See the Hours Behind a Flat Fee
Tag research, drafting and editing separately, then compare the total against the fee you quoted. The timer keeps running while you write.

All Devices


Designed specifically for Writers
Creative writing flow gets disrupted when you stop to track time
After your writing session, tell Claude or ChatGPT 'Log 3 hours article writing for TechBlog' via MCP Server.
Manual time tracking wastes valuable work hours and leads to inaccurate billing
Automatic timers with geofencing and Wi-Fi triggers start tracking when you begin working.
Desktop-first time tracking software is left unused when writers are away from the computer
Native iOS and Android apps with one-tap timer, offline mode and Apple Watch support.
Writing projects have many phases, hard to know where time actually goes
Tag time entries by phase (research, drafting, editing) and see allocation charts.
Writers work from cafés, home, anywhere with inspiration
Same timer on all devices. Start anywhere, your data follows.
Writing sessions blend into undefined time
Clock in when you start, out when you stop. Clear boundaries.
Writing sessions run long without awareness
Background timer captures exact hours. Focus on writing.
Without project-level tracking, writers never know which jobs are actually profitable
Every tracked second is filed against a project, task and client with its own hourly rate.
“Professionals using ChatGPT on writing tasks finished 40% faster, and their output was rated 18% higher”
