Hourtick for contractors
Time tracking for contractors and independent professionals
Contract work often means strict weekly timesheets approved by the client. Hourtick produces clean weekly timesheets with notes, locks them once submitted, and exports to CSV for the client's system.
Week grid
Type durations straight into the week view; autosaves.
Submitted = locked
Once submitted, entries can't change unless the week is reopened.
CSV export
Date, project, task type, notes, hours — ready for any client system.
The problem
- Clients requiring signed-off weekly timesheets
- Juggling several contracts
- Timesheets edited after approval
How contractors set up Hourtick
- One project per contract with the agreed rate.
- Track daily; fill gaps directly in the week grid.
- Submit the week — it locks.
- Export the week to CSV for the client.
In practice
A contract developer on two engagements submits both weekly timesheets from Hourtick in under five minutes on Fridays.
