Time tracking with AI
Log hours of in-house technicians and subcontractors on project and work part in a single sentence. No more typing timesheets — straight into Exact Online Construction.
Time tracking is a daily frustration
Logging hours is essential for project results and invoicing, but the threshold is high: filling timesheets takes time, errors are common, and hours often arrive late in Exact.
Timesheets on Friday afternoon
Technicians fill timesheets after the fact — forgotten tasks, wrong projects, estimates instead of actual hours.
Project-work part mismatch
Hours land on the wrong work part. Margin analyses no longer add up.
Subcontractor hours processed late
Hour and cost lines from freelancers only arrive at invoicing — no real-time cost monitoring.
Wrong invoicing
Late hour entries lead to incorrect client invoices or post-hoc corrections.
Log hours via natural language
Connect your AI assistant to Exact Online Construction via the MCP protocol. Log hours with one sentence, from site or desk.
