TimeRetain

Keep a private record of your own work.

Record focused work, meetings, reviews, and the interruptions around them. TimeRetain gives you a private timeline that you can check at the end of the day or week.

  • Concurrent day and task timers

    Run a stopwatch for your full workday, then start separate concurrent timers for individual meetings and project tasks.

  • Timelines and activity tags

    Group work into project timelines and tag entries with labels like Meetings, Focus, or Reviews to see where your hours went.

  • Weekly coverage analytics

    Filter by week or month to inspect hours across tags and projects. Bring clear summaries to your weekly 1:1 meetings.

Calendar events record scheduled time. They do not record preparation, overruns, or the time that you need to return to focused work. By Friday, these missing blocks can make the week difficult to explain.

Start and stop a private timer as your work changes. Use tags and short notes to see which parts of the week took your time, without giving an employer a monitoring dashboard.

Start a work log only you control.

The timer runs in this browser. There is no employer login, manager dashboard, or automatic screen capture.
