One click in the player or task card starts logging time.
Switch between tasks
The active timer pauses automatically when you switch context.
Review entries
See a breakdown of hours per task, project, or team member.
Bill with confidence

One-Click Timer on Every Task
Start and stop a timer with a single click from any video task. The timer runs while you work and automatically associates the time entry with the correct project, task, and team member. No manual data entry, no switching to a separate app, no forgetting to start the clock.
Time entries include start time, end time, duration, and optional notes. Editors can annotate what they worked on during each session, creating a detailed log that is useful for billing, capacity planning, and project retrospectives.
If you forget to stop the timer, you can edit entries after the fact. The system is designed to be forgiving because real work does not always follow perfect tracking habits.
Project and Task Level Reporting
See total time spent at the project level, the task level, or across the entire workspace. Break down time by team member to understand who spent how long on what. These reports answer the questions that matter for project management: Are we over budget? Who is overloaded? How long do revisions actually take?
Time data paired with version history tells a powerful story. You can see that version one took 8 hours, but client revisions required another 12 hours across three rounds. This kind of insight is essential for accurate project scoping and pricing future work.
Automation-Driven Time Events
Connect time tracking to workflow automations. Automatically start a timer when a task enters "In Progress" and stop it when the status changes to "Review." Log time events when specific actions occur, like when an editor opens a task or when a review is submitted.
These automation-driven time events ensure consistent tracking without relying on human memory. Even on the busiest production days, the system captures time data accurately because it is tied to actions that are already happening.
Accurate Client Billing
For studios that bill by the hour, accurate time data is not optional. RecReview gives you reliable records that stand up to client scrutiny. Time entries are tied to specific tasks and versions, so you can justify every hour on an invoice with concrete work product.
Pull up per-task and per-project time summaries and use them directly in client conversations. When a client questions why a project took longer than estimated, you have a detailed breakdown showing exactly where the time went, including revision rounds triggered by their own feedback — and delivery webhooks carry hours tracked to your external systems. Feed this data into production analytics for deeper insights.
Frequently asked questions
Can I track time for multiple tasks in a day?
Yes. Start and stop timers on different tasks throughout your day. Each entry is logged independently with its own start time, end time, and task association. You can only have one active timer at a time to prevent overlapping entries.
Can I edit time entries after the fact?
Yes. If you forget to start or stop a timer, you can manually adjust the time entry. Add notes explaining the correction to keep your records transparent.
Does time tracking integrate with billing?
Time summaries give you the detail needed for hourly billing — per-task and per-project breakdowns you can reference when invoicing. Delivery webhooks also include total hours tracked, so external systems can pick the numbers up automatically.
