ApeiroCraft vs Moxie
Looking for a Moxie alternative?
Moxie (formerly Hectic) is built for one person doing everything, and at $12 a month for the entry tier it is genuinely one of the cheapest ways to get proposals, contracts, invoicing, and time tracking in a single place. For a solo freelancer on a tight budget that's a real recommendation — and it includes time tracking, which we don't do at all.
Two ceilings show up as you grow. Moxie's top Teams tier caps out at five team members — so a studio hiring a sixth person migrates rather than upgrades — and the entry $12 Starter plan is a single-user plan with client portals gated to $25 Pro. There's also no permanently free tier, just a 14-day trial. ApeiroCraft is priced flat per workspace — $19, $79, or $149 a month regardless of headcount — with every feature on every plan, including the free one. Plans change capacity, never what you're allowed to use.

Choose ApeiroCraft if…
- You have a team, or expect one — Moxie stops at five users and ApeiroCraft's Agency plan goes to thirty for a flat $149.
- You don't want features held back by tier: every plan here includes proposals, CRM, invoicing, tasks, and notes.
- Your studio needs a shared knowledge base — notes with @mentions, attached to the same client records.
- You want the whole team on one flat bill instead of watching the price move with headcount.
Moxie is the better pick if…
- You bill hourly and need real time tracking with timers — we don't have it, and a proposal tool is a poor substitute for one.
- You want a client-facing portal where clients log in to see files and invoices; ApeiroCraft shares proposals and invoices as links instead.
- You're solo, budget is the deciding factor, and $12/month is the number that has to work.
- You like having scheduling, forms, and time tracking in the same tool and don't mind the five-user ceiling.
Seriously — if that's you, use Moxie. A tool you resent switching to helps nobody.
Common questions.
Is ApeiroCraft a good Moxie alternative?
For teams, yes — Moxie caps every workspace at five users, while ApeiroCraft's Team plan covers five members for $79/month flat and Agency covers up to thirty for $149/month. Both do proposals, e-signature, CRM, and invoicing. If you're solo and billing hourly, Moxie's time tracking and $12 entry tier are honestly hard to beat.
How much does Moxie cost in 2026?
Moxie's plans are $12 Starter, $25 Pro, and $40 Teams per month as of July 2026 (cheaper annually), each a flat price rather than per seat. Client portals start at the $25 Pro tier, Starter is single-user, and Teams tops out at five members. There's a 14-day trial but no permanently free plan. ApeiroCraft is free to start with no card, then $19, $79, or $149 per month flat for the whole workspace with no feature gating.
Does ApeiroCraft have time tracking like Moxie?
No. There are no timers and no hourly billing in ApeiroCraft — it's built around fixed-scope and retainer work, where the proposal defines the price. If your invoices are built from tracked hours, keep Moxie or pair a dedicated tracker with us; we'd rather tell you that than sell you a workaround.
Does ApeiroCraft have client portals?
Not with client logins. Proposals and invoices are shared as tracked links your client opens without creating an account — fewer steps for them, no password to forget. If a genuine logged-in portal is a requirement, Moxie's Pro tier does that and we don't.
What happens when my team outgrows five people?
On Moxie you migrate to a different platform, because no tier lifts the five-user cap. On ApeiroCraft you stay put: Team covers five members at $79/month and Agency covers up to thirty at $149/month, both flat per workspace rather than per seat.
