What is Timely?

Timely removes the single biggest source of operational drag in your business: unreliable, incomplete, and retrospective time data.

Instead of asking teams to track time, Timely captures it automatically from the tools they already use and organizes it into accurate, decision-ready insight, so you can make business decisions based on real time-data.

Why Use Timely and Jira?

Jira tells you what is happening. Timely tells you what it costs. Together, they replace estimated effort and end-of-month reconstruction with a live, trustworthy view of delivery. You see where time is going as work unfolds, catch risk before it compounds, and make decisions that keep teams focused and margins intact.

Sync work effortlessly

Connect Jira once and your delivery structure appears automatically. Projects, issues and teams sync into Timely without configuration or duplication. Developers stay in Jira, Timely stays out of the way, and leaders finally get consistent time data without asking anyone to do more work.

Know where momentum comes from

Autosheet captures the work that happens between standups and commits, then lets teams log it back to Jira in a single click. You can see who is unblocking progress, where effort concentrates, and how workload truly feels across the team. Visibility improves without surveillance, and accountability appears without friction.

Align time with real progress

When time attaches itself to Jira issues by default, reporting stops being theoretical. You see how long work actually takes, where flow slows down, and why estimates drift. That turns sprint reviews, burndowns and retros from opinion into evidence, and gives leaders confidence to act early.

Deliver predictably

With worklogs, timelines and issue data synced continuously, plans stay aligned with reality. You see the real cost of iteration, the gap between estimates and delivery, and the early warning signs that precede overruns. Better data means fewer surprises, tighter margins, and delivery you can rely on sprint after sprint.

How to sync Jira and Timely?

"Black box for all your daily efforts.
Timely does everything in the background - you don't need to perform complex setups or remember to turn the timer "on" every time you start the next task. You just do the job: use your productivity apps, attend online meetings, work with mail, etc."

How the Timely + Jira Sync Works

The Timely + Jira sync turns Jira activity into reliable cost data automatically. Teams keep working in Jira while Timely captures real effort in the background, with no duplication or manual cleanup. Leaders get a clear view of cost, progress and risk early enough to protect margins and keep delivery predictable.
