Toggl is time tracking software. You start a timer with one click, or let it record your work in the background, and then use the data for billing, reports, project budgets and team capacity. It has a free plan for up to 3 users.

Who is Toggl for?

Toggl suits people who need to know where their hours go. That includes freelancers who bill clients by the hour, and agencies, consultancies and software teams that want to price projects on real data rather than memory. It is not built for employee surveillance: Toggl says it never takes screenshots or logs keystrokes.

What has changed at Toggl?

For years most people knew the company's time tracker as Toggl Track. Today the flagship product is simply called Toggl (earlier named Toggl 2.0 and Toggl Focus). It extends time tracking with project management, capacity planning and project dashboards, and it is the default for new sign-ups. Toggl says Toggl Track is not being sunset: existing users can keep using it, as can existing Toggl Plan users.

What are Toggl's main features?

Time tracking

You can track time from the web app, desktop and mobile apps or a browser extension that adds a timer to other online tools. Entries can be live or added by hand afterwards. Calendar events from Google and Outlook can become entries with one click. If you forget a timer, idle detection flags the time your device sat unused. Reminders nudge people whose tracked hours fall below a target.

Reports and profitability

Reports group time by project, client, team or tag, and you can export them as PDF, CSV or Excel files. Starter adds billable rates. Premium adds labor costs, profitability reports and project dashboards that compare estimates with actual time, so you see early when a project runs over budget.

Planning and capacity

Boards, timelines and a calendar planner let you plan tasks next to the time you track. Time off and public holidays feed into capacity, and the Capacity Management add-on forecasts workload and profit months ahead.

Integrations and AI

Toggl integrates with tools such as Jira, Asana and GitHub and offers an API. Toggl AI answers plain-language questions about your time data. An MCP server lets AI assistants read and update your entries, projects and reports.
