Timely

Overview

Timely is automatic time tracking software built for consultancies, agencies, and SaaS businesses. It captures every minute of work in the background using its AI-powered AutoSheet, eliminating the need for manual timers and guesswork-based timesheets.

Unlike traditional time tracking tools that rely on users starting and stopping timers, Timely auto-completes timesheets and auto-allocates time to projects and clients. This allows leaders to access accurate, trustworthy time data while teams focus on their actual work instead of administrative overhead.

How It Works

Timely runs in the background on each user's device and automatically captures every minute of work across apps, websites, and documents. The AI engine drafts a complete timesheet, categorizes entries by project and client, and surfaces them for one-click approval. Managers review and approve timesheets without chasing team members for missing or inaccurate entries.
