The right features for Architects and engineers

Project time tracking

Record working hours per project – straight to the right construction project

You and your team know with every time entry exactly how much time is going into which construction project – whether in the office or on site.

  • Assign hours to a project as soon as work starts
  • Switch between projects with one tap
  • Use reporting for planning, billing and post-costing

Activity documentation

Activity documentation – traceable and transparent

You record every activity carried out right in the time entry – whether it is a site visit, planning or a discussion with the client.

  • State activities directly when recording hours
  • Entries stamped automatically with date and time
  • Use complete records for clients and for internal documentation

Call notes

Pull notes automatically out of every customer conversation

You no longer write up site meetings and customer appointments by hand – clockin creates the minutes and the tasks automatically from the audio recording.

  • Record up to 50 minutes of conversation automatically
  • Save the summary and the transcript straight into the project
  • Derive a concrete to-do list from the conversation

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does clockin help with project time tracking in planning practices?

With clockin you can assign working hours directly to individual projects – on the move as well. That keeps you on top of time spent, project progress and how resources are used. The data helps with internal management and gives you a solid basis for billing or for proof to clients.

Is clockin suitable for smaller architecture practices too?

Yes! clockin is ideal for small and mid-sized practices looking for a simple, digital solution for time tracking and documentation without a lot of IT effort. The intuitive operation makes for a quick start – even for teams with no technical background.

Can employees record hours while they are out?

Absolutely. Hours can be recorded on the move in the app – for example at site meetings, on job sites or in a customer meeting. The entries are visible in the system immediately and can be broken down by project and activity.

I jump between projects a lot – can I split my hours flexibly?

Yes. You can create as many time entries per day as you like and switch flexibly – for example from site management on the job site back to the office for planning or customer meetings.

How safe is our data?

clockin works in line with the GDPR and stores all data on secure servers in Germany. Only authorised people in your company have access to the data – you keep full control.

What advantages does clockin offer over manual methods such as Excel or paper timesheets?

With clockin you save time, avoid errors and create transparency: hours are recorded reliably, activities are documented and reports are generated automatically. That cuts down on queries, simplifies billing and gives you more time for your projects.

Can I keep a digital construction diary with clockin as well?

You do not need a separate construction diary with clockin: you record activities, photos and notes directly on the relevant project – in chronological order and traceable at any time. For recurring routines such as site inspections or acceptance you can also use your own checklists.
