Clickmap for Freelancers: Click heatmaps and session replay you own forever

Click heatmaps and session replay you own forever.

Freelancers expense a dozen subscriptions — proposals, contracts, invoices, time tracking — against irregular income. Owning the tools outright removes a whole line of fixed costs.

The tool this job usually means renting is Hotjar, at $39/mo — roughly $468 a year, every year. Clickmap does the job for a one-time $49 — running on infrastructure you control.
