Designed specifically for Architects

Project phases overlap and it's hard to bill accurately per phase

Tag time entries by phase (SD, DD, CD, CA) and generate phase-specific invoices.

Multiple projects with different fee structures running simultaneously

Unlimited projects with custom hourly rates. Track each project separately.

Site visits and travel time need separate tracking

Geofencing auto-tracks site visits. Tag travel time separately.

Creating monthly billing reports takes hours away from design work

Generate PDF invoices directly from tracked time with one click.

Clients need phase breakdowns for approvals

PDF timesheets show hours by phase. Easy approval and payment.

Architecture firms target a 77.5% utilization rate, but nearly 28% of firms with under $250K in billings don't track chargeability at all

What Timesheet Handles

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

Simplified Time Tracking

Design work, a site visit and a meeting at the planning authority each get their own entry. The timer keeps running offline where site coverage drops.

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

Project & Task Management

Set up a project per work phase, from concept through the permit application to site supervision. Each carries its own hourly rate and its own tasks.

  • Unlimited projects
  • Task categorization
  • Team collaboration
  • Calendar integration

  • Income tracking
  • Trend identification
  • Export to Excel & CSV
