Project time tracking

Track the time without leaving the task.

Start a timer where the work happens, add an entry after the fact, and keep every hour connected to the right project. No separate tracker to reconcile at the end of the week.

Time with context

Know where the hours went—and what moved forward.

Because time lives beside projects and tasks, a total is more than a number. It carries the client, deliverable, note, and work behind it.

Start from the task

Begin tracking without switching to another tab or rebuilding the project structure.

Keep one timer honest

A single running timer across the workspace makes overlapping entries less likely.

Backfill when needed

Add manual entries for work you completed without starting the timer first.

See the week together

Review tracked time in the context of the projects and tasks that produced it.

A lighter timesheet

Track as you go. Correct it when you need to.

Cinch keeps time tracking useful without making it the center of the workday.

Choose the task

Start from the task you are already working in so the project and context come with the entry.

Run, pause, or stop

Control the active timer from the work and keep one clear running entry across the workspace.

Review the record

Add notes, backfill missed time, and use the project’s rounding rules when the hours are billable.

Useful for billable work, not employee surveillance

Cinch records the time you choose to track against the work you choose. It is designed to make project hours understandable, not to capture screenshots or measure keyboard activity.

  • Task-level context for every tracked entry
  • Manual corrections when real work does not match a perfect timer
  • Project rounding that can reflect the way client time is billed

The timer and the plan stay connected

Tracked time sits inside the same workspace as deadlines, files, project views, and client feedback, so the record does not become another isolated system.

  • Move from a project view directly into the timed task
  • Keep notes with the work instead of in a separate timesheet
  • Use one project structure for planning and time tracking

Common questions

A few useful details.

Can I add time without running a timer?

Yes. Manual entries let you backfill work or correct a record after the fact.

Can more than one timer run at once?

Cinch keeps one active timer across your workspace so the current entry stays clear.

Can time be associated with a task?

Yes. Timers and manual entries can stay connected to the task and project where the work happened.

Does Cinch support project rounding?

Yes. Rounding can be configured per project to better match the way project time is billed.
