How do I ask a freelance client for a testimonial?
Name the work you delivered, ask what changed for the client, and give them a short draft or a few questions to respond to. Confirm the final wording and where it may appear before publishing. Praise is Nydaymuse’s free offline HTML desk for wins, request drafts, and publishing permission.
A small desk, not another platform
Turn a happy finish into a clear next step.
Praise is a free, offline HTML tool for freelancers who want a repeatable way to request testimonials and reviews without handing client notes to another SaaS app.

Frequently asked questions
Does Praise send testimonial requests automatically?
Praise helps you prepare requests with email templates. You review the text and send it yourself.
Can I publish a generated testimonial draft as a client quote?
Ask the client to review and approve the wording first. A draft is a starting point, not evidence of what a client said. Record their permission for the places where you plan to publish it.
Can I back up my Praise records?
Praise stores records locally and includes JSON export. Keep an exported backup before clearing browser storage or changing devices.
Make the ask part of delivery.
