Bill clients for placed-contractor hours you can actually stand behind.
Keito captures contractor hours against the right client and assignment, reviews them before invoicing, and produces billing summaries that match each placement and bill rate.
staffing agency time tracking needs more than a timer. The billing record has to keep client, project, approval, and invoice context together before the work reaches finance.
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.

Placement billing accuracy
Every placement carries a bill rate, a pay rate, and zero room for error
Staffing agencies live on the margin between what they pay a placed contractor and what they bill the client, and that margin is only as reliable as the hours behind it. When contractor hours arrive as loose timesheets or are re-keyed from email, mistakes flow in both directions: clients get billed for hours that were never worked, or the agency under-bills and quietly loses margin. Keito gives staffing agencies a structured way to capture and review placement hours. Each placed contractor logs hours against the right client and assignment, the agency reviews and approves those hours before they are invoiced, and Keito produces billing summaries that map cleanly to each placement and its agreed bill rate. Because the same reviewed records anchor both the client invoice and the internal margin view, agencies can invoice clients confidently, reconcile contractor pay against billed hours, and see which placements and clients are actually profitable — without rebuilding the numbers from scattered timesheets every week.

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
Reviewed placement hours for billing
Keito keeps staffing agency time tracking tied to clients, projects, billable status, approvals, and billing summaries in one workspace.
Typical setups capture time in one tool and rebuild the billing explanation later from exports, comments, or spreadsheet cleanup.
Review before invoicing
Managers review entries before they become invoice evidence, so missing context is fixed internally rather than during a client dispute.
Raw timer exports usually reach finance before delivery leads have confirmed whether the work is billable, complete, or client-ready.
Predictable team pricing
Flat-rate plans let delivery staff, reviewers, contractors, and finance users participate without per-seat pricing friction.
Per-seat time trackers make teams choose between clean billing participation and controlling tool spend.
What is the best way to manage staffing agency time tracking?
The best way to manage staffing agency time tracking is to capture work at source, attach it to the right client and project, review it before invoicing, and use the reviewed record as billing evidence. Keito is built around that workflow so time, approvals, and invoice context stay connected.
Can Keito help with staffing agency time tracking?
Yes. Keito helps with staffing agency time tracking by tracking work by client, project, task, person, billable status, and review state, then turning approved records into client-ready summaries. That makes the data useful for billing, profitability, and client reporting rather than just attendance.
How is Keito different from a generic timer for staffing agency time tracking?
Keito is different because it treats time as billing evidence, not just duration. A generic timer records how long something took; Keito records who did the work, where it belongs, whether it was reviewed, and how it should appear in client billing context.
Who should review staffing agency time tracking before invoicing?
A project lead or delivery manager should review staffing agency time tracking before invoicing because they can confirm whether the work is billable, complete, and explained in client language. Keito gives reviewers a shared workspace for checking team entries before the billing record leaves the delivery team.
What should a client-ready staffing agency time tracking report include?
A client-ready staffing agency time tracking report should include the client, project, task, contributor, billable status, approval state, and a concise explanation of the work completed. Keito keeps those details connected so reports can answer client questions without exposing internal delivery noise.
