For consultants on retainers
What is each client really paying you per hour?
TimerMVP turns the hours you track into your real rate on every client and retainer. See who's worth it, who's gone quiet, and where the week actually went.
Built by a consultant who has tracked 3,000+ sessions in it. Read why

What does your retainer really pay you?
Your real rate
$75/hr
That's 50% of your $150 rate. About 20 of those hours were free work.
This is what knowing looks like.
Your dashboard answers business questions, not just “how many hours.” Every number comes from a timer you started and stopped.
Real rate per client
Retainer divided by the hours it actually took, updated every session.
Retainer income
This month against last, and how much of it rides on one client.
Clients gone quiet
Paying clients you haven't logged time for lately, before they churn.
Are You Running Your Business,
or Guessing?
Flying Blind
- “I worked about 30 hours this week... I think”
- “Client A is probably my biggest account”
- “My rate is $150/hr... on paper”
- “I was busy all week... doing what, exactly?”
- Sound familiar?
Total Clarity
- 38.5 hours tracked across 6 clients
- Client A: 14.2 hrs at a $142/hr effective rate
- Client B: 8.1 hrs at $89/hr. Time to renegotiate
- Best day: Wednesday, 8.5 focused hours
The Difference
Data, not feelings.
Track
Every minute, tied to a client.
A timer runs in the top bar on every page, tied to a client and tagged. Below it, every session from the last 90 days, colour-coded by client.
Plan
Plan the week, then see what really happened.
Plan the week by day, tag items to clients, close out each day, and see who you are waiting on. The score tells you how the week really went.
A note from the founder
You don't perform until you know your numbers.
TimerMVP started as a piece of paper. When I was managing over a dozen retail stores across two states, I printed a simple weekly planner every Monday morning. One sheet, one week at a time. It kept me organized while I was responsible for millions in revenue and dozens of employees.
When I moved into consulting with 20+ clients, paper couldn't keep up. I needed timers, real hourly rates, and reports I could pull in seconds. So I built TimerMVP, and every layer of that paper system is in the app.
I run my own business inside it every day. I've logged more than 3,000 sessions, and almost every feature came from that or from someone replying to one of my emails. If there's a question you wish it could answer, tell me. I read every one.

Founder, TimerMVP
Up and running before your next meeting.
There is no import wizard to fight and no setup call to book. Three steps, then you are tracking.
01
Add your clients and rates
Name, hourly rate, billing increment, and a retainer if there is one. Each takes about thirty seconds. Rates are snapshotted on every session, so raising a rate later never rewrites history.
02
Start a timer when you start working
Pick the client, add a note about what you are doing, and press start. Pause for a break, run a second timer for an interruption, stop when you are done. That is a complete, billable session.
03
Read the scoreboard on Friday
Hours by client, your effective rate on every retainer, what you planned against what you actually did. Export the report, bill with confidence, and plan next week with real numbers.
