Founder of Bonsai (YC W16, www.hellobonsai.com) here.
We're built from the ground up to handle invoicing for freelancers and come with lots of little details to help you save time and get paid. E.g., automatically apply late fees, lock files on a invoice until paid, recurring invoices and auto payments, and more.
We (Bonsai, YC W16) built something like this specifically for freelancers. You enter the parameters of your project and we'll generate a contract using a variety of pre-set clauses. https://www.hellobonsai.com/freelance-contracts
I used to beat myself up about not remembering details of books, even ones I read only a few months ago. I still try to take notes and revisit those often, but PG's take on this help ed reduced my anxiety about it:
> Reading and experience train your model of the world. And even if you forget the experience or what you read, its effect on your model of the world persists. Your mind is like a compiled program you've lost the source of. It works, but you don't know why.
When we first launched we didn't have enough data for Europe, but we do now and will update it soon with rates for most European countries and a few others.
Hey all, Matt from Bonsai (YC W16) here. We provide contracts, proposals, invoices, and other tools to freelancers, mostly developers and designers.
We used our anonymized data to break out what freelancers earn with different experience levels, skill sets, locations, etc: https://www.hellobonsai.com/rates
Bonsai (YC W16) | Full Stack Product Engineer | SF or REMOTE
Bonsai (hellobonsai.com) helps freelancers simplify their lives with an integrated contract and payments workflow. You’ll join a technical, experienced team that’s backed by some of Silicon Valley’s top investors (YC, Index, Matrix, et al) and building the future of work.
We’re looking for a generalist backend engineer with a hacker mentality, 3+ years of experience building full-featured web applications, and a deep familiarity with Ruby. Experience working with payment API's and processing is a huge plus, as is previous startup and/or freelancing experience.
Offering competitive compensation and willing to sponsor a visa for the right candidate if they'd like to be in SF. Remote is ok too. Email matt at hellobonsai dot com if interested.
To clarify, these are rates that freelancers quote via our contract tool and are paid for via our invoicing tool, so it's pretty verified. We also allow users to submit their rates, but we weight those much less than the data verified by client payments.
We're a YC company that put together a visualizer for freelance engineering and design rates. It draws on a few thousand data points from our freelance invoice and contract product.

It's worth noting that most schools of economics are heavily indebted to physics. This came from a desire to increase economics' perceived rigor, and led to the (mis)appropriation of some core concepts[1].
