How this feature works
in 3 simple steps
1
Install and connect
Install ManicTime and connect your workspace in minutes, without complicated setup.
2
Automatic activity capture
ManicTime records apps, websites, documents, and activity timelines automatically in the background.
3
Review, assign, and report
Review captured work, assign time to projects, and generate reports or invoices with confidence.
Invoice
Easily generate invoices directly from your timesheet, allowing you to swiftly send professional bills to your customers.
One-Click Invoice from Timesheet
One-Click Invoice from Timesheet turns approved timesheet results into invoice drafts without re-entering line items manually. This reduces transfer errors and accelerates the billing cycle from activity capture to customer-ready output. Teams can move from time review to invoicing in a single operational flow, which is especially helpful at month-end. Faster conversion from tracked work to financial documents improves cash-flow predictability and reduces administrative overhead.
Invoice Client and Item Management
Invoice Client and Item Management provides structured handling of invoice recipients, line entries, and reusable business details during generation. Teams can maintain cleaner billing records and avoid repetitive setup tasks when issuing recurring invoices. This feature supports practical invoice administration directly within the reporting workflow rather than requiring disconnected tooling. Better structure at invoice creation time reduces downstream corrections and speeds approvals.
Invoice PDF and Language Output
Invoice PDF and Language Output lets teams generate deliverable-ready invoice documents and adjust visible labels for localization requirements. This is important when serving clients across regions that need specific terminology or language presentation. By controlling presentation at output time, teams keep internal tracking consistent while tailoring external documents appropriately. The capability strengthens professionalism and reduces rework for multi-language or internationally distributed customer bases.
Invoice Payment Status Tracking
Invoice Payment Status Tracking records payment progress against issued invoices so financial follow-up is tied directly to the originating work data. Teams can monitor which invoices are outstanding, partially paid, or fully settled without losing context about the underlying timesheet source. This improves billing operations and helps prioritize collections activity. Visibility into status transitions supports more disciplined revenue workflows and clearer operational reporting.

This software automatically tracks the time you spend on your computer. When you step away from your computer for a certain length of time (set by user), it will prompt you to tag that time. For example, if I'm getting coffee and have a 20 minute chat about the weekend, I tag it as personal. But if I have a chat about an upcoming or existing project, I tag it about that project. For the tasks you do on the computer, it can save screenshots every X seconds (again, set by user), so that you can have a reminder when you go to do your billing what each task was for.

There is a lot to love about Manic Time. It was easy to use and did way more than I was expecting from it. The reporting was informative. The editing was awesome. Tagging and managing the time tracked is robust, yet simple. It is great at taking the tracking out of time tracking. It just does 90% for you. The last 10% is tagging and validating. It really does an amazing job at showing how much time is wasted on mundane tasks or mindless browsing. I handed in my time to a project manager. He asked how I knew I worked 3.28 hours on a specific task. "Manic Time" was my answer.

I do contract work and manage multiple projects where I bounce between projects on an almost by the minute basis. Once tagging is setup I can easily tag all my activities as I do them and my time accumulates in each project bucket. At the end of the day my timesheet is a breeze. This is the best tool I have found so far for a work style that involves heavy duty multi-tasking. I don't know what I would do without ManicTime. Well designed and thought out product.

I like this application because with manic time we can verify who does their right job. And we also have better control because we can choose the best workers to increase production works very well and without errors.

Just renewed my licence for another year Just thought I'd let you know that this is one of the best pieces of software I've ever installed on my computer, free or paid for. I run my own business which principally relies on writing technical reports. ManicTime has made it so much easier to track my time over the various projects and therefore manage my fees and costs. (And your support has been excellent when I have had the odd problem).

Just wanted to let you know that I think your software has helped me capture $1000's of dollars in revenue that I just wasn't billing before, as I wasn't doing a very good job of tracking my time. With ManicTime I get it all, and if I were ever to be audited by a client, I could give them every detail. Thanks so much!
Judy
The interface is very intuitive and easy to use. The ability to tag and color-code my work allows me to see at a glance how my day has been going. I can organize and structure things as much or as little as I like. What a great product!
Joshua
ManicTime’s ease of use is unmatched, thanks to its intuitive interface and flexible granularity in time-tracking. The power to dive as deep as you need into data with comprehensive tagging and reporting systems is a significant upside. Its vast number of features like document, application, and activity trackers streamline the process of managing and analyzing time efficiently. Moreover, ManicTime’s advanced search capabilities, coupled with the functionality to annotate tagged time, make it a vital tool for enhancing productivity and recalling information during discussions.

I like that it tracks inactive time on the computer so that you can remember when you started working and when you stopped, and when you took breaks. Very easy to use, I don't have to remember to log in and the app does everything for me without me even doing anything except installing the program. It shows exactly what page and project you were working on and for how long and when.
Amanda
It provides with useful reports which track and monitor the computer usage of employees, as well as the time spent on each computer program or application. Also the presence of an automatic screenshot feature resulted in an increase in my employees’ productivity. It runs automatically on my computer, great.
