Built around the work before the invoice
The planned flow keeps delivery in Asana and makes Keito time capture available inside the task pane.
Open the Keito form in Asana
Use the native task entry point in supported Asana web and desktop clients, without installing a browser extension.
Choose once, then reuse the mapping
Select the Keito project and task the first time. The successful mapping is shared with teammates who have access.
Review and bill from Keito
The task name and source link stay on the Keito entry, where normal approvals, reports, budgets, and invoicing apply.

Project billing
Keep Asana for delivery and Keito for billing
Keito is building the task-side experience Asana teams lost when native Harvest tracking was removed. The first release will use Asana App Components, store time only in Keito, and keep the original task link attached to every entry. It will not write to Asana native time-tracking fields.
Start, stop, switch, or log a duration without leaving the Asana task
Remember the Keito project and task selection for other authorized teammates
Keep time in Keito for review, reporting, budgets, and invoices
Workflow fit
Billing layer
Keito keeps asana time tracking connected to client, project, billable status, approval, and invoice context before the work reaches finance.

What Keito adds to asana time tracking
Keito timer rules stay consistent
Starting from Asana will use the same running-timer and project-access rules as every Keito surface.
- Explicit switch when another timer runs
- Manual duration does not stop another timer
- Each person connects their own identity
Task context reaches billing
Keito stores the stable Asana task ID, name snapshot, workspace, and canonical link with each entry.
- History survives task renames
- Team and personal totals in the widget
- Detailed Keito report linked from Asana

Billing layer
Adds client billing context that Asana is not designed to provide.
Native Asana time tracking does not include invoicing or client billing summaries.
Approval workflow
Managers approve billable entries before invoice prep begins.
Asana does not have a billing review or approval step.
Team pricing
Flat plans let all delivery contributors participate without per-seat cost escalation.
Per-seat billing tools add cost as teams grow.

Frequently asked questions
Does Asana have built-in time tracking for billing?
Asana includes basic task time fields, but it is not designed for client billing workflows, invoice preparation, approvals, or project-level billing summaries.
Can I use the Keito Asana integration today?
Not yet. It is in development and will move through a controlled beta before general availability. Join the waitlist to hear when access opens.
How will Asana teams add billing-ready time tracking?
An administrator will add the Keito app to Asana projects. Each team member will connect their own Asana and Keito accounts so time is attributed to the correct person.
Will Keito update Asana native time tracking?
No, not in the first release. Keito will be the source of truth for time, approvals, reports, and invoices; the Asana component will show Keito totals and source links.
What should teams compare before using Asana time tracking for billing?
Before using Asana time tracking for billing, teams should compare whether activity can become reviewed client, project, task, and approval records before anything reaches an invoice. Keito provides that billing layer so integration activity can support client reporting without exposing internal delivery noise.
