What's new
1.0.11Plugin settings now show up in Obsidian's settings search, so you can find options like hour height, invoice folder, or clients without scrolling the tab. This release requires Obsidian 1.13.0 or later.
Your saved settings, clients, projects, and activities carry over unchanged, and existing markdown entries need no migration.
Drag out your day
The timeline scrolls forever in both directions. Drag across an empty stretch to log an entry, drag it to move it, pull an edge to change its length.
- Tag each entry with a client, project, and activity, plus an optional link to a note.
- Overlapping entries are caught as you make them, so you can't double-book yourself.
- Late nights are fine: entries can run past midnight.
- 12- or 24-hour times, and a week that starts on Monday or Sunday.
Plain markdown, all the way down
Every entry is a row in a monthly markdown file in your vault. You can read it, edit it by hand, diff it in git, and keep it forever.
No database, no sync service, no export step. If the plugin ever disappears, your hours don't.

Pick a date range and get your hours broken down by client, then project, then activity. Expand any level to dig in.
- Hours and billable amounts at every level.
- Export to CSV or JSON when your accountant asks for timesheets.
Bill for it
Any client with billable time gets an Invoice button in Reports. Enter a number and payment terms, and the plugin writes a markdown invoice you can export to PDF.
- Line items grouped by project, hours times rate, in the client's currency.
- Due dates worked out from the payment terms.
- Not billing anyone? Switch billing off and rates and invoices disappear. Your details are kept for later.

What it deliberately isn't
A stopwatch
There's no start/stop timer. You log time after the fact, the way most people actually remember their day.
A task manager
It doesn't scan your vault or hook into task plugins. You say what you worked on and when; it writes a row.
A service
No account, no telemetry, no upsells, no team features. It works offline and loads instantly.
Install it in a minute
- In Obsidian, open Settings and go to Community plugins.
