Time Tracking for Freelancers
Who'd Rather Be Working
Every hour you spend on billing is an hour you didn't bill. Miru gets you back to the work that matters — and makes sure you get paid for all of it.
Lost hours are lost money
Freelancers who reconstruct timesheets from memory bill for 15-25% fewer hours than freelancers who track in real time. At $100/hour, that's $15,000-40,000 per year in unbilled work. Not theoretical money. Real invoices you never sent because you forgot the 30 minutes you spent on a client call or the hour debugging a staging issue.
Then there's the invoicing itself. You open a spreadsheet template. You manually enter line items. You format it as a PDF. You email it. You wait. You follow up. You wait more. The whole process takes an hour per client, every billing cycle. That's time you could have spent on billable work.
Track time. Send invoices. Get paid.
Miru replaces your timer app, your invoice template, and your payment processor with one tool that costs nothing for solo freelancers.
Track every billable minute
One-click timer or CLI — whatever fits your workflow. Two seconds to start, two seconds to stop. No more Friday afternoon timesheet archaeology where you guess what you did on Tuesday.
Invoices from your hours
Select the client, pick the date range, review the line items, send. Your tracked time becomes a professional invoice in under a minute. No spreadsheets. No copy-pasting.
Get paid in days, not weeks
Every invoice includes a Stripe payment link. Clients click "Pay Now" and you have money in your account within 48 hours. No more "check is in the mail" waiting games.
Know which clients are worth it
Revenue reports by client, project profitability, billable vs non-billable breakdowns. See exactly where your time goes and which relationships actually make you money.
Expenses that save you at tax time
Log expenses against projects as they happen. Software subscriptions, stock photos, domain names — all tagged and exportable. Your accountant will send you a thank-you card.
The math for freelancers
Miru is completely free for up to 5 users. If you're a solo freelancer, that means $0/month. Forever. No credit card. No trial period. No "free for 14 days then $15/month" bait-and-switch. Just a tool that works.
Compare that to FreshBooks at $17-55/month, Harvest at $10.80/month, or Toggl at $9/month (without invoicing). Miru is the only tool that gives you time tracking, invoicing, expenses, and payments for free.
I was spending two hours every month on invoicing. Now it takes ten minutes. The Stripe integration alone cut my average payment time from 30 days to 5 days. I should have switched years ago.
