TimeWise Time Tracker for Tana

You keep your tasks in Tana — you should be able to track your time in Tana too

Forget about using external time-tracking apps. TimeWise is a plug-in template that works on top of the task system you already have — and takes less than five minutes to set up.

The daily tax

Your tasks live in Tana. Your timer doesn't

If the work already lives in Tana, tracking the time somewhere else costs you something every single day:

  • You start the task in Tana and forget to hit start in the other app — so the hour never gets counted
  • Your timer app and your task list disagree, and neither of them is the timesheet the client actually asked for
  • Friday arrives and you rebuild the week from memory, browser history and guesswork

Throw away your external time-tracking apps.

Simply track your time in Tana

Easily see where your time is being spent by tracking the time you spend on tasks in Tana.

Track time against tasks with the click of a button

It's as simple as the click of a ▶︎ button. Start working on a task — click the button. Stop working on a task — click the button. Start working on it again — click the button. OK… you get it!

Record multiple time sessions on a task and Tana will add up the total time.

Multiple timesheet views

Easily view your current day and week timesheets in the Timesheet hub. Check what you've been working on during the day, and view everything you've accomplished during the week.

Generate timesheet reports using AI

Gather all your timesheets in one place and generate daily and weekly reports — for clients, for your boss, or just for your own review.

Plug it in to your existing Tana task system

TimeWise is designed as a kind of "plug-in template", so it works on top of any task system you already have set up in Tana. That means no duplicated task supertags and no complicated configuration. And it'll take you less than five minutes to set up.
