See where the team's time goes. Before billing review starts.
Keito gives engineering managers a team-level view of billable work, project allocation, and capacity so billing review is informed, not reconstructed.
Engineering managers need delivery context before billing — not a summary reconstructed from standups and calendar logs.
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.

Team billing visibility
Give engineering managers a billing view, not just a headcount view
Most engineering managers have visibility into who is on a project, but not into what fraction of that work is billable, whether entries are reviewed, or whether the team's sprint effort maps to the client invoice. Keito gives engineering managers a team-level billing view: who is on what, which work is billable, what needs review, and whether the project is tracking to budget — all before finance opens the billing cycle.
See the full team's billable work by client and project without asking individuals for updates
Identify unreviewed entries, missing project tags, and overhead that should not reach client invoices
Use team delivery data for billing reviews, capacity conversations, and sprint retrospectives
Workflow fit
Team delivery visibility
Keito keeps engineering manager time tracking connected to client, project, billable status, approval, and invoice context before the work reaches finance.

What Keito adds to engineering manager time tracking
Team-level billing view by project
Keito aggregates time across the whole engineering team by client and project so managers can see utilization, billing readiness, and delivery composition without chasing individual entries.
Cross-team project summaries
Billable vs non-billable breakdown by team member
Client-facing vs internal time separation
Sprint and delivery reporting without manual extraction
Time entries are already organized by project and team member. Engineering managers can pull delivery reports by sprint, milestone, or client without spreadsheet merging or export gymnastics.
Sprint-level delivery summaries
Team member contribution by project
Exportable client delivery evidence
Flat pricing for the whole engineering team
Keito flat pricing covers all team members — developers, contractors, and reviewers — without a per-seat escalation when the team grows, contracts rotate, or new client work starts.
Unlimited team members on core plan
Contractors and reviewers included
No cost increase when team composition changes

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
Team delivery visibility
Aggregate team view by project and client, updated in real time.
Simple timers show individual hours without manager-level aggregation.
Billing review
Managers can review and approve team entries before they reach billing.
Finance often rebuilds the picture from individual timesheet exports.
Capacity signals
Billable vs non-billable ratios visible during the sprint.
Utilization data is often available only after the fact.
What does an engineering manager need from time tracking?
Engineering managers need a team-level view of billable vs non-billable work, project allocation, sprint delivery evidence, and the ability to review entries before they reach billing — without requiring developers to duplicate effort in separate reporting tools.
Can Keito show team utilization by project for billing?
Yes. Keito organizes time by client, project, and team member so managers can see billable ratios, identify overhead, and confirm which sprint work is ready for billing review.
How does flat pricing help engineering team billing?
Flat pricing means adding contractors, rotating engineers, and reviewers to the billing workflow does not trigger a monthly cost increase. The team can scale without software cost surprises.
