Build a recurring-invoice schedule for retainers, subscriptions, and managed-services contracts. Pick the cadence, start date, and end condition; the tool projects every upcoming invoice, computes annualised revenue, and exports the full schedule alongside the per-cycle template.
01 — What you create
Set the per-cycle template once. The tool projects every upcoming invoice with its issue date, due date, and auto-numbered invoice ID. Annualised revenue and lifetime value compute as you type.

02 — How it works
Recurring revenue dies when invoicing slips. This tool fixes that with a single canonical template, automatic per-cycle invoice numbers, and a projected schedule the client can countersign. Set it once; bill it every cycle.
Frequency (weekly / bi-weekly / monthly / quarterly / half-year / annual), start date, payment terms. The due-date math is automatic — every cycle's due date computes from its issue date and the payment terms.
End after N cycles, end on a specific date, or run open-ended until cancelled. Open-ended schedules show annualised revenue; bounded schedules also show a finite lifetime value.
Add per-cycle line items. The same template generates every invoice — auto-numbered (NWB-RTN-0001, 0002, 0003 …). Add a how-to-pay block, terms, and notes once and they print on every cycle.
03 — Built for retainers
Weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, half-year, annual. Pick one and the schedule projects every issue and due date forward.
End after N occurrences (e.g. 12 monthly retainer cycles), end on a specific date (annual contract expiring 31 Mar), or run open-ended until cancelled (subscription).
Set a prefix (NWB-RTN) and a starting number (0001). Every projected invoice picks up the next number automatically — no clashes, no manual sequencing.
See per-cycle total, annualised revenue (cycles per year × per-cycle), planned occurrences, and lifetime projected value. Bounded schedules show finite LTV; open-ended schedules show annualised run-rate.
Draft only (you send manually), email draft to me (I review before sending), auto-send (tool emails the client every cycle). Picks your invoicing-discipline level.

04 — Common questions
The schedule is a forward-looking plan — every invoice that will issue under this cadence, with its number, issue date, due date, and amount. The PDF you generate today shows the schedule so the client knows exactly what to expect over the contract term. Whether each cycle's invoice is actually sent automatically depends on the send-mode you pick (draft / email draft / auto-send) and whether your billing stack supports auto-send.
Weekly = 52 invoices per year (every 7 days). Bi-weekly = 26 invoices per year (every 14 days). Choose carefully — the annualised revenue figure changes substantially: a weekly INR 10,000 retainer is INR 5.2 lakh per year; a bi-weekly INR 10,000 retainer is INR 2.6 lakh per year.
Lifetime value requires a finite endpoint. For "never until cancelled" subscriptions, we don't know when (or if) it ends, so we show the annualised run-rate instead — cycles per year × per-cycle total. That's the right number for projecting recurring revenue at the company level.
You set a prefix (e.g. NWB-RTN) and a starting number (e.g. 1). The tool pads the number to four digits and increments per occurrence: NWB-RTN-0001 on the first cycle, NWB-RTN-0002 on the second, and so on. The numbers are predictable so your accounting system can be told to expect them, and the client sees a clean sequence each month.
Yes — set the discount type (percentage or flat) and value. The discount applies to every cycle, so a 10% discount on a monthly INR 1,38,650 retainer reduces every monthly invoice by INR 13,865. The total project value reflects the discounted per-cycle amount.
