Automated time tracking for freelancers

Here’s what you get by automating freelance time tracking with Memtime

Work less

An average freelancer spends 0.5 days every week on manual time tracking. That’s just setting timers, coming up with descriptions, and adding hours to timesheets – not to mention the extra time it takes to regain focus. Memtime minimizes non-billable admin work for freelancers, saving you at least 2 hours every month. Don’t let time tracking turn into a part-time unpaid job.

Get paid more

At least 10% of your billable time as a freelancer is lost on small tasks that don’t get tracked. By switching to fully automated time tracking, you eliminate the risk of ever losing a minute of billable time. On average, freelancers increase their billable hours by 20% with Memtime. That’s 20% more revenue every month, recovered effortlessly.

Upsell wisely

Do you know which of your services and clients are actually profitable if you track time poorly or not at all? With automated time tracking, you can make sense of flat fees and retainers by comparing your estimated vs actual hours on projects, tasks, and subtasks. By knowing your most profitable services and clients, you can upsell and cross-sell wisely.
