Time Tracking for Event Planners, Site Visit to Teardown

One tap starts the timer at the venue, mileage and expenses attach to the same task, and nothing needs a signal to save.

Designed specifically for Event Planners

Juggling multiple events makes it hard to track which client gets billed for what

Log time easily: 'Add 3 hours planning for Wedding X' via MCP Server.

Multiple events running simultaneously makes time tracking chaotic

Separate projects for each event. Switch between events with one tap.

Desktop-first time tracking software is left unused when event planners are away from the computer

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

Planning work happens at venues, client meetings, and remotely

Track time from any location. Tag entries by event, client, and task type.

Long event days with irregular hours

Flexible clock in/out. Track setup, event, and teardown separately.

Without project-level tracking, event planners never know which jobs are actually profitable

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

Vendor coordination across venues, catering, and AV teams has no shared time tracking for event prep

Team project sharing keeps all vendor and planner hours per event in one place. Real-time sync across all parties.

Venue visits, vendor meetings, and event days all need separate tracking

Geofencing automation for venue visits and event day hours.

50% of meeting planners globally plan to use AI technology in 2025, up from 45% in early 2024

What Timesheet Handles

Time tracking, reports, invoices, exports, automation, HR rules, and AI logging in one system.

Simplified Time Tracking

Start the timer at the venue walkthrough and keep it running through load-in, from your phone, because an event day never happens at a desk.

  • One-tap time tracking
  • WLAN & Geofencing automation
  • Scheduled break reminders
  • NFC tag support

Project & Task Management

One project per event. Venue search, supplier briefing, technical, the run sheet and the day itself are tracked as separate tasks.

  • Unlimited projects
  • Task categorization
  • Team collaboration
  • Calendar integration
Project and task list in Timesheet with tracked hours per entry

Accurate Feedback & Analytics

Hours per event and per task, so you find out that supplier coordination alone took two days before you price the next wedding.

  • Daily, weekly, monthly reports
  • Income tracking
  • Trend identification
  • Export to Excel & CSV
Timesheet analytics dashboard with tracked hours and earnings per project

Professional Invoice Generation

Invoice the hours the event really took, with planning and on-site delivery split out, and travel and expenses on the same PDF.

  • Generate invoices from time entries
  • Add expenses and notes
  • Track payment status
  • PDF export

Comprehensive Data Export

Export a single event as a PDF for the client file, or the whole season as CSV when your accountant asks for the year.

  • Excel export
  • CSV export
  • PDF reports
  • API access
Timesheet export screen with field selection and output format options

Automatic Time Tracking

An NFC tag in the production office or a geofence at the venue starts the timer, so a fourteen-hour show day records itself.

  • Location-based tracking
  • WLAN detection
  • Background timer operation
  • Persistent quick actions
Automatic time tracking rules in Timesheet using geofence, Wi-Fi, and NFC

HR-Ready Time Tracking

Rest periods, overtime and leave for the crew stay visible during event week, early enough to change the rota rather than explain it afterwards.

  • Contracts & employment models
  • Live working-time limits
  • Leave & overtime balances
  • Absence requests & calendar
Timesheet HR view with contracts, working time limits, and absence requests

AI-First Time Tracking

Between supplier calls, tell ChatGPT: "Add 3 hours planning for the Schmidt wedding", and it books against that event.

  • Log time in one message
  • Control the timer from chat
  • Instant project answers
  • Reminders, daily & weekly

Loved by Thousands Worldwide

See what our users have to say about Timesheet.

"2024: This app has made some amazing steps over the years. Even while I don't use it much anymore, it's a great project! 2018: More and more often it doesn't show time working until stopped (timer stays at 00:00)"

Mind Dilution

"Makes my life easier. Good price per month, easy to use, and reliable"

Trisana

"Very good app i can track my hours now i now i know that my company owe me hours"

MR Charlie

"Great app for what it does. Super convenient and great for working several projects. Like what others have said, my only gripe is the subscription model for the pro versiom. A bit too much as it's annual, would have preferred a one time $20 cost or so."

Justin Halonen

"Thank you for this great app! I appreciate how easy and fast it is to start the timer, the nightly backup to a spreadsheet, the reporting, and the customizable settings. I don't use the Pro version, just the free."

Jenese B

"It is easy to maintain the working hours. The detail deep is good and not to deep, because it's interesting that you had worked 8h 18min and nobody is interested in how many seconds you worked. I'm using it for over 8 years and I'm still happy with it."
