What is Timely?
Automatic AI time tracking for agencies and consultancies.
Who is Timely best for?
Timely is best for agencies and consultancies that bill by the hour and want time tracked without timesheets.
Agencies that bill by the hour
It records time on client work in the background and drafts the timesheet, so fewer billable hours go unlogged.
Consultancies watching utilization
Reports show billable share, overtime and capacity across people and projects, which helps with staffing and pricing calls.
Teams wary of monitoring software
Each person's timeline stays private until they approve entries, and Timely takes no screenshots and logs no keystrokes.
Managers of project budgets
Time or money budgets per project send alerts at set milestones, so overruns show up before the invoice goes out.
