Time Tracking for Indie Hackers Balancing Products, Clients, and Experiments
Indie Hackers time tracking
Teetrack helps indie hackers see where their hours go across products, freelance clients, and side experiments — so they can double down on what earns and cut what does not.
Why Indie Hackers struggle with time tracking
Multiple revenue streams but no idea which ones are worth your time
Indie hackers often run a SaaS, take freelance gigs, and experiment with new projects simultaneously. Without tracking time per project, it is impossible to know which stream earns the most per hour invested — and which is quietly draining energy for little return.
Freelance hours are underreported and underbilled
When you switch between your own product and a client project several times a day, freelance hours get rounded down or forgotten. At invoice time, the number feels lower than the effort, but there is no data to prove otherwise.
Building in public but measuring in private
Indie hackers share revenue numbers openly, but rarely track the hours behind them. Knowing your effective hourly rate per project is the difference between a sustainable business and an underpaid hobby.
How Teetrack solves this
- Cannot compare time invested across revenue streams: Create projects for each product, client, and experiment. The summary view shows hours per project so you can compare time investment across all your streams.
- Freelance hours lost in context switching: Use the timer to capture hours as you switch between projects throughout the day. Every minute is logged to the right project — no more reconstructing time at month end.
- Freelance invoicing takes time away from product work: Generate invoices directly from tracked freelance hours. Line items, totals, and client details are ready — you just review and send.
