Billy vs. ProSaldo.net: AI invoicing or Austrian bookkeeping?
ProSaldo.net is a classic among Austrian business tools: invoicing, cash-basis accounting, VAT returns (UVA) and FinanzOnline integration in one place. Billy is an AI invoicing app — focused on getting your invoices written in seconds and actually paid.
The honest framing: if you want to do your own bookkeeping including UVA, ProSaldo.net gives you the complete Austrian package. If you mainly want to write professional invoices fast and leave the books to your tax advisor, Billy gives you more automation for the money.
Why freelancers pick Billy over ProSaldo.net
ProSaldo.net is an accounting product with an invoicing module. Billy puts the invoice at the center — and automates the part that otherwise slips: following up.
- Invoice from a prompt: "Invoice Huber GmbH €2,000 for consulting" — done
- Automatic dunning: the AI assistant reminds and escalates late payers on its own
- Professionally designed templates with live preview
- §11 öUStG mandatory fields, small-business rule and reverse charge preconfigured
- Compliant for German clients too (§14 UStG) — without a second tool

When ProSaldo.net is the better choice
To be fair: ProSaldo.net is deeply rooted in the Austrian tax system — UVA filing and FinanzOnline integration included, with a 30-day trial. If you do your books entirely yourself, that is a real argument. Billy deliberately does not cover that part.
