Time audits, meeting costs, focus plans, energy scheduling — type your problem and get a straight, no-hype answer in seconds. The full detailed report costs less than a cup of coffee: $2.95.
Most people can only guess where their week goes, and attention is a poor self-reporter: meetings feel shorter than they are, email feels smaller, and the 'other' bucket quietly eats whole days. A time audit replaces that guess with a week of honest logging across just four buckets — deep work, shallow work, meetings and everything else. This guide walks you through the logging method, the weekly totals that matter, and the single change most people should make first. One typical week is enough to show you the pattern.
Log a week of your hours with this simple audit process and see exactly where the time actually goes — meetings, email, small tasks, focus and everything in between. No apps required.
One typical week is enough. The goal is a pattern, not a perfect record — a Monday-to-Friday log across four simple buckets will reliably show where your hours actually go.
No. A page with four columns, or a note on your phone, works as well as any app. Logging as you go and keeping each entry under a minute matters far more than the tool you log in.
Total each bucket, work out the percentages, and look for the two biggest surprises. Then choose exactly one change for next week — the audit is diagnostic, and one honest adjustment beats a dramatic overhaul.
Every tool answers instantly from our own knowledge and calculators — no AI wait, no account. Rest is productive: these tools free your time, they do not fill it. Want the deeper, personalised version? Each has a $2.95 full report.
