Timely is a comprehensive time tracking and project management application designed to streamline workforce productivity, enhance accuracy in time logging, and simplify project management.
What Timely Does
Timely is an AI-powered time tracking tool that automates the process of logging work hours, reducing the need for manual input and minimizing errors. It is particularly useful for businesses looking to optimize their time management, improve billing accuracy, and enhance overall team productivity.Key Features
Automatic Time Tracking
Timely’s core feature is its automatic time tracking system, powered by the “Memory” app. This tool runs in the background on users’ devices, capturing their activities throughout the day. Users can then drag and drop these captured activities, known as “memories,” into their timesheets, ensuring accurate and comprehensive time logging without the need for constant manual updates.Manual Time Entries and Timer
In addition to automatic tracking, Timely allows users to create manual time entries where they can log hours, add notes, and associate projects and tags. Although less prominent, the app also includes a stopwatch-like timer, accessible when creating a new time entry.Timesheets and Reporting
Timely offers robust timesheet management, enabling users to view, filter, edit, and export timesheets with ease. The platform provides various reporting templates, including employee hours, monthly project reports, and custom company-branded reports. Users can also create their own dashboards to track specific metrics.Project and Client Management
Users can create multiple projects and clients, and log time against these entities. This feature includes detailed productivity and progress reports, helping managers visualize project health and budget status in real-time.Task Planning and Management
Timely includes an all-in-one task management system that allows managers to create tasks, assign them to team members, and track progress. The task planning dashboard helps in distributing workload fairly, preventing overworking and burnout, and ensures that employees are notified of their tasks via email or push notifications.People Dashboard and Team Management
The People Dashboard provides a comprehensive view of team members’ planned time, logged hours, capacities, overtime hours, and scheduling conflicts. This feature enhances time management and helps in building better relationships between employees and managers.Billing and Invoicing
Timely facilitates easy billing and invoicing by allowing users to set up billing rates, mark tasks as billable or non-billable, and integrate with accounting software like QuickBooks. This ensures accurate billing calculations and helps in tracking overall project budgets.Integrations
The platform offers extensive integrations with various business tools such as Google Calendar, Office 365, Trello, Jira, Zoom, and more. It also supports integrations with automation tools like Zapier and Make, enabling seamless data transfer and workflow automation between different applications.Privacy and Security
Timely prioritizes user privacy, ensuring that users have control over which information is made public. There are no screenshots or keystroke monitoring features, maintaining a respectful and non-intrusive approach to time tracking.Pricing
