TimeTracker
Self-hosted time tracking software for teams that own their hours.
TimeTracker is a self-hosted, open-source web application for time tracking, project management, and invoicing. It addresses the need for teams to own their time and billing data, removing reliance on external software vendors and per-seat licensing. The application is designed to be deployed on a user's own hardware, keeping all data under their control.
Key features include one-click timers with persistent server-side tracking, idle detection, and manual entry. It offers project and task management with Kanban boards, budget tracking, and client management. The invoicing module generates PDF invoices from tracked time, supports multiple currencies, and includes Peppol e-invoicing support. Reporting provides visual dashboards, budget forecasting, and CSV export. The application supports role-based access control, audit logs, and integrates with SQLite or PostgreSQL databases. It is built with Python (Flask) and offers a REST API.
TimeTracker is intended for freelancers, agencies, and teams that require data privacy or have compliance needs. It is free and open source under the GPL-3.0 license, with no per-seat fees or premium features locked behind a paywall. The software is packaged for self-hosting via Docker, with no free plan or trial offered as it is entirely free to use and modify.
