TIMESHEETS

The timesheet writes itself. So does the invoice.

Built into the app. Tap in and tap out with GPS. Photos are date and time stamped. At the end of the week the completed timesheet lands with you and the employer – logo’d and ready to approve. No more paper timesheets, no more chasing.

HOW IT WORKS

Step by step

  • Tap in and tap out for each day – GPS time and date stamped
  • Take photos of your work as you go – each one date and time stamped
  • At the end of the week, tap Generate Timesheet – the logo’d timesheet builds itself and sends to the employer
  • The employer approves, queries or rejects – once approved, it is electronically signed and copies go to both sides
  • Self-employed? Your invoice is auto-generated and sent with the timesheet
GPS at tap in and tap out only, never in between.

IS YOUR RATE RIGHT?
