Hourtick for remote teams

Time tracking for remote teams, without surveillance

Remote teams need visibility into where time goes, not screenshots of people's screens. Hourtick is explicit time tracking: people start timers, managers see reports, nobody is monitored.

No screenshots

Hourtick never records screens, apps or keystrokes.

Per-person time zones

Each entry belongs to the day it was worked for that person.

Approval queue

Managers approve weeks in one place; approved weeks lock.

The problem

  • Monitoring tools erode trust
  • Teammates across many time zones
  • Timesheets arriving late every week

How remote teams set up Hourtick

  1. Invite everyone with a link; each person sets their own time zone.
  2. Track from the browser or the Mac menu bar.
  3. Everyone submits their week; managers approve in one queue.
  4. Team reports show hours by project and person.

In practice

A distributed product studio spanning eight time zones replaces a monitoring tool with Hourtick and keeps weekly approvals.

Included on every plan

  • Mac menu bar timer
  • Timesheet approvals
  • Billable rates and budgets
  • Reports and CSV export
  • Invoiced locks
  • Offline sync

Frequently asked questions

Does Hourtick track activity or take screenshots?

No. Hourtick only records time that people track themselves.

How are time zones handled?

Each person has a time zone; new entries belong to the day in their zone, and existing entries keep their day.
