Connect each project’s hours, scope changes and invoices to the people who worked on it.
A software development company sells people’s time against a statement of work, and the facts behind each invoice sit in the tracker, the timesheet and the founder’s head. The software we would build holds every project’s scope, rate and team in one record. It counts billable hours against the plan, logs change requests, shows the bench, and shows margin by project before the month closes.
Your product is delivery. Revenue depends on how many hours of which person reach an invoice, and on how much extra work the client asked for that never reached a bill.
A project register built around your own contract types is the base. Fixed bid, time and material, and retainer projects each get their own billing rule, so a report is not rebuilt in Excel every month-end.
A client signs a statement of work, and the delivery head staffs a team from whoever is free. Developers, testers and a designer log their time in a tracker. Sprints run, builds go to staging, and the client reviews on a call. Work promised in the SOW is clear. Work asked for on Slack or in a stand-up is murkier, and it is built first and discussed later.
At month-end an account manager collects hours from the tracker, matches them to the rate card, and sends the invoice. Fixed-bid projects are billed on milestones that need a client sign-off. Between projects, people wait on the bench, and nobody can say which skills will be free next month.
Access has to be kept tidy as well. Repositories, cloud accounts and client VPNs are opened at joining and have to be closed at exit.

Can it pull hours from Jira, Linear or our own tracker?
Yes, where the tracker exposes an API. The connection is scoped per tool during implementation. Some teams keep the tracker for tasks and let this system hold only hours, contracts and invoices.
Will it post invoices to Tally?
Nothing connects to Tally directly. A file of invoices and receipts for your accountant is separate, priced work added at set-up. Many firms invoice from here and let the accountant import the file.
Is this a project management tool like Jira?
No. Keep your task tracker for sprints and tickets. This holds the commercial side: contracts, hours, change requests, allocation, invoices and margin.
Can it handle invoices in dollars or pounds?
Yes, a client can be set up with a billing currency and a rate card in it. How the foreign receipt is recorded in your books is a question for your accountant.
What happens in the free technology audit?
We look at the software, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups your business runs on today and write down what works, what slows your team down and what is missing. A demo login, a screen-share or a few screenshots are enough to start. You get a report ordered by priority, and there is no obligation to hire us afterwards.
How much will the software cost?
We don’t publish a price, because it depends on what the system has to do. The audit settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.
