Take Control of Your Billable Hours with TimeKeeper Pro

TimeKeeper Pro is a floating desktop time tracker and billing app for Windows. For example, whether you work inside Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, VS Code, or manage client tasks in a browser, it stays pinned right over your workspace. As a result, your project time, running costs, and billing sessions stay visible without cluttering your screen.

To begin, you can start with the Free Edition for daily time tracking. However, when you need more, step up to TimeKeeper Pro for a complete commercial toolkit that helps stop unbilled scope creep.

Why Upgrade to TimeKeeper Pro?

TimeKeeper Pro adds the tools freelancers need to protect their income. Because every minute counts, here is what you get when you upgrade.

  • Revenue Safeguards: Continuous budget cap monitoring converts your project caps into continuous time ratios. Get 80% and 100% capacity alerts with on-screen modal popups and automatic cost text color shifts before you run into non-billable scope creep.
  • Seamless Workflow Controls: In addition, control your session system-wide with global hotkeys (Ctrl + Alt + S / Ctrl + Alt + R) without taking your hands off the keyboard or switching out of your design software.
  • Automated Client Rules: Also, save unlimited client retainer presets, enforce minimum charge blocks (e.g. 5, 10, or 15 minutes) for minor edit requests, and pause tracking automatically when you step away from your desk.
  • 1-Click Spreadsheet Integration: Finally, export session history straight to timekeeper-log.csv on your Desktop—pre-formatted for immediate linking to Excel reporting workbooks and client invoices.
