How this screen works

Where the numbers come from

  • Hours come off your own time entries, grouped by client and compared to what that client's retainer actually bought.
  • An invoice flips to late on its own the day after the due date. Nobody has to notice.
  • Overage is priced at that client's rate, so unbilled work shows up as a dollar figure instead of a vague feeling.

What it will not do

  • It is not bookkeeping and it is not tax prep. It does not categorize expenses, track deductions, or file anything.
  • What it does for the part you dread: hands your accountant a clean export instead of a shoebox, so you are buying an hour of their time rather than a weekend of yours.
  • It does not chase payment on its own unless you turn that on, and you would want to read every reminder before it went out.
