I've been working on Free Invoice Generator, a simple tool for freelancers and small businesses who just want to create a professional invoice without having to learn complicated accounting software.
While building it, I kept coming back to a simple question:
What are the features people actually care about when creating an invoice?
You read. You nod. You move on. Nothing sticks. Two weeks later, that "insight" you were excited about? Gone. You might as well have scrolled past a meme.
We've convinced ourselves that capturing information is the same as learning it. It is not. It is the illusion of productivity.
