Kosmo

Kosmo is a project management and invoicing platform for Freelancers and Creators

Freelancers and creators have a ton of things to worry about. Project management shouldn’t be one of them. We are helping new and established freelancers to stay organized and productive. Kosmo is simple to use and reduces the time they’ll have to spend on administrative tasks like setting up contracts or sending invoices.

Our Story

Kosmo was founded in 2021 in Austin, TX by Rika and Tim Osterbuhr. At that time we were looking for a tool that could help us with admin tasks like sending contracts, creating time reports and invoicing work hours.

After trying various tools we constantly ran into the same issues of:

Setting up complex workflows
Advertised features that just didn’t work
Boring designs and limited customization
Very high prices (especially on annual plans)

Generally we were surprised how cluttered and complicated these “polished” tools were. So we set out to build our own solution.

Current State

A beta version of Kosmo has been developed, is currently being used by freelancers and in totals has ~350 registered users. However, at this point, we are still actively talking to current and potential users to learn about their pain points and understand what their ideal solution would look like.

Additionally, we have shifted some of our focus towards marketing and the response has been great so far.

“Honestly, we’ve never seen a free or even paid project management tool that incorporates all of these elements into a single system, much less do it so well. It’s seamless, intuitive, beautifully designed, and a huge time saver. To be clear, this is not a sponsored post, nor are we receiving any affiliate commissions or any other incentives to rave about Kosmo as much as we are – it’s simply too good to not share!” – 1stWebDesigner

Finally, we want to increase the size of our team this year and are really looking forward to meeting new team members and hearing lots of new ideas.
