Hours is the quickest way to turn time worked into a number you can send. No spreadsheet, no clunky invoicing suite — just your clients, your hours, and the total owing. Add your clients and hours, set your rate, fold in GST or another tax, and share a clean summary. The amount updates as you type, so you always know where you stand. WHY HOURS • Hours by client — log time against as many clients as the week needs • Rate & tax — set an hourly rate and add GST or another adjustment • Instant total — see the amount owing update as you type • Shareable summary — export a tidy image to send straight on MADE FOR SMALL OPERATORS Freelancers, contractors, side-hustlers — anyone who bills by the hour and doesn't want accounting software to do it. Fast to log, faster to send. STAYS ON YOUR PHONE Your clients and hours live on your device. No account, no cloud, no sign-up.
