A morning,
in fast-forward.

Open HourSlip and yesterday's work is already drafted. Accept it, start today's timer, glance at any view, then turn the week into an invoice — without typing a single entry.

Pomodoro · built in

A Pomodoro
that respects
your day.

Not a bolt-on, not a separate log. The 25-minute timer writes to the same timesheet as your stopwatch — one source of truth, no reconciliation.

  • 25 / 5 / 15 cycles — yours
    Focus / Short / Long break. Configurable per user.
  • Auto-start or pause
    Glide between phases, or wait for the click.
  • Browser notifications
    Works in the background — even when the tab is hidden.
  • Streak counter, saffron — not green
    A quieter brag than every other Pomodoro app.

Your invoice can write
itself by Friday.

Every entry already knows its client, project, ₹/hour, billable flag, and description. Pulling a timesheet into an invoice is one click — not an export, not a CSV.

Rates lock at issue

Raise your rate next quarter — last quarter's invoice still bills at the old number. No retroactive math, no client awkwardness.

Timesheet PDF layout

Need to give your client an audit trail? One of the six PDF layouts prints the entry-by-entry breakdown — with date, description, and ₹/hour.

Edit history kept

Every change to a logged entry is audited — who changed what, when, and the old value. Defensible against a section-44ADA review.

The other half of the loop lives on its own page:GST invoicing, six layouts & UPI
Built for ₹/hour

A tracker that
knows what TDS is.

Toggl, Clockify, and Harvest were built for studios in Brooklyn billing in dollars. HourSlip was built for a developer in Pune billing two clients in rupees and one in GBP — under section 44ADA, with 10% TDS deducted at source.

If you're still on something else

An honest
side-by-side.

Toggl, Clockify and Harvest are genuinely good — most freelancers we talk to already run one happily. The honest difference isn't that they track time badly; it's that none of them put a focus timer and an India-native GST invoice in one tool, so you stop being the integration layer between Toggl, Refrens and Excel.

In a sentence
Timer + Pomodoro + GST invoice in one, built around ₹/hour, TDS and FY April–March.
Best-in-class timer UX and a genuinely generous free tier — unlimited projects, up to 5 users. But billable rates are paid-only (free tracks time, not money), and invoicing is still beta: basic PDF, no tax config, Toggl branding on lower plans. Nothing India-specific.
The most permissive free plan in the category — unlimited users, idle detection, basic billable rates. Invoicing is a paid add-on (Standard) with generic tax fields only: no CGST/SGST/IGST split, no UPI, no single-invoice multi-currency, plus India card-renewal friction.
Mature, polished, time + invoicing + expenses in one — deservedly loved by US agencies. But priced and built US-first: no GST, no UPI, no TDS, no FY April–March. You bill in dollars and reconcile Indian tax by hand.
Free and endlessly flexible. But no idle detection, no crash recovery, no audit log — and you are the GST engine. One closed tab and an unsaved row is gone; one fat-finger and the FY totals quietly drift.

Questions, answered

The fine print, up front.

The things freelancers email us before signing up — answered plainly.

  • Yes. The Free plan tracks unlimited time entries, unlimited clients and unlimited projects, forever — no 14-day clock, no "trial expired" wall. Pro adds the Activity Inbox, idle detection, heatmap and weekly approvals, but the timer itself is never paywalled.
  • Google Calendar, Slack, GitHub and Linear. Each morning it drafts time entries from what you actually did — commits, threads, moved issues, calendar events — and you accept, edit or dismiss each with a keypress. It never logs anything without your confirmation.
  • A Toggl / Clockify CSV importer is on our roadmap. For now, your new entries in HourSlip start fresh — but the timer is free and unlimited, so your FY totals build from day one. Historical data import is coming.
  • It's the same data, not two tools stitched together. A tracked hour already knows its client, ₹/hour, billable flag and description, so pulling a week into a GST invoice is one click — no CSV export, no re-keying, no reconciliation on Friday evening.
  • Every total runs on the Indian financial year (1 Apr–31 Mar), shows ₹/hour rather than a converted dollar figure, and is TDS-aware (194J / 194C) so your net-of-TDS numbers reconcile against 26AS at filing.
  • Always. Export every time entry, client and invoice to CSV or PDF at any time, on any plan. No lock-in, no "contact sales to export" — it's your ledger.
