THE PROBLEM

Where consulting income leaks

  • Hours that never make the invoice

    A quick call here and a document review there are billable, if you can remember them on invoice day.

  • Retainers invoiced by hand

    A monthly retainer is simple, until the month you forget to send it.

  • Proposals copied from an old file

    Reusing the last client’s proposal and hunting for their name in it is how mistakes reach a new client.

FAQ

Questions consultants ask

Can I bill different rates for different work?

Yes. Each time entry can carry its own hourly rate, so different clients or kinds of work bill at different rates, and the timer rounds up to the increment you choose.

Can I bill a retainer plus extra hours?

Yes. A recurring invoice covers the retainer, and extra hours become their own draft invoice from your unbilled time.

Does it work for one person?

Yes. Free is just you, with unlimited invoices and time tracking for up to 10 clients and vendors combined. Team members come with paid plans.

Can I export my data?

On Pro and Business, download customers, invoices, time, mileage, reports and more as CSV. Every plan can download a full copy of its data from Settings.

Can clients pay online?

Not through Intralyn yet. Your invoices show your own payment instructions, such as check, bank transfer or Zelle, and you record each payment as it arrives, including partial payments.
