Features

What WorkLog does, job by job.

Record the time, give it a place, read it back, keep budgets honest, act on what is slipping, and share the work with a team. This page lists all of it, and what WorkLog deliberately does not do.

Track

A timer for work as it happens, manual entries for work already done.

Timer: Kept on server time: survives a refresh, a closed tab and a switch of device. One running timer per person, start and stop from the keyboard, switch task in one step. A timer left running is flagged.
Manual entries: A date with a start and end, or just a duration such as 1:30, 1.5h or 90m. Edit, duplicate, or delete with undo.
Weekly timesheet: An entries list and a grid you fill in from the keyboard. Today, week and billable totals. Days under your daily target are highlighted.
On a phone: Starting, stopping and editing entries are designed for small screens.
Command palette: Open it with ⌘K or Ctrl+K.

Clients: Name, company, contact email, notes and a default rate. Archive when the work ends.
Projects: Client, colour, status, billable by default, hourly rate, a time budget and/or a money budget with an alert threshold. Restrict a project to chosen members if needed. Archiving keeps its history intact.
Tasks: Optional estimates, shown against the time tracked.
Tags: Lightweight labels that work across projects.

Understand

Reports that answer the question you actually have.

Filter: Date range, client, project, task, member, tag, billable.
Group: By day, week, month, client, project, task, member or tag.

Reports in detail

Control

Billable time, rates and budgets you can explain line by line.

BillableSolid. Counts towards value at the entry’s rate.
Non-billableHatched. Tracked and reported, never charged.

WorkLog uses the first rate that is set, in this order. The rate is stored on each entry when it is saved, so changing a rate later does not rewrite past reports.

Past the 80% alert

Used: 33 h 83%
Remaining: 7 h
Forecast: ~14 days

Example. The forecast is a straight line from the last 28 days: 14 h tracked is 0.5 h a day, so the remaining 7 h last about 14 days. Simple enough to check by hand. Money budgets work the same way.

Act

The dashboard shows what needs attention now.

Dashboard: Running timer, today, this week, the attention list, recent work and where time went this week.
Attention list: Long-running timers, days under target, projects near their budget threshold and timesheets to approve. Worked out when you open the dashboard; nothing is sent by email.

Security and data handling

What WorkLog does not do

So you can decide quickly whether it fits.

No activity monitoring, screenshots or keystroke tracking. It records declared work time.
No invoicing or payments. It prepares the summary; you send the invoice.
No native desktop or mobile apps. It runs in the browser, including on phones.
No integrations with other tools.
No email reminders or notifications.
No single sign-on (SSO or SAML).

Start with today’s hours.
