What it does
RescueTime combines focus and productivity tracking with Timesheets for client, project, and task time. The official site describes automatic app and website activity tracking, billable rates, client reports, team calendars, and productivity reports.
RescueTime combines Focus, which tracks app and website activity, with Timesheets, which organizes time by client, project, and task for reports and billing. Pricing lists a free Lite plan and paid subscriptions. Solo+ with Timesheets starts at $12/month annually ($15 monthly); Team+ begins at $16/user/month annually ($18 monthly). No activity tracking or invoice workflow was tested.
Strengths
- Automatically tracks activity and offers a separate Timesheets product for project time.
- Paid Timesheets plans include billable rates, client reports, shared projects, and team calendars.
- A free Lite plan is listed alongside subscriptions.
Watch out for
- Timesheets are included in paid Solo+ and Team+ packages rather than Focus-only plans.
- The combined focus and timesheet feature set may exceed a basic timesheet need.
Best for
- Freelancers needing automatic project and client reports
- Teams wanting project timesheets alongside productivity insights
