Yes. The free version makes a complete invoice in your browser with no account. A one-time $9 Pro version adds quotes, all four layouts and removes the watermark.

Is it an Invoice Ninja replacement?

For solo freelancer invoicing — yes. It is not a full platform with recurring invoices, client portals or multi-user access.

Do I need to install anything?

No. It is a single HTML file that runs in any browser.

Completely. Nothing is uploaded — it all stays on your computer.

Can I export for my accountant?

Yes. Export a CSV or print a PDF.

Offline Invoice Ninja Alternative — No Account, Nothing Uploaded

Open source vs. offline-file: a different kind of private

Invoice Ninja is a well-respected open-source invoicing solution. You can use the hosted cloud version (account required) or self-host it (server required). Either way, there is infrastructure to run and data stored somewhere.

InvoicePro is the minimal alternative: a single HTML file with no server at all. Open it in any browser and you have invoicing — logo, tax, discounts, 12 currencies and four layouts — stored entirely in your browser's local storage. Pay $9 once for Pro. There is nothing to host, maintain or log in to.
