I built an AI tool that writes weekly client reports for you β€” here's what I learned

Hey IH community πŸ‘‹

I want to share what I've been building the past few months: WeeklyWrap β€” an AI-powered weekly reporting tool for freelancers and agencies.

The problem I was solving for myself:

Every Friday I was spending 2-3 hours writing the same type of report for each client. Copy-paste data, format it nicely, write a summary, attach charts... repeat x5 clients. It was killing my productivity and honestly my soul a little bit.

I looked for existing tools but everything was either too complex, too expensive, or not designed for freelancers.

So I built WeeklyWrap.


What it does:

  • Generates AI-powered weekly reports from your work data

  • Sends reports directly to clients via email (Resend)

  • Shows performance charts, quality scores, AI insights

  • Custom branding per client

  • Dark/light mode, timezone & currency settings per user


The tech stack:

  • Next.js 15 + TypeScript

  • Supabase for auth + database

  • Resend for transactional emails

  • OpenAI for report generation

  • Stripe for payments

  • Vercel for deployment

Total infrastructure cost: ~$20/month to run.


Where I am now:

v2.0 just launched with a full UI rebuild, AI insights, and one-click client email delivery. Still early but getting positive feedback.

Revenue: Pre-revenue, focusing on user acquisition first.
Users: Early testers onboarding now.
Goal: 100 paying users by end of Q3 2025.


What I learned building this:

  1. Ship ugly first. My v1 was terrible UI-wise but it validated the idea fast.

  2. Talk to your users. Every feature in v2 came from actual freelancer feedback.

  3. Automate the boring stuff. Not just for users β€” for yourself too. CI/CD, email triggers, Stripe webhooks.

  4. Dark mode matters more than you think. Freelancers work at night. A lot.


What I need help with:

  • How are you guys approaching cold outreach to freelancers?

  • Any good communities where freelancers talk about client management?

  • Pricing feedback: $15/month for Pro β€” too much? Too little?

Happy to answer any questions about the build, the stack, or the journey. AMA! πŸš€
