01

Built around the work before the invoice

When time tracking and invoicing live apart, every billing cycle becomes an export, cleanup, and explanation exercise.

Capture the work while it is fresh

Record billable time by client, project, task, and person so the billing source of truth is created during delivery, not reconstructed at month end.

Review before anything reaches the client

Approve entries, expenses, and budget movement in one place so managers can catch missing context before finance creates the invoice.

Turn approved time into billing evidence

Use the same tracked data for invoices, client summaries, margin reviews, and internal capacity conversations.

02

Invoice preparation

Move from raw timesheets to client-ready invoices faster

The invoicing problem is usually not sending the invoice. It is deciding which entries are billable, which notes are client-safe, and whether the project has drifted outside budget. Keito gives delivery and finance the same reviewed data so the invoice can be prepared from a trusted source.

What Keito adds to time tracking and invoicing

Billing-ready time records

Keito keeps time, expenses, approvals, and client context together so the invoice is backed by the same record your team used to deliver the work.

  • Client and project tagging
  • Billable and non-billable separation
  • Approval status before invoice review

Flat pricing for growing teams

Invite the people who capture, review, and explain client work without turning each new contractor or reviewer into another per-seat charge.

  • Solo from $19/month
  • Flat-rate team plans from $49/month
  • Room for finance and delivery reviewers

Project visibility before the invoice

Spot budget drift, missed entries, and low-margin work before the month closes and the client conversation becomes harder.

  • Project budget views
  • Team utilization context
  • Exportable client summaries

Compare the workflow

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

Frequently asked questions

Does Keito replace separate time tracking and invoice spreadsheets?

For many teams, yes. Keito keeps tracked work, approvals, expenses, and billing summaries together so spreadsheets are not the main billing system.

Can I review time before creating an invoice?

Yes. Keito is built around reviewing entries by client and project before they are used for billing or reporting.

Who should use time tracking and invoicing software?

Agencies, consultants, software teams, and professional services firms that bill clients for delivery work get the most value from a shared time and billing workflow.
