Time Tracking and Invoicing Split Across Tools Forces Manual Re-Entry
Freelancers and small businesses track billable hours in one tool then manually copy rates and project data into a separate invoicing app each billing cycle.

The gap between time capture and invoice generation is a persistent friction point in professional services billing.
