What Rize is

A time tracker you do not have to operate. It runs in the background, works out what you were working on, and produces billable hours and reports without anyone remembering to press start.

The vendor states there is no screenshot monitoring, which is the main reason some teams will consider it over alternatives.

What you can do with it

  • Track working hours automatically
  • Generate billable time from tracked activity
  • Produce reports for clients or internal review
  • See focus patterns across the day
  • Review how a team's time is distributed
  • Connect to other tools

Who it is for

  • Agencies billing by the hour
  • Freelancers and consultants
  • Professional services teams
  • Individuals who forget to start timers

What to watch out for

  • Automatic classification is approximate: check billable hours before invoicing
  • Teams should agree what is recorded, who sees it and how long it is kept
  • Time data should not be used as the sole basis for performance judgement
  • Even without screenshots, activity tracking is monitoring and needs to be disclosed

Pros & cons

✓ What we like

  • No timer to remember
  • No screenshot monitoring
  • Billable hours and reports built in
  • Useful focus analysis

! What to watch out for

  • Automatic categorisation needs checking before invoicing
  • Activity tracking still needs disclosure to staff

FAQ

Does it take screenshots?

No. The vendor states there is no screenshot monitoring.

Can I bill from it directly?

Billable time can be generated, but check the categorisation before it reaches an invoice.

What should a team agree first?

What is recorded, who can see it, how long it is kept, and that it will not be the basis for performance decisions.
