Business tool for freelancers and the self-employed
Timerr shows you what you actually earn.
See your real hourly rate, which clients are worth keeping, and where your hidden hours pile up. Stop guessing whether it adds up.
A quick bit of math
You quoted 8 hours at 800 kr/h.
With emails, travel, revisions and admin, the job took 14 hours.
Your real rate: 457 kr/h, not 800.
The 6 extra hours? Here is where they went.
Think about your last project. How many of those hours never made it onto the invoice?
Free. No signup. 2 minutes.
The ongoing loop
Set a goal. Log the time. Find the holes. Repeat.
Timerr doesn't just look back. It helps you earn more, project by project.
Set a goal
You say what you want to earn. Timerr works out the rate and turns it into a daily goal you can hit.
Log the work
Tell your AI what you did, or track the time yourself. Every hour ties to a project, a task, and whether it's billable.
Find the holes
See exactly where the money leaks (free revisions, transport, "just a quick thing") and close them in the next quote.
Recognition
It's the small things that creep into your projects.
Each one can feel trivial, but together they cost you more than you think.
The three places it happens:
"Could you just..."
Just tweak the logo, just move the button, just a quick call. Every time it's five minutes, and every time you don't write it down.
Everything around the task
Emails back and forth, the meeting that ran an hour, the drive there and back. You did the work, but it never made the invoice.
Where did the hours go?
You worked hard last week. You just can't remember what all those hours went to. So you don't know if it was worth it.
The more you do for a client, the more of those small things add up. So it's often your best client you do the most free work for.
It's not catastrophic in a week.
But it is over a year.
When emails, transport, revisions, and quotes are counted in, most freelancers land 30-40% below their desired rate.

How your business evolves once you start seeing your real numbers.
You log your first hour. You immediately see your real hourly rate. It is lower than you thought.
You discover which clients are actually profitable, which ones are not. Three of your projects are over budget, and you can see why.
You have turned down two projects, raised the price for one client, and your real hourly rate has risen from 287 to 412. It was the same throughout your whole career, you just could not see it.

Hi, I'm Mathias.
I built Timerr because I needed it myself. By day I work as a software consultant, and I stand in exactly the shoes Timerr is built to help you out of.
The photo is from 2023, when I pitched Timerr at the Danish national championship in entrepreneurship in Copenhagen. 21 teams competed in 3-minute pitches in front of a panel of Danish entrepreneurship veterans. Timerr was awarded a 20,000 kr micro-grant from Fonden for Entreprenørskab for the concept, and the money went straight back into the project.
Got a question or feel something is missing? Send me an email. I usually reply the same day.
