Hourtick for video editors
Time tracking for video editors and post-production
Edits balloon with every round of client feedback. Hourtick tracks editing, color, sound and revisions separately so you can show clients where the time went — and price the next job properly.

The problem
- Revision rounds nobody budgeted
- Long renders and idle time muddying timesheets
- Juggling several productions
How video editors set up Hourtick
- A project per production; task types for Edit, Color, Sound, Revisions.
- Start the timer from the menu bar; switch as you change tasks.
- Idle detection asks about time during long renders away from the desk.
