Designed specifically for Content Creators

Creative work flows between filming, editing, and planning without clear time boundaries

Log time easily: 'Add 4 hours video shoot for Brand Deal X' via MCP Server.

No idea how many hours each video or podcast actually takes

Create projects per content piece. Track scripting, recording, editing separately.

Desktop-first time tracking software is left unused when content creators are away from the computer

Native iOS and Android apps with one-tap timer, offline mode and Apple Watch support.

Content work happens at studios, on location, and at home

Track from any location. Tag time by project, brand, and content type.

Creating content for multiple clients

Allocate hours to each project. Clear client billing records.

Without project-level tracking, content creators never know which jobs are actually profitable

Every tracked second is filed against a project, task and client with its own hourly rate.

Understanding time distribution per project and content type requires manual analysis

Ask AI Insight: 'How many hours did I spend on editing vs. filming this month?'

Pricing sponsor deals without knowing your time cost

See actual hours per content type. Set rates based on real production time.

86% of content creators now use creative generative AI, with 76% reporting it has accelerated the growth of their business

See what our users have to say about Timesheet.

"Best and easiest tool to track everything you need, Lots of Options Automations and quality of Life. Altough the Last Update Made the Theme and Widget a lot uglier, it's still the best Tool by Miles apart from any competitor"

L. M.

"This app is very good support for everyone who needs time planning. Also for small businesses and craftsmen who use an order/billing program for which no dedicated app is available. The extensive range of functions is really good. I can recommend this app as a user since April 7, 2022."
