For businesses that bill hours, and any team that answers for them

# Hours worth billing, on the record.

Log time against projects and clients — a timer if you like, a number if you don't. Submit the week; a manager approves or returns it, and approved weeks are locked history. Billable hours carry their rate from the day they were logged and roll up into the numbers an invoice starts from.

- Rates copied at entry — history never rewrites
- Approve or return, never silently edit
- Rollups by project, client and person 

## From logged to billed, without a spreadsheet.

Every number the billing conversation needs is computed from entries people actually made.

### Entries that hold up

Date, hours, project, billable, note — thirty seconds, or a running timer. Each billable entry copies the person's rate at that moment, so changing a rate never rewrites a week you already stood behind.

### Weeks with a signature

Submit the week and it locks; a manager approves it or returns it with a reason. The approval trail is the audit trail — no quiet edits to hours anyone gets paid or billed on.

### Rollups that mean something

Totals by project, client or person for any range, billable and not, in hours and dollars. In the Invoice app, these are the lines an invoice starts from.



## Log, submit, approve.

- Log the hours Against a project and client when there is one; plain internal time when there isn't.
- Submit the week One click on Friday. A returned week comes back with the reason and resubmits in place.
- Bill from the report Billable totals by client, at the rates that were true when the work happened. 

## Hours are work records, not surveillance.

Time entries are visible to the person who logged them and the organization's managers — never outside the organization, never mined by us. Rates are compensation-adjacent, so they travel only to managers and the person themself. There is no screenshotting, no activity monitoring, no keystroke anything: the record is what people wrote down, which is the point.

**Is this the same app as Shifts?**

No — [Shifts](https://priv-life.com/apps/shifts) schedules an organization's shift coverage with a station timeclock; Time tracks a business's hours against projects and clients for billing and payroll conversations. Same account, different jobs.

**Can a manager change my approved hours?**

Not silently. An approved week has to be returned — with the action on the record — before anything on it can change. That protects both directions of the conversation.

**Where do the dollar amounts come from?**

Each billable entry carries an hourly rate, defaulted from the person's rate at the moment it was logged and overridable per entry. Reports multiply honestly and round to the cent — and an old week never changes when a rate does.

**Does it watch what people do?**

No. No screenshots, no activity tracking, no idle detection. People write down their hours; managers approve them. Trust plus a paper trail beats surveillance.

**Can it invoice?**

Yes — the [Invoice](https://priv-life.com/apps/invoice) app pulls unbilled approved time straight onto an invoice, at the rates each entry carried, and stamps the entries so nothing bills twice.
