Track delivery time for billing. Leave the surveillance behind.
Keito gives teams the time tracking and billing workflow they need for client work without the screenshot monitoring, activity scoring, and surveillance overhead that Time Doctor brings.
Time Doctor was built for employee monitoring. Keito is built for client billing. They are different workflows with different outcomes.
Keep the billing habit while switching tools
Migrate client and project structure to Keito so the tracking workflow is familiar from day one — the same fields, the same billing discipline, without the pricing model that drove the switch.
Review time before it becomes invoice evidence
Run the same approval step you relied on before, with the added assurance that the review covers project context, expenses, and billable status in one place.
Invoice from reviewed records at a predictable cost
Use the same billing data to produce client summaries and invoice backup without paying per seat each time the team or contractor roster changes.

Billing without monitoring
Client billing time tracking that does not treat the team like suspects
Time Doctor's value proposition is workforce monitoring: screenshots, activity logs, app and URL tracking. That creates friction with high-trust professional teams who track time for client billing, not attendance verification. Keito is designed for the billing use case: teams record client and project work, managers review entries for accuracy, and the result is invoice-ready evidence — without productivity scoring, screen capture, or surveillance infrastructure.
Track time by client and project for billing accuracy without monitoring productivity or activity patterns
Review and approve team entries before billing without screenshot-based justification
Produce client billing summaries from reviewed delivery records, not surveillance reports
Workflow fit
Primary purpose

The difference is not just recording time. It is whether the record can support billing, project decisions, and client conversations.

What is the difference between Time Doctor and Keito?
Time Doctor is employee monitoring software that includes time tracking as part of a surveillance stack. Keito is a billing-focused time tracker designed for professional services teams that need client and project time records for invoicing — without monitoring, screenshots, or activity analysis.
Can professional services teams switch from Time Doctor to Keito?
Yes. Teams that used Time Doctor for client billing can migrate to Keito and keep the same core tracking habit: record time by client and project, review entries before billing, and produce invoice evidence. Without the monitoring overhead.
