Start the timer right where you work — on the task itself in Freelo. Hours flow automatically into your project report, invoicing data, and team capacity overview. No copy-pasting from Excel, no separate time-tracking tool.
Stopwatch right at the task
The statement writes itself
Invoice by reality
Time tracking means measuring the time your team spends on specific work — a task, a project, or a client engagement. In Freelo, you start stopwatch right next to the task you're working on. Once you stop it, the logged hours flow straight into your project report and feed both your invoicing data and margin overview.
Time is short. So don't waste it and message me right now. I'll advise you on how to report.

You charge clients by the hour and need an precise overview of how many hours you've logged. Right in the task you have a stopwatch that remembers the rate for each person and project separately. One export from your reports makes the perfect basis for invoices.
You monitor project budgets and team workload. In the reports you can see how many hours the team has worked, who has spare capacity and who is drowning. You can set rates for multiple projects at once in the Business plan. You manage your margins in real time, not just by deadline.
You need to see where the money goes in the company and where it actually earns. In reports, you can track costs by project, client and person - from a single job to the company's overall margin. You make decisions based on numbers, not feelings.
Open the task, click the arrow and start the timer. Or use the keyboard shortcut ALT+Shift+S. Forgot to start the timer? Just enter the time manually — Freelo handles formats like 2:20, 0830, or 2.5. When you start tracking a new entry, the previous one saves automatically.

The project captain sees an overview of hours by person, task and project. You can filter the report by period, project, author and currency and export to CSV. The same spreadsheet works as backup for client invoices and payroll accounting. One export, two uses.

Set an hourly rate for users and specific projects and Freelo will remember it for future reports. The report summary serves as the basis for invoicing, where the client can see exactly how many hours went into each task and at what cost. You invoice based on reality, not on estimates.
Arrange a consultation on rates
In the Business plan, you adjust the rate across multiple projects at once, instead of adjusting each one separately. You can lock other members' timesheets so they don't override their own. The captain, company captain, and project manager can see everyone's timesheets. Members choose which colleagues can see their tracked time.

You create a project, tasks in it. For each task, set an assignee and a deadline. That's all you need to get started.
Open the task and click the arrow in the top bar. When you're done, stop the timer by clicking the STOP square.
The project manager can see how many hours the team has already spent on the task, who is free and who is overloaded. Margins and budgets are updated in real time.
At the end of the month, filter reports by client, export the invoicing data, and issue an invoice based on reality — not estimates.

From the report overview, filter by period, project or currency and export the CSV. The spreadsheet includes tasks, hours, rates and total amount - send it to the client as an attachment to the invoice so they know exactly what they're paying for. Issue the invoice itself in your billing tool or consult with our crew.
You can manually complete the historical reports for the respective tasks. For bulk import, email our support crew - we will advise how to convert the data so you don't have to manually overwrite the hours.
