TrackingTime Overview

Connect time tracking, client work, financial control, and people operations in one workspace.

Written by Carla

TrackingTime is the time tracking software that runs as the operational back office for agencies, professional services, and every company that sells hours. Projects, tasks, timesheets, approvals, retainers, expenses, invoicing, time off, time cards, and client reporting work together, so your team can turn recorded hours into reliable business data.

Use that data to bill clients, control budgets, understand profitability, and prepare payroll—with a clearer view of what each client costs and delivers before the work is over.

Track time your way

Track time live, add hours manually, plan entries in advance, or use automatic tracking to help reconstruct your day.

TrackingTime is available through web, desktop, mobile, and browser extensions, so each person can use the method that fits their work.

Organize projects or keep your existing workflow

Teams that need lightweight project management can organize client work directly in TrackingTime using projects, tasks, task lists, and Kanban boards.

Already using a project management tool? Keep your workflow. TrackingTime adds time tracking, costs, approvals, and reporting around it.

Explore Apps & Integrations, including connections for Microsoft Teams, Planner, Azure DevOps, Asana, and other tools. Available connections include browser timers, calendar integrations, and project synchronization, depending on the tool.

Connect client work to financial results

Understand what your team’s work costs and what should be billed:

  • Rates and costs: configure billing rates and internal costs to understand revenue and profitability. Rates & Costs

  • Retainers: manage recurring client agreements in billing periods and review hours, costs, and profitability throughout each cycle. Retainers

  • Expenses: record project spending alongside worked hours, distinguishing billable expenses from internal costs. Expenses

  • Invoicing: create invoices from recorded work and customize them with your business details. Invoices

Turn time data into useful reports

Use Timesheets to review recorded hours, filter the information you need, and prepare data for billing, payroll, or internal analysis.

Client Reports bring together a client’s projects, worked hours, financial results, and invoice information.

Add custom fields to capture information specific to your business, and export reports for other processes.

Give clients visibility while keeping internal information private. Publish selected time data through Shared Reports, with the relevant detail for each audience.

Manage approvals, attendance, and time off

Keep project time and people operations connected:

  • Timesheet approvals: review, approve, or reject recorded hours before using them for billing, reporting, or payroll. Approvals

  • Time cards: maintain attendance records covering working hours, breaks, overtime, and time off. Timecards

  • Work schedules: define expected working hours for your team. Work Schedules

  • Time off: manage leave, policies, and holidays. Time off

TrackingTime provides payroll-ready time data that you can use in your payroll process.

Automate processes and connect AI assistants

Connect TrackingTime to your wider workflow through Zapier, Make, or the public API.

The TrackingTime MCP server connects compatible AI assistants and coding agents to your workspace. You can use natural language to log hours, query projects and tasks, and work with your data without leaving your AI tool.

See TrackingTime MCP Server for AI Assistants for supported actions and connection instructions.
