Why teams switch

Keep hours safe, accurate, and ready for inspection

Apprentices lose progress when paper binders disappear. Program managers lose weeks chasing updates. This keeps every hour organized and exportable whenever you need proof.

Paper hourbooks get lost

Keep every hour stored securely with instant PDF and CSV exports.

Category requirements change

Start with state + trade templates, then tailor categories once.

Audit season turns chaotic

Cohort summaries and export history keep audits calm and fast.
Built for both paths

One hourbook for apprentices and the teams that manage them

Whether you're logging your own hours or managing a program, the workflow stays fast and audit-ready.
