Bilby, the tax-invoice gatekeeper
Bilby is a free Australian tax-invoice tool for sole traders and contractors that checks ABNs, buyer details, dates, line items, GST, and invoice numbering.
Field notes
Bilby focuses on the compliance details that ordinary invoice templates leave to memory: issue dates, buyer identity, ABNs, per-line GST, and non-reusable invoice numbers. Its example separates taxable sales from a GST-free government fee and shows a deposit being deducted from the final balance. The public page describes a waitlist rather than exposing the invoice workflow itself, so the demonstrated sample is currently the clearest evidence of how the finished output is intended to work.
