How Freelancers Bill Accurately with Tomatoro

If you bill by the hour, your timer is your invoice. Round down and you work for free; round up and you risk a client's trust. Accurate, effortless tracking fixes both.

Track as you work, not from memory

Reconstructing your week on Friday is a recipe for lost hours. Start a pomodoro when you start a task, and your billable time records itself — no end-of-week guesswork.

Tag time by client and project

This is where Tomatoro Premium earns its keep. Tag each session with a task and category — "Acme · design," "Beta Co · revisions" — and every client's hours add up on their own.

Hand clients proof, not estimates

A vague "about 12 hours" invites pushback. A clean per-task breakdown — exported as a PDF — shows exactly where the time went. Clients pay faster when the work is visible.

Keep a full year of records

Tax season, disputes, retros: you'll want history. Premium keeps a full year, so last quarter's hours are one click away.
