Keito for Trello

Turn Trello delivery into billable records without leaving your workflow

The native Keito Power-Up brings timers and manual time entry into Trello cards. Your team selects an accessible Keito project and task, records time and automatically keeps the card link with the entry. See recent entries on the card or authorised totals in a board report. Time and billing records stay in Keito.

Start and stop timers or log completed time from Trello cards

Separate billable implementation from non-billable planning and internal work

Keep time totals private from board members who are not authorised in Keito

Workflow fit

Time capture method

Keito keeps trello time tracking connected to client, project, billable status, approval, and invoice context before the work reaches finance.

What Keito adds to trello time tracking

Developer-friendly time context

Keito is designed for technical teams that need billing records to reflect real delivery work without pushing every developer into finance tooling. The Keito CLI, GitHub Action, and Agent Skill log time from the terminal, CI jobs, pull requests, and AI coding sessions directly.

  • GitHub Action logs time from issues and PRs
  • CLI tracking for terminal and CI sessions
  • Repository and issue references on invoices

Review layer for client work

Managers can separate billable implementation, non-billable discovery, support, and internal work before reports leave the team.

  • Approval workflow
  • Billable status by task
  • Client-ready exports

Billing and project reporting in one flow

Use tracked engineering work for invoice backup, project profitability, and retainer reviews without stitching together several spreadsheets.

  • Budget and margin context
  • Expense support
  • Flat team pricing
04

Compare the workflow

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

AreaKeitoTypical setup

Time capture method

Timers and manual time entry inside Trello cards, with the card link saved automatically.

Trello's built-in time features are not designed for client billing approval workflows.

Billing review

Approval step separates billable delivery from non-billable planning before invoicing.

Without a dedicated billing layer, teams rebuild billing records from Trello activity logs manually.

Client reporting

Export client-ready summaries grouped by project and deliverable — not raw card movement data.

Trello reports show card activity, not billable time by client engagement.

Frequently asked questions

How do I track billable time for Trello projects?

Use the Keito Power-Up on a Trello card. Connect your Keito account, select a project and task, and start a timer or enter completed time. Keito automatically saves the card link with the time entry.

Does Keito integrate with Trello?

Yes. The deployed Keito Power-Up supports time tracking directly from Trello cards, private card totals and a board report. Install from the public Trello Power-Up directory on Solo, Pro, or Business, including active trials. Trello web and the macOS desktop app are supported.

Can I track billable hours per Trello board?

Yes. Keito records the Trello card and board references with each entry. The board report shows viewer-authorised time totals across up to 200 visible cards.

Why do teams need a separate time tracker alongside Trello?

Trello is a task management and workflow visualisation tool. It does not have a billing approval workflow, client-facing time summaries, or flat-rate pricing for the finance and management team members who need to review and approve billable work. A dedicated billing layer fills this gap.

What should teams compare before using trello time tracking for billing?

Before using trello 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.
