Track Freelance Hours and Bill Clients
Freelance work is messy — multiple clients, different rates, billable vs non-billable hours, invoices to reconstruct at the end of the month. Timely keeps it simple: clock in to a client, clock out, get an invoice-ready report.
One tracker, every client
- Add a client with their own hourly rate (or fixed-fee project).
- When you start working, tap the client and clock in.
- Switch clients with one tap if your day jumps between projects.
- Mark hours billable or non-billable — only billable hits the invoice.
Invoice-ready in seconds
- Export hours per client as CSV or PDF, ready to attach to an invoice
- See month-to-date billable hours and revenue per client
- Spot non-billable creep — meetings, admin, scope drift
- Year-end totals for taxes, organized by client
Built for solo work
- Designers and developers tracking project time
- Writers and editors billing by the hour
- Consultants juggling retainers and one-offs
- Coaches, therapists, and trainers tracking session time
Frequently asked questions
Can I track multiple clients?
Yes. Add as many clients as you want, each with their own rate and billing settings.
Does it generate invoices?
Timely exports invoice-ready reports (CSV/PDF). For full invoicing with payment links, pair it with your invoicing tool of choice.
Can I split billable and non-billable hours?
Yes. Tag any shift or session as non-billable and it's excluded from invoice totals (but still tracked for your own records).
What happens if I work on two clients at once?
Most freelancers track time sequentially, but you can manually log overlapping sessions if needed.
Is there a desktop version?
Timely for Mac is in development. The iPhone app is the fastest place to track on the go.
