What is RateHive?

RateHive is a project estimation tool designed for freelancers, studios, and small agencies. It replaces outdated spreadsheets, allowing users to build estimates as a grid of tasks by role, measured in hours or days. The tool provides rate cards at the workspace level for consistent numbers across projects, eliminating the need to retype day rates. Users can also compare different versions of the same estimate, such as MVP against full scope, and send clients a link instead of a PDF attachment.

The free plan offers unlimited projects, version history, share links, and exports with your own logo and company details. It's designed to be fully usable, not just a demo. Paid plans offer additional features like variants, document languages for client-facing quotes, team comments, and removal of the small "Created with RateHive" credit.

Users can test the editor at ratehive.app/try without creating an account or providing an email.
