ReclaimTime
ReclaimTime lets you text a single line — "Bill Acme 1.5h strategy call" — and your work is captured, structured, and ready for billing. No app. No timers. No workflow change. Just a text.
Works with your billing stack. Export-first. You stay in control.
"I'll log it later… and then I don't."
"It's not the big meetings — it's the small stuff that disappears."
"Opening a time tracking app feels like work."
"I know I'm underbilling. I just don't know by how much."
I've been a consultant. I lost billable hours—not because I didn't care, but because the tools never fit how work actually happens. So I texted myself.
That worked for capture. But I still had to process those texts into something billable. ReclaimTime automates that. You text, it does the rest.
If you’re missing even ~5 hours/week, here’s what that’s worth at your current rate.
Use the slider to estimate your capture gap. Assumes 160 billable hours/month.
ReclaimTime works with your existing billing system. Text your billable moments, and we'll structure them into a file that imports directly to QuickBooks, Harvest, Clio, or any system you use. It doesn't replace your stack — it makes sure your stack actually captures all the work you do.
vs. 30–60 seconds with apps
No app installation needed
SMS works on 1-bar or 3G where apps won't load
Just text and go
Here's how it works in practice:
Four ways ReclaimTime is faster and simpler
After a meeting, in an Uber, walking out of a client site — just text:
Bill Acme 1.2h roadmap review. No app. No login.
We identify the client, the time, and description into a clean entry, ready for review. You stay focused on work, not admin.
Open the easy UI to review your entries, make quick edits, and download on-demand — or have your CSV auto-delivered to your inbox every Monday morning.
Built for consulting firms with a mandate to capture every billable hour — without adding workflow.
Everything you need to capture and export billable moments
*Designed to cover typical usage (≈10 entries/day).
If you live and die by billable hours, but hate traditional time tracking, ReclaimTime is designed for you.
Your phone is always with you. Your billing app usually isn't. ReclaimTime closes that gap with the one interface you always have open: text.
Text a single line and move on — no app, no timers, no context switching.
Designed with SMS opt-out requirements in mind (STOP/HELP handling).
Your billing stack stays the system of record — ReclaimTime helps ensure it captures what you did.
Every entry can be edited or deleted in the web UI. You're always in control of what gets exported.
Export CSV anytime. Your data is yours—portable and readable by any billing system.
ReclaimTime exports clean CSV files that import into QuickBooks, FreshBooks, Harvest, or any system that accepts time entry data.
Planned for Q2 2026. It'll work very similar (e.g., "Expense ClientName $45 parking"). Then it'll export. That's still cooking.
NO. We do not share your data with anyone. Ever.
Yes, if you value your time. At $150/hour, you'll pay for a whole year's worth of billable time in just 2.4 hours captured.
