The difference is Freelancy has native versions for OS X, Windows and Linux. Many people still prefer desktop apps to web services, because they give them the feeling ‘it's my own’ and works in any internet conditions, also it could be more convenient to work with a desktop app rather than with a tab in a browser.

Some screenshots, workflow would be nice to have before I sign up. I sort of get what it does, but not quite. I do however appreciate the brevity of the site. Not much BS, straight and to the point. I was tempted to try it out just to see what it was. I'm not sure if the lack of product info will encourage more people to try your product. But ultimately you'll have to figure out how it affects conversions As my comme…
Looks like I definitely should think about a screencast! :)
Looks nice, but I actually moved which time-tracker I use only a week ago, to Toggl[1].

FWIW, every idiot pricing things at $9.99 has turned $9 into the same as $10 in my internal price-justification equation. At that level I've hit the point where I need to be able to justify it to myself and it causes me to waver. $5 is less than the coffee I bought (and Especially with the prolificity of well-established competitors I would keep the price lower, at least until the product is more established.
