⏱ Clocker

Site time, straight into Zoho Books.

Your crew clocks in on their phones — on a roof, in a basement, with no signal — and the hours land in your own Zoho Books as time entries you can bill from. No second system to reconcile, no spreadsheets on a Friday.

30 days free. No credit card required.

Your data stays in your own Zoho organisation.

📴

Works with no signal

Everything is stored on the phone first and sent when there is a connection. A basement does not cost anybody their afternoon.

📍

Knows where they are

The project is guessed from where the phone is standing, and learns from where each person has actually worked before. Clocking in is one tap.

🖥

One screen for the whole crew

Put a tablet or an old PC on the wall. Everybody types their own PIN — no names on the screen — and it locks itself again seconds later.

Bills that write themselves

Turn unbilled time into vendor bills in Zoho Books: one bill per person, one line per entry, the project named on every line.

👥

Everyone sees their own

Staff see the projects they are assigned to. Managers see every hour on theirs. Admins see the lot.

Your Zoho, your data

Clocker connects to your own Zoho Books organisation and writes into modules it creates there. Nothing lives anywhere else.

🧾

Freelancers too — without buying them Zoho seats

The people clocking in do not have to be your employees, and they never need a Zoho Books login. Subcontractors, agency crew, a mate helping out for a fortnight: give them a Clocker account and their hours arrive as vendor bills you can pay. Add as many as you like — Clocker does not count users, and your Zoho bill does not move.

A running timer on a phone, showing the project, its address and the hours so far. — One tap to start. Switch site without a gap in the day.

The project picker, listing projects with their street addresses. — Every project shows where it is — office names mean little on site.

The time list, with unbilled and billed totals above it. — What is unbilled, at a glance, over any period.

Everything Clocker does.

A time clock built for people who work away from a desk, and for the office that has to bill what they did. It lives inside your own Zoho Books — no second ledger, no export step.

Your crew, your subcontractors, and anyone else

The people clocking in do not have to be on your payroll, and none of them needs a Zoho Books login. That matters, because Zoho charges per user and a crew of fifteen would cost more in seats than the work is worth tracking.

Unlimited people, no Zoho seats

Clocker keeps its own accounts in a module it creates in your organisation. Add ten people or a hundred: your Zoho subscription does not change, and Clocker does not charge per head either.

Freelancers get paid, not payrolled

Link a freelancer to their vendor record in Books. Their hours become a vendor bill — one bill, one line per entry, the project named on each — ready to pay the way you pay every other supplier.

On site

It works with no signal

Everything is written to the phone first and sent when there is a connection. A basement, a lift shaft, a site with no coverage — none of it costs anybody their afternoon, and nothing has to be remembered and typed in later.

It knows where they are

The project is guessed from where the phone is standing, and it learns: after a few clock-ins it knows the site better than the billing address does. Every project shows its street, because the office's name for a job means nothing to the person standing outside it.

Switch site without losing minutes

Moving from one job to the next is one tap. The old timer stops and the new one starts on the same instant, so a day of driving between sites still adds up exactly.

Kiosk mode

Put a tablet on the wall, or an old Windows PC in the corner of the workshop. It is the same Clocker at your-company/kiosk — nothing to install.

A PIN, and nothing else

No list of names to tap first: somebody types their PIN and it knows who they are. Quicker, and quieter — a screen on a wall no longer publishes your roster to everyone walking past.

It forgets them in seconds

A countdown runs the whole time somebody is signed in and resets whenever they touch the screen. Ten seconds after they walk away, the tablet is locked again and holds nothing about them.

A PIN can clock, and only clock

Clocking in, out and switching project — that is all it opens. Reading somebody's hours or changing their password needs their password, on their own device.

Start on the wall, finish on your phone

Clock in on the way past and the timer is already running when you open the app in the van. Same record, either end.

Getting paid for it

Bills that write themselves

See what is unbilled, per person, then turn it into vendor bills in Zoho Books in one go. Every time entry becomes a line with its project named, so the bill explains itself to whoever approves it.

Delete a bill and the time comes back

Bills get redone. When one is deleted in Books, the hours on it go back to unbilled and are picked up by the next run — rather than vanishing into a bill that no longer exists.

Everyone sees their own

Staff see the projects they are assigned to and their own hours. Managers see every hour on the projects they run. Admins see the lot.

Unbilled time listed per person, ready to generate bills from.

The details that get in the way otherwise

Corrections

Times can be fixed afterwards — a forgotten clock-in rewound, a stop time corrected, an entry deleted. Anything already on a bill is locked.

Installs like an app

Add it to the home screen and it opens like any other app. It is a web page, so there is nothing to update and no store to wait for.

Your branding

Your company's name and logo, taken from Zoho Books, on the screen your crew signs in to.

Your own sign-in link

Every company gets its own address. Send it once; the app remembers which company the phone belongs to.

Nothing is lost

Unsent time is kept on the device and shown as such. A cloud on the Time tab says whether everything has reached Books.

Passwords stay on the phone

Passwords and PINs are stretched on the device; only a derived proof is ever sent. Your Zoho credentials never leave your Zoho account.
