Why we built this
We built Miru
because we needed it.
"We're a Ruby on Rails consultancy in Pune, India. We bill clients across the US, Europe, and Asia by the hour. We tried Harvest — too expensive at scale. Toggl — no invoicing. FreshBooks — feature-gated everything behind tiers. Spreadsheets — broke at 10 people."
"So we built Miru. For ourselves first, then open-sourced it for everyone. It tracks time, generates invoices, handles expenses, manages our team, and gets us paid via Stripe. One tool. $1 per person. That's it."
"If you bill by the hour, this is the tool we wish existed when we started."
