Manual time tracking without screen surveillance.

A time tracker that respects you

Freelancers need to track time for billing. The options are: Toggl (good but big company, growing surveillance features), Harvest (expensive, enterprisey), or worst — apps that screenshot your screen every 10 minutes and call it "productivity." For solo freelancers and consultants, this is overkill and creepy. Hours is a calm, manual time tracker. Log entries with a start and end time, tag the project, jot what you did, export for invoicing. That's it.

What you see

The **dashboard** is the morning roll-up: today's total + billable, week's total + billable, week value computed from your hourly rates, a week-at-a-glance bar chart that highlights today, and a by-project breakdown so you know where the hours actually went. The **entries** page lists everything you've logged, grouped by day with a per-day total. Filterable by project + date range. Click any entry to edit start, end, project, notes, or billable status. The **projects** page lists every project with totals — hours logged, billable hours, computed value if a rate is set. Click into one for a **project detail** page with a date-range filter, ready for invoice prep ("show me everything for Acme between Oct 1 and Oct 31").

What it doesn't do

No screenshots. No keystroke counting. No "are you really working?" pings. No team workflows. No public sharing. No client-side tracking. No automatic categorization. Manual entry by design — you log what you did, when you did it, what mattered.

Built to keep working over years

Manual start/end inputs with live duration preview + +15/+30/+60/+90/+120-minute shortcuts so the form feels fast. Per-project hourly rate (any currency). Billable vs non-billable toggle so internal/admin entries don't pollute invoice totals. Per-entry notes. Mixed-currency totals on the dashboard. Date-range filter on every list. Archive a project without losing the history.
