client for this month, using the details from last month's invoice, but update the date and invoice number."
3. "What is the current status of my outstanding invoices? Please show me which clients are past their due date."

Tips & Limitations

• Tip: Always provide the tax rate if applicable; the skill will handle the math automatically, but it relies on your input to ensure legal compliance.
• Tip: Save your business information once to avoid re-entering it for every new invoice. The skill remembers your profile automatically.
• Limitation: The skill performs calculations based on provided inputs; always verify the final generated figures before sending them to clients.
• Limitation: While the skill generates HTML for printing, it does not currently offer direct email sending capabilities, though the generated markdown can be easily pasted into your preferred email client.
