A calm, focused, AI-first time tracker. Start a timer in one tap or let your AI agent keep time for you over MCP — then see where your hours go, no guilt, no busywork.
What it does
Tickbird turns where your hours go into something calm and worth reviewing — and it speaks the language of your tools. Track the work yourself in one tap, or let your AI assistant keep time for you.
It's built to track the work, not the worker: a light, focused way to capture your hours and a calmer way to look back on them. Answer "What are you working on?" and you're tracking — stop, switch, or pick up where you left off with no friction.
When it's time to look back, reports show you where the week went across projects and clients, with billable hours that line up to the minute.
Key Features
- One tap to start — answer a single prompt and you're tracking; stop, switch, or resume without friction
- Reports worth reading — see where the week went across projects and clients, with billable hours down to the minute
- Agent-native — your AI assistant can start timers and log work for you over MCP, no context-switching
- CLI — start, stop, and review time straight from your terminal; one binary, no Node required
- Public API — a clean REST API to pull your time data into invoices, dashboards, and your own tools
- Free to start — start your first timer today at no cost
Built for AI agents
Tickbird ships an MCP server, so the assistant you already work with can track time the moment you mention it — no tab-switching, no forgotten timers. Say "Track my time on the landing page redesign" and your agent starts the timer. Log past work, switch projects, or stop the clock, all in plain language.
It's built on the Model Context Protocol, so it works with any MCP-capable client.
Integrations
Tickbird fits the way you build. Start with the MCP server, the CLI, and the public REST API today. Webhooks are on the way — getting a ping when timers start or stop, or when budgets run low, so nothing slips by.
Status
