Is it still worth building an invoice generator SaaS in 2025?

Hi friends

I’m a solo developer currently about 75% done building an invoice generator SaaS for freelancers and small business owners.

It started as a simple tool for myself something minimal, privacy-focused, and quick to use. But as I kept building, I realized… there are tons of invoice tools already out there 😅

Now I’m wondering is it still worth finishing and launching it?

Here’s what my version focuses on so far:

  • Minimal and fast UI

  • Simple subscription-based pricing (no complex tiers)

  • Privacy-first (no tracking, no data selling)

  • Freelancer-focused workflow — quick client and invoice creation, no bloat

I’m not trying to reinvent the wheel just make invoicing cleaner and lighter for solo creators and small businesses.

But I’d love to get your perspective:

Would you still use a new invoice generator today?

What would make one stand out for you in 2025?

If you’ve built a SaaS before how did you validate it before launch?

Any feedback or advice from fellow builders would mean a lot 🙏

if you can offer some that no one offers then you can even build a TODO SaaS too. You have to find out what is not provided by other SaaS but you can provide.
