Time Tracking for Consultants Who Bill by the Hour

Swiftime is AI-powered time tracking built for independent and boutique consultants who need to capture every billable engagement hour without interrupting their work. Instead of filling in timesheets at the end of the week, consultants describe what they did in plain language — "discovery interviews for Meridian, 90 minutes" — and Swiftime turns it into a structured, billable entry with the client, engagement, and duration already filled in.

Why consultants under-bill and lose hours

For most consultants, lost revenue isn't a pricing problem — it's a capture problem. When you reconstruct a week of work from memory, short but real tasks slip through: a client phone call, a quick deliverable revision, a follow-up email, or research between meetings. Each of those is billable, yet they get rounded down or dropped entirely, which quietly lowers both your invoiced hours and your reported utilization. Because consulting work shifts rapidly between clients and engagements, the detail needed to bill accurately fades within hours. Contemporaneous time entry — logging work as it happens — is the most reliable way to recover that time, but conventional timers and spreadsheets are too slow to use mid-engagement. Swiftime removes the friction so there's no reason to defer it.

How Swiftime captures engagement time

With Swiftime, you log time the way you'd describe it to a colleague. Type or speak a short note — "2h strategy workshop with Acme Corp on go-to-market" — and the AI extracts the client, the engagement, the duration, and a clean description automatically. There are no dropdowns to navigate or timers to remember to start and stop. Entries can be logged from any device, whether you're on a client site, running a workshop, analyzing data, or traveling between meetings, so accurate billing fits the way consultants actually work. Capturing an entry takes a single sentence, which means you can record an hour of advisory work the moment it ends rather than trying to remember it on Friday afternoon when the week has already blurred together.

Organize time by client and engagement for utilization and billing

Every entry is organized by client and project, so you can see exactly where your hours are going, measure utilization across engagements, and produce accurate, defensible invoices. Swiftime's dashboard breaks down time across clients and engagements, and its AI-generated daily summaries give you an end-of-day recap that's ready for billing review. That visibility helps you spot which engagements are running over scope, which clients consume the most unbilled time, and where your billable utilization is strongest. For boutique firms, team members can be invited with access to specific clients and projects, keeping each consultant's time both private and properly attributed to the right engagement.

How does Swiftime help consultants track billable time?

Swiftime lets consultants log time in plain language — typed or spoken — and uses AI to turn it into a structured billable entry with the client, engagement, duration, and description filled in.
