Bonsai is best used for handling contracts, invoices, and client communication for a one-person operation without hiring a separate scribe for each task. A solo adventurer taking on client work needs the paperwork handled without a whole guild's back office. This is built for exactly that scale. It lands at #20 of 51 on Solos Gems (7.2/10) for client management.

How it helps the realm
A solo adventurer taking on client work needs the paperwork handled without a whole guild's back office. This is built for exactly that scale.
Boons
- Contracts, invoices, and time tracking live in one place instead of three separate scrolls.
- Templates for contracts and proposals save real time versus drafting from nothing.
- Built specifically for freelancers, so it doesn't drag in bloated team features you'll never use.
Curses
- As your operation grows past a solo act, you may outgrow what it's built for.
- The all-in-one approach means each individual feature isn't as deep as a dedicated specialist tool.
