01

Built around the work before the invoice

Construction billing is only accurate when site hours, subcontractor work, and project budgets move together.

Capture delivery work by client and role

Record time by client, project, and team member role so billing reports reflect actual team composition without needing a separate tracking system per person.

Review team-level billing before it leaves the project

Give project leads a combined view of who worked on what, what is billable, and whether the team effort matches the client story before invoice prep starts.

Report team delivery in client billing language

Produce summaries that explain team effort by deliverable, milestone, or service area so clients understand what they are paying for.

02

Job cost billing

Give every construction job a billing record the client can trust

Construction companies lose billing accuracy when site supervisors log hours in one place, subcontractors submit timesheets separately, and project managers rebuild the invoice from multiple sources at month end. Keito creates a single job cost record — every trade, every subcontractor, and every site visit has a client, project, and billing status before the progress claim goes out.

Track hours for direct labour, subcontractors, and supervision in one workspace

Review job entries by trade and phase before billing the client

Use reviewed job cost data for both client progress claims and internal margin conversations

Workflow fit

What Keito adds to time tracking for construction

Team billing without per-seat penalties

Keito flat pricing means project leads can add contractors, specialists, and reviewers without facing a billing escalation each time the delivery team changes composition.

  • Flat-rate team plans from $49/month
  • Mix of full-time and contract contributors
  • Finance and project lead reviewers included

Delivery context the whole team fills in

Keito is designed for teams who move fast. It captures the minimum needed for billing accuracy: client, project, task, and billable status, without turning every entry into a form.

  • Quick entry with client and project tags
  • Billable or non-billable classification per entry
  • Manager review before entries become billing evidence

One billing view across the full team

Project leads can see all team contributions to a client engagement, not just their own entries, so the billing review is a single step rather than an aggregation exercise.

  • Project and team utilization view
  • Combined billing summary by client
  • Exportable team report for invoice backup

Compare the workflow

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

Area Keito Typical setup

Job cost tracking

Hours, expenses, and subcontractor work stay together per job.

Separate timesheets and spreadsheets mean project managers rebuild the record at billing time.

Subcontractor billing

Add subcontractors and trade crews without per-seat charges that grow with each trade engagement.

Per-seat pricing makes it expensive to include all subcontractors in the billing workflow.

Progress billing

Export client-ready summaries grouped by trade, phase, and milestone.

Generic time trackers produce raw hour totals that need manual reformatting for construction billing.

Frequently asked questions

What is construction time tracking software?

Construction time tracking software records job site hours by worker, trade, and project phase, supports subcontractor timesheet review, manages project budgets, and produces billing evidence for client progress claims and invoices.

How do construction companies track billable hours?

The most effective approach is a single workspace where site supervisors and subcontractors log hours with job and phase context, project managers review and approve entries, and billing evidence is ready for the next progress claim without manual consolidation.

Why do construction firms need flat-rate billing tools?

Construction teams have changing compositions — direct labour, multiple subcontractors, and supervisors all need access to the job cost workflow. Flat pricing keeps all contributors in the billing loop without a per-seat cost spike on every new trade engagement.

Can I track subcontractor hours alongside direct labour in Keito?

Yes. Keito lets you add subcontractors, trade crews, and specialist contractors to the same project workspace as your direct labour. All hours are captured with the same client and job context, reviewed together, and included in the same billing summary.
