What Timing is

Timing automatically records the active apps, documents, and websites used on a Mac so you can review time spent on projects and activities. AI summaries group related activity and surface topics that can become time entries. You can add offline time or run manual timers, then export reports as PDF, XLSX, CSV, or HTML for timesheets and invoices. Timing can track calls, meetings, calendar events, and reminders, with prompts after calls. Listed integrations and automation options include ClickUp, Linear, Clio, GrandTotal, Zapier, AppleScript, a Web API, and MCP. Activity stays on the Mac unless Sync is enabled; private browser-tab information is discarded, and activities can be excluded. Optional Sync uses TLS in transit and AES-256 at rest, but is not end-to-end encrypted. AI summaries use Google Vertex AI on EU servers; submitted data is not used to train models and is deleted after a short period. Automatic tracking requires macOS, while the web app provides timers and synced data. There is no free plan, but a 30-day trial is available.

Verdict

Timing focuses on Mac-based automatic tracking with reporting, privacy controls, and automation connections. The web app extends timers and synced data, but full automatic capture depends on the native Mac app.
