Did you check out Hours? That could cover your time tracking needs.

Then the only thing that would remain is to take the hours registered in Hours and stuff them into invoices somehow...



I hadn't seen that before. Time tracking is probably the harder part to make a polished solution. Invoicing is much less frequent, and while I'm using to a desktop app now, I could live with a web app.

Time tracking though - if it's not a button in my menu bar I can click start on (and helpful stuff like noticing inactivity and pausing/prompting etc) I'm going to forget to enter times.

I've wondered sometimes if it'd be possible to fork the toggl desktop app (its open source) and reverse-engineer a backend to support it (or just update the desktop app with new backend calls).
