From losing 15% of billable time to capturing every minute. Revenue up 18% in one quarter.

We were hemorrhaging billable hours. Attorneys would forget to log 6-minute phone calls, quick emails, brief research—it all added up to 15% revenue leakage. Everhour made tracking effortless. Now our team logs time immediately after each task, right from their workflow. After implementing Everhour, our billable hours increased 18% in Q1—not because people worked more, but because we finally tracked everything. The firm collected an additional $45K that quarter from time we would have previously lost.
