We’re on a mission to rid the world of the pain and time lost entering time into timesheet systems or putting together invoices. iworkie is the simplest and easiest way to monitor tasks and projects over time. Perfect for freelancers and on-the-go employees. Inaccurate time recording is an inherent problem for freelance workers and employees all over the world. We looked at the issues from the point of view of the employee, and not the employer. After all, your boss is simply asking you to enter what you have done without supplying the tools to effectively monitor your work as you go. This leaves employees diving in to calendars and their long term memory while filling in the blanks with guess work to cobble together some record of what they’ve done. The results are wildly inaccurate timesheets, inaccurate billing to clients losing companies millions, and terrible references of historical projects for scoping future work. Many typical time tracking apps ask you to start and stop timers for tasks you are about to do. iworkie reverses that focus and taps into what you have just done, with a quick and simple method of adding time while the details are fresh in your memory. iworkie is perfect for anyone that has to track their time against tasks and projects and submit their hours into timesheets for their employer. iworkie also works perfectly for the freelancers and small business owners to effectively track time spent on client projects. Using iworkie results in a more accurate record of billable time and can even total up the cost of a project over time by applying hourly rates to your projects.
