Accountancy

You help clients all day. Every question counts.

A VAT question by email, a meeting about the annual accounts, an hour inside a client file. Half5 puts each one on your timeline as a suggestion, even in deadline week. You pick the client and confirm.

It's March. Your calendar is full, your timesheet empty.

In the busiest weeks, writing down hours is the first thing to go. That's exactly when most of the work happens in between.

Half5 lines up meetings, emails and file work as suggestions. You check the client and the duration.

How it works in your field

From client question to invoice, without retyping.

Half5 fits the way a firm already works: per client, per engagement, with a review before anything is invoiced.

In the app

You work. Half5 lines up your day.

The desktop app on your Mac or Windows PC notices which programs, websites, files, commits and AI sessions there were. Your calendar and phone add meetings, visits and drives. Half5 turns that into suggestions, one per block of work.

One calm look a week.

Managers see what each person logged per week, with leave and drives alongside. Approve, or decline with a reason. Someone else approves your own hours. The timeline behind those hours is not visible to them.

Privacy

Trust is your trade. Inside your own firm too.

Your timeline lives only on your own devices and syncs end-to-end encrypted. Nobody at the firm can open it, not a partner, not an admin, and not Half5. The firm only sees the hours you submit.
