Time tracking

AI time tracking reconstructs work from apps, websites, files, calendars, and summaries so people can understand where time goes without running manual timers all day.

Overview

AI time tracking reconstructs work from apps, websites, files, calendars, and summaries so people can understand where time goes without running manual timers all day.

What it is, how it works

  • Automatic trackers reconstruct work from apps, websites, files, calendars, and summaries.
  • The value is less manual recall, better timesheets, and clearer work patterns.
  • AI helps turn raw activity into readable categories and useful coaching.

When not to use it

  • Don't use it for surveillance. That destroys trust quickly.
  • Avoid rollout before privacy controls, access rules, and retention are clear.
  • Manual timers may be enough for simple freelance billing.

How to get started

  • Try DoneThat if you want automated summaries, time tracking, and coaching from real work history.
  • Compare with established automatic trackers like RescueTime or Timely if billing workflows are the main need.
  • Start with personal review before team reporting.
