Six reasons freelancers choose Arpixa
The differences that show up in everyday client work — not just on a feature checklist.
Start free, not just a trial
Arpixa has a permanent free plan you can run real client work on. Moxie has no free plan at all — it offers a 14-day trial and then requires a paid subscription starting at $10/month annual.
Real free planGet paid globally and in India
Arpixa ships dual Stripe and Razorpay payment paths for global card payments and India-first INR billing. Moxie connects Stripe and PayPal, covering cards, ACH and 81+ currencies, but has no native Razorpay rail.
Stripe + RazorpayScale the team without a seat cap
Arpixa Pro includes unlimited collaborators at $29/month. Moxie’s Teams plan caps at 5 team members for $40/month ($32/month annual) — beyond that, Moxie has no higher tier.
Unlimited on ProAI-native client workflow
Generate proposals, briefs, replies and summaries from your workspace context, with full review control. Moxie includes a single AI assistant across the platform, less woven into the client-facing writing agencies do daily.
AI Drafts built inA deeper branded client portal
Arpixa’s portal covers timeline, deliverables, files, invoices, payments and messages with visibility controlled section by section, available on the free plan. Moxie’s white-labeled client portal only unlocks on the $25/month Pro tier.
Per-section controlCapture demand before it is a client
A dedicated Lead Inbox gives inbound work requests a home before a formal client record exists, then converts into a client, proposal and project. Moxie’s sales pipeline centers on tracking opportunities once a prospect exists.
Lead Inbox includedPlan-by-plan pricing
Arpixa starts free and scales from $12/month. Moxie has no free plan and gates its client portal behind the $25/month Pro tier.

Where each platform pulls ahead
Beyond the checkmarks — how the two products actually feel, including the area Moxie wins.
A free plan you can build on, not just a trial clock
Arpixa has a permanent free plan that supports 1 active client per month, core features and 500 MB storage — enough to validate the full workflow before paying anything. Moxie has no free plan; every user gets a 14-day trial, after which continuing requires Starter at $10/month (annual) or higher.
- Arpixa free: usable indefinitely, no trial countdown.
- Moxie: 14-day trial only, then a required paid plan.
- Both are affordable at the entry tier once you do pay — $10-12/month.
Freelancer-specific extras: a phone line and tax basics
Credit where it's due: Moxie was built specifically for solo freelancers and it shows in small, thoughtful touches Arpixa doesn't currently match — a dedicated Communicator business phone line (US, Canada, UK) that keeps client calls off your personal number, built-in basic accounting with a profit-and-loss report, and income-based scholarships for freelancers who can't afford the subscription.
- Communicator phone line with answering service, included from the Pro tier.
- Basic accounting and expense tracking built into the core product.
- Location- and need-based scholarship pricing for freelancers who qualify.
A portal on the free plan vs gated to Pro
Arpixa’s branded client portal — timeline, deliverables, files, invoices, payments and messages — is available on every plan, including free. Moxie’s white-labeled client portal, along with its custom domain and phone line, only unlocks once you upgrade to the $25/month Pro tier.
- Arpixa’s portal ships free; Moxie’s requires the Pro plan.
- Per-section visibility keeps internal notes private while sharing the work.
- Moxie’s Starter plan ($10/month annual) has no client-facing portal at all.
Get paid the way your clients pay
Arpixa ships both Stripe and Razorpay payment paths, making it a strong fit for teams billing globally and across India. Moxie connects Stripe and PayPal for card, ACH and international currency payments, but has no native Razorpay rail for India-first billing.
- Stripe powers card payments on invoices for both platforms.
- Razorpay support in Arpixa simplifies India-first and INR billing.
- Moxie’s 81+ currency support is a genuine strength for globally distributed freelancers billing in cards and PayPal.

Still weighing it up? Here's what teams ask
Straight answers to the questions that come up most when choosing between Arpixa and Moxie.
Moxie is a freelancer-focused platform with thoughtful extras like a dedicated business phone line and basic accounting, priced flat from $10/month annual with no free plan. Arpixa is an AI-native agency operating system with a permanent free plan, a branded client portal available on every plan, a dedicated Lead Inbox, and dual Stripe + Razorpay payments, starting at $12/month Starter. Moxie leads on freelancer-specific touches; Arpixa leads on the free plan, portal availability and payment reach.
On the free tier, yes — Arpixa has a permanent free plan and Moxie has none, only a 14-day trial. At the paid entry level the two are close: Arpixa Starter is $12/month ($10 annual) and Moxie Starter is also $12/month ($10 annual), though Moxie’s Starter has no client portal, which only unlocks on Moxie Pro at $25/month.
Yes. Moxie includes a dedicated Communicator business phone line (US, Canada, UK) so client calls do not go to your personal number, basic accounting with a profit-and-loss report, and income-based scholarship pricing for freelancers who qualify. These freelancer-specific touches are not currently things Arpixa offers.
No. Moxie offers a 14-day free trial but no permanent free plan — after the trial, you need a paid subscription starting at Starter ($12/month, or $10/month billed annually) to keep using it. Arpixa has a real, permanent free plan with 1 active client per month, 2 team collaborators and core features at no cost.
Arpixa includes both Stripe and Razorpay payment paths, so teams can collect card payments globally and INR payments through Razorpay. Moxie integrates with Stripe and PayPal, supporting 81+ currencies, but does not offer a native Razorpay rail.
Arpixa is built around connected client, project, invoice and file records, so the core structure maps cleanly from Moxie. Moxie-specific tools like the Communicator phone line and basic accounting reports do not have a direct Arpixa equivalent. For complex setups, contact hello@arpixa.io for guidance before moving.
Arpixa scales more cleanly for teams: Pro at $29/month includes unlimited collaborators. Moxie’s Teams plan tops out at 5 members for $40/month ($32/month annual) with no tier above that, so agencies expecting to grow past a small team will outgrow Moxie’s structure.
Both offer one, but availability differs. Arpixa’s portal is included on every plan, including free. Moxie’s white-labeled client portal, along with its custom domain, only unlocks on the $25/month Pro tier — Moxie Starter ($12/month) has no client-facing portal.
Arpixa is AI-native rather than AI-bolted-on. It can draft proposals, briefs, replies and summaries from your workspace context, and you keep full review control before anything is sent. Moxie includes a single AI assistant across the platform for tasks like summarization and writing support, less deeply integrated into client-facing document generation.
Arpixa is month-to-month, with annual billing available for a lower effective rate. There is no long lock-in — you can upgrade, downgrade or cancel as your client load changes. Moxie is also cancel-anytime, with no lock-in on either monthly or annual billing. Confirm current terms on each vendor’s pricing page before subscribing.
