You Cannot Optimize What You Cannot See
Your team's work is scattered across four or five tools that don't talk to each other — and the gaps between them are where hours leak and projects slip.

Manual timesheets are often inaccurate
Manual timesheets often lead to inaccurate reporting, limited visibility, and operational inefficiencies.
Managers rely on assumptions instead of measurable data
Managers often rely on assumptions instead of real-time, measurable workforce data, making it challenging to accurately evaluate productivity, monitor team performance, identify operational inefficiencies, and maintain clear visibility into project progress across distributed and remote teams.
Idle time creates hidden productivity leakage
Idle time reduces productivity and impacts overall operational efficiency.
Remote and hybrid teams are difficult to monitor
Distributed teams often create visibility gaps in productivity, activity, and operational oversight.
Client billing often lacks evidence-backed validation
Client billing often lacks accurate, evidence-backed work validation and transparency.
The tools aren't the problem. The gaps between them are.
Scope drifts because the spec doesn't talk to the tickets. People burn out because workload doesn't talk to wellness. Estimates inflate because last quarter's actuals don't talk to this quarter's plan. Field work gets disputed because GPS doesn't talk to time. TruTimer puts every one of those signals on the same system — so nothing falls through the cracks.
Meet TruTimer
TruTimer automatically tracks active work, detects idle time, maps hours to projects, and turns it all into accurate reports your managers and clients can trust — no manual timesheets required.
Automatic Time Tracking
Capture work hours and activity automatically in real time — no manual timesheets, no missed minutes.
See How Work Happens
See keyboard, app, and focus activity in context — so productivity is judged on data, not guesswork.
Intelligent Idle Detection
Automatically separate active work from idle time to surface productivity leakage before it adds up.
Evidence-Backed Reporting
Turn tracked activity into accurate timesheets and reports your managers and clients can trust.
What Only TruTimer Does
Plenty of tools track time. TruTimer is the only one that connects the signals around it — so the hour you bill is backed by the work that produced it.
One connected system
Time, tasks, capacity, field GPS and a health score share the same data. A field crew's check-in and a developer's tracked hour update the same dashboard your finance team bills from.
Proof, not surveillance
Two-path approval, optional admin-controlled screenshots, activity as context — never a keystroke log or a punitive score. Visibility your team doesn't resent.
A plan you can actually ship
Draft a spec, turn it into an editable plan grid (AI-assisted or by hand, plus Excel import), and apply it in one commit. No spec-in-a-doc, tickets-somewhere-else drift.
Built for your industry
Pick Software, Agency, Construction, Healthcare, Legal or Manufacturing and start with the right task types, statuses and workflow — not generic “sprint/bug” jargon.

A Single Score for “Are We Actually OK?”
Project Pulse turns the data your team already produces into a 0–100 health score — on-time delivery, velocity, blocked work, estimate accuracy, unassigned and overdue work, and schedule adherence. It's math, not a vibe, so risk surfaces while you can still act on it.
“Why did it move?” — ask, and get a plain-language answer backed by your own data.

AI That Earns Its Keep (and stays optional)
Turn a brief into a spec in minutes
Paste your project brief; TruTimer drafts a structured FRD you edit and approve.
Go from spec to a plan you can ship
Auto-suggest a task plan in an editable grid — keep what fits, change the rest, apply in one commit.
Know why a project slipped
Ask why a Pulse metric moved and get a plain-language answer backed by your own data.
AI is a button, never a gate. Every TruTimer workflow has a full manual path.
Your Bench Has Hidden Capacity. Find It. Borrow It.
People sit idle on one team while another drowns — and nobody can see it. The Resource Pool shows who is actually free across your whole org, who frees up next, and what they can do — so a spare afternoon in one team becomes shipped work in another.
-
Real-idle detection. Spots people who look busy but aren't — allocated with no tickets, blocked, or finished early — and shows the reason, not just a badge.
-
Org-wide visibility. Every lead sees spare capacity across teams — status, skills, and free-from date. No more hidden benches.
-
Freeing-up forecast. Know who frees up, and when — so the next project starts with people, not a scramble.
-
Skill-matched borrowing. Request the right free person; their lead approves; they return automatically on the date you set.
Same privacy posture as the rest of TruTimer: the pool shares status, skills, and free-date only — never screenshots, costs, or leave reasons.

Built for Trust, Not Surveillance
Visibility shouldn’t cost you your team’s trust. In TruTimer, activity is informational context for managers — never a punitive score — and every control sits in your hands.
Screenshots off by default
Admins decide if and when screenshots are captured. Cadence is randomized within your range — never a fixed, predictable schedule.
Activity is context, not a verdict
The activity score never gates pay or work. Designers, researchers, and PMs often show “low” — and that’s perfectly normal.
Consent-first & transparent
Employees always know when tracking is active. Policies are configurable per organization, with a clear, documented setup.
You control everything
Cadence, retention, what’s captured, and what’s published — every knob is in your team’s hands, role-scoped and auditable.
No keystroke logging — and you set the rest
TruTimer never records what your team types. Activity is a context signal — not a keylogger and not a transcript of anyone’s work.
Everything else is a policy you own. Try the panel — and notice the one switch we don’t even offer.
