Accurate time tracking starts with zero friction. Hourglass connects your planner to your time log — so engineers spend seconds logging, not minutes filling out forms.
Hourglass connects planning to logging — so time entry is a confirmation, not a creation.
01
Engineers are assigned to projects on specific days with planned hours — visible to everyone on the team.
02
When engineers open the weekly view, their planned work is already there. Project, hours and context are pre-filled.
03
Engineers confirm the entry, adjust hours if needed, and add notes. Data flows directly into every report — no import, no delay.
Engineers forget to log time at end of day
Hourglass puts scheduled assignments on the right day in the weekly view — engineers can log directly against them in one click, at any point during the day.
Blank time entry forms slow everyone down
Because Hourglass is connected to the planner, the project, hours and notes are pre-filled. Engineers confirm, not fill in.
Time entries are inconsistent or vague
Structured entries against real projects with notes fields and a PM impersonation mode means data quality is baked in, not enforced retrospectively.
PM has to chase the team every week
With a live timer available from any page and scheduled blocks visible in the calendar, engineers have no excuse and PMs have no need to chase.
A clean weekly layout showing every logged entry alongside scheduled work blocks. Navigate back or forward with keyboard-friendly controls.
Start a timer from the header on any page in the app. Stop it and the entry is pre-filled and ready to save — no context switch required.
Scheduled assignments surface in the time tracking view. Engineers click to log, adjust hours if needed, and move on.
Log time against future scheduled work — useful for engineers who prefer to plan and log in advance rather than retrospectively.
Project managers can log or correct time entries on behalf of engineers — essential for timesheet approvals and project closeout.
Resize time entries by dragging their edges in the weekly calendar. Adjust billable hours without reopening a form.
