What is automatic time tracking and why does it matter?
Automatic time tracking does exactly what it promises. It’s time tracking that requires no manual input, drastically reducing time spent on logging hours. No missed time entries. No guesswork. No end-of-day scramble to remember what was done. Just a complete, accurate timeline of your work available whenever you need it. Studies show that automatic time tracking can reduce time tracking admin by up to 75%, freeing up valuable hours for billable work and strategic tasks. For consultancies, agencies, SaaS businesses, and professional services firms, this is a game changer.

The inefficiency of manual time tracking
Knowledge work is messy and chaotic. A typical day can see us jumping between devices and tools constantly. We use our tools fluidly and this digital blur makes it practically impossible to accurately capture everything we work on using manual timers. Traditional time tracking methods require employees to manually start and stop timers or enter hours retrospectively. Manual time tracking is disruptive and intrusive, since remembering to manage timers and taking notes as we move between tasks requires us to split our attention between work and the clock. It’s not only time-consuming but also prone to errors, leading to inaccurate billing, lost revenue, and frustration among employees. The more time teams spend on tracking their hours, the less time they have for meaningful work.
Reducing admin workload with automation
By automating time tracking, businesses eliminate the burden of logging hours manually, significantly reducing the time spent on non-billable admin tasks. All you need to do is download a time tracking app to get started. With up to 75% of time tracking admin removed, employees can redirect their focus to high-value work, increasing overall productivity and job satisfaction while ensuring accurate time records.

The impact on billing and revenue capture
A significant portion of billable time is often lost due to inaccurate or incomplete manual time tracking. Automatic tracking ensures that every minute of work is recorded, reducing revenue leakage and making billing more precise. This leads to more transparent invoicing, fewer client disputes, and ultimately, stronger financial performance.
Strategies for transitioning to automatic time tracking
Successfully moving to automatic time tracking requires clear communication with employees about its benefits, seamless integration with existing workflows, and support throughout the adoption process. Communication about privacy are also paramount- unlike some time tracking tools, Timely offers user privacy by design. Our customer success team helps businesses implement automatic tracking smoothly, ensuring teams understand how to use the system effectively and experience immediate time-saving benefits.
